Summary

Welcome to Bonus Replays, where we play the most popular episodes from our bonus breakout sessions. Normally, our episodes are for general audiences, but this episode is for wives of any stage, or for women who are engaged to be married. It's great to have a wonderful marriage, but most marriages are not wonderful all day, every day. In fact, a lot of us have experienced some rough waters along the way. People who used to observe "The Taylors" from afar could falsely assume that we were practically trouble-free. Not so. We've had to work hard at learning how to love each other and care for each other sacrificially, as God designed it. After all, marriage is really two selfish people saying "I do" without having a clue! Today I'm sharing some of the dumb things that I did as a newlywed. People may learn from success, but failure is educational, too. Grab a beverage and settle into a comfy chair before listening to this "NOT TO DO" list.

Welcome to bonus replays with Keep the Heart. The bonus episodes are kind of tucked into the podcast

0:05.4

and they don't even always get an ad. So sometimes people only know about them if they

0:10.6

subscribe to Keep the Heart and then they get a podcast ping when the episode is there.

But this episode, dumb things I did as a newlywed, it's time to play it again. How many of you can think of some

0:23.6

things you did when you were a newlywed that make you shake your head? I really wonder sometimes

0:29.5

how did Norman H. Taylor put up with me, but that's a two-way street. I had to put up with some

0:35.6

strange things too. Most of us when we get married,

0:40.2

we say I do, and we haven't a clue what were I doing. This episode's for you if you've been

0:47.5

married for a while, or if you're about to say I do. Let's listen again. Welcome to a bonus episode. Remember, these are not the typical

0:58.1

episode on Keep the Heart podcast, but it's an occasional breakout session, kind of like a

1:03.4

workshop at a ladies' retreat. So the topic today is for wives, and it's dumb things I did as a newlywed. I'm sharing some things that I did

1:13.8

that are really great for the not-to-do list. So grab a beverage and settle into a comfy cheer,

1:20.3

and we'll go over these together. Thank you for joining Keep the Heart for today's podcast with Francie Taylor.

Now, back to today's important study.

1:52.8

Many of you know I'm a widow now, but that actually gives me a lot of experience as far as being a wife.

1:53.5

I was married for 35 years, and there's a lot of things I learned that worked, and I learned

1:58.4

a lot of things that were clunkers, too.

2:01.1

So this is going to be four things that I did as a newlyway that I would say were really not

2:06.7

good ideas. And I'm going to share them in light of scripture, naturally, because I always do.

2:12.4

Are you ready? Number one, I complained about my husband's schedule. Ah, have you done that? Have you said something to your

2:22.1

husband because you don't like how long his day is or how much he travels or something,
