~~~    From the Editor      ~~~

The good news is that I have finished the romantic bedroom remodel
project I have been working on.  The bad news is that I don’t have
photos to share yet.  Many expressed interest in seeing what I had
done.  Perhaps by next week.

Have a blessed week.  — Michael

Making fun wagers with your loved one as you watch reality TV shows,
betting on who gets booted off next.

~~~  Contest     ~~~

Last weeks contest was on *At Home Dates*.  I received a lot of great
entries.  Unfortunately, due to other pre-baby projects I wasn’t able
to post them on the site or choose a winner.  Next week I hope.

This weeks contest is to guess the weight of our soon coming baby.
Guess the weight in pounds and ounces and put it in the subject field.

Entries must be received by Monday.

The closest guess (or one chosen in case of a tie) of the babys actual
weight when it is born (any day now) will win a trip to
TheRomantic.com’s ever growing PRIZE VAULT which is filled with books,
several board games including Romantic Sensations, An Enchanting Evening and others, CDs, dance lessons and other fun stuff at

~~~  Sponsor      ~~~

One of my favorite market research projects ever is when I got paid to
sit in a room for one hour, listen to music and rate how much I liked
it, then be given a fantastic dinner and then listen to and rate music
for one more hour and get paid $50 to participate.  And I remember one
guy in the room had an envelope with $100 in it taped to the bottom of
his chair as a bonus.

Lots of companies will pay very good money for people to provide
honest feedback for their products.  Athena and I have done it
numerous times, getting paid up to $75 an hour.  Perhaps it might be
something you would like to do.

Lisaday
by Doyle Ferguson
http://www.TheRomantic.com

Schedules around our house, like most houses, is hectic to say the
least.  With 5 children I depend on my Daytimer to make sure I’m in
the right place at the right time so no one finds themselves walking
home from school.

My Daytimer also contains “Lisaday”.  It is the day between Wednesday
and Friday commonly known as Thursday but in my Daytimer, all the
Thursdays have been scratched out and replaced with Lisaday.  It is my
reminder to myself that my lovely wife needs to be shown how much I
love her and just how special she is to me.

Some Lisadays are approached with great planning and designed to
“knock her socks off” and others are expressed with simple notes on
mirrors or car doors.  Funny thing…some of the best Lisadays have
been the ones with the simplest of loving expressions.  “Lisaday”,
it’s my way to remember that my partner for life needs a little
romancing from time to time…  why not on Thursday.
