Living together? Not married? Live in Florida? You're breaking the law!

Unmarried couples who want to take the plunge and move in together, take heart. A Florida legislator is seeking to make you legal.
"Cohabitation" of unmarried people is currently a second-degree misdemeanor, punishable by $500 or up to 60 days in jail. The same penalty applies to cheating husbands and wives — though only to opposite-sex couples.
The laws have been on the books since the late 1800s, but are rarely enforced. In 2006, though, a Jacksonville woman did take advantage of the law and have her husband arrested for cheating, according to a news report. (It's not clear how the case came out.)
Now, Rep. Ritch Workman, R-Melbourne, is on a mission to repeal the statutes penalizing adultery and cohabitation, as well as other laws he finds outdated, like a requirement that all bicycle riders keep one hand on the handle bars.
Wonder if other states will follow his lead and start to repeal some of their outdated and dumb laws such as:

Dominoes may not be played on Sunday. (Alabama)

It is illegal to wear a fake mustache that causes laughter in church. (Alabama)

It is illegal to wipe one’s car with used underwear. (San Francisco, CA)

A woman may not buy a hat without her husband’s permission. (Owensboro, Kentucky)

Where has the romance gone?

So the other day I had a revelation told to me my my husband when I asked “Where is the romance?” His response: “I want to  but you’re always home so I can’t surprise you and we don’t have anyone to take care of the kids. Even if we put them to bed, they still keep coming down and talking to us.”
So I thought to myself, “Well, I can’t be the only one out there who has gotten this response from my husband.” Well, it inspired me to write about this topic on my blog. I asked all my guy friends on Facebook, what would they do if they were in this situation?How would they romance their significant other?  Below are there collected answers as I received them. Guys, take note and ladies print this out and tuck it somewhere your significant other will find it.


Y.M.:Cook dinner... Lol... Or arrange a good friend or family member watch the kids as I rent a limo and take u to a spa treatment and after a catered picnic at a park with some nice chilled Pinot grigio

L.S.: I would wink at her and say "you want some of this!"

TJ:get a babysitter and take her out lol

CM:Not sure, since i'm not in that situation but i think as with everything, you have to stay creative, find the romance in everyday life instance and/or find a way to put romance into everyday instances

JO: I walk thru the door to find you knee deep in kids and toys...i pick up the phone and call one of our closest friends to sit with the kids for a few hours...I turn and take over kid duty so that you get a chance to take a long hot shower as... we wait for our friend...once they get to the house I escort you to the car...open your side to let you in....you keep asking where we are going...I simply tell you..."you'll see"...we drive to your favorite restaurant were I have already called ahead to order your favorite meal...a nice bottle of wine...and only candle light to steal romantic glances at each other as we eat...after a wonderful meal...a playful game of footsie under the table...and a shared scope of ice cream...we decide to drive back home...but take our time getting out of the car...after re-enacting a stolen moment before we were married...we sneak to the backyard to enjoy the oversized hammock i set up before hand together under a crisp moon-lit night...after a second trip down memory lane...I open the porch door...but before you cross the door way I steal one last kiss at the base of your neck and whisper to you..."same time next Friday..."........so did I do ok with that scenario?

So I thank the 5 out of 21 men that I asked this to!  This goes to how that there are quite a few men out there that really do not have an inch of romance on them or could care less to romance their significant other. It's a darn shame that romance has truly died.
Yes, a couple are funny, but still they acknowledge doing SOMETHING to get things started!

So I say BRAVO to those that give romance to the ones they love and show them appreciation.  You are a special few.
