Intro

Hey everyone!

My name is Casslyn Fisher. I am from Idaho Falls, Idaho. And family is everything to me!!! I am the oldest of five children, my brother is currently serving his LDS mission in Argentina. I served my mission in Malaga Spain! Spain is a very special place to me for many reasons. One of them being is I met my husband there! He is from Pocatello Idaho. It is pretty funny that two Idahoans had to go to Spain to meet each other! We got married on November 22, 2016! He is the love of my life.
I love doing things outdoors. Four-wheeling, camping, sledding, hiking, etc. If it's in the mountains- count me in! And I also love chocolate... like a lot.
Anyways that's enough about me. Thanks for stopping by, you're more than welcome to stick around for my upcoming posts.

Divorce

When I hear to word "divorce," it makes me rather sad. Divorce is a very difficult time for the couple, the children (if applicable), the extended family, and friends, and basically everyone involved in the couples lives. Now, I do understand that there are times where the divorce is necessary. There may be abuse or some sort of danger in the relationship and it is best to get away. I do understand that there are situations like that, but I believe for the most part divorce comes from the struggles of a couple. There is a process of divorce. Divorce doesn't happen over night. It takes time. Lauer and Lauer mention in their text "Marriage and Family" the the first step in the process is Recognition. Recognition: one or both spouses become aware of serious problems, begin to feel doubt about relationship- 40% of doubts in the first 6 months, 60% in the first year. Doubts are caused by spouse's controlling behavior, lack of responsibility, and lack of emo...

Communication

Communication is a big part in all our lives. There is verbal communication and even non-verbal communication (other forms as well). I do know communicating in a relationship or with your spouse can be tricky at times. Communication is something we need to work on all the time. But how can we be better communicators? What can we do to better understand others, or make sure we don’t hurt someone else’s feelings on accident? In the text by Laurer and Laurer (you know the one I always quote). They had a list of ideas on how we can become better communicators. The list goes as follows… Improving listening skills ·       Take initiative to communicate ·       Resist distractions ·       Control your emotions and tendency to respond before your spouse is finished ·       Ask questions, rephrase for clarity ·       Summarize ·    ...

The Value of Work

When I was younger my parents tried EVERYTHING to try to get my siblings and I to do our chores. For us kids, cleaning the house was the worst thing that could ever happen to us. We would wine and complain every time we were asked to help around the house. We were usually asked to help clean up dinner after we had all ate. And dishes were by far the worst job in the history of jobs. We hated doing the dishes. Then on Saturdays we would have Saturday jobs which meant we had to deep clean the house. We were in charge of our bedroom and another room in the house. We would need to dust and vacuum that room. And looking back on it now, the jobs would have been done really fast. But we would all complain about doing it for a couple of hours, then we would start cleaning. But while we were cleaning we would be crying and complaining about it. I made that sound really dramatic and maybe we were as bad as I made it sound... but we for sure did NOT like it at all!! Now that I am older, I see...
