Remember, starting Monday October 5th we will be kicking off The Husband Project Challenge- 21 Days of Loving Your Man On Purpose and with a Plan. Win a copy of the book this week or purchase it in my shop (we are having a special to celebrate this month.) But hey, you can do the challenge without the book – but what’s the fun in that?)
Oh, and congrats to Deann, who won Tuesday‘s book!
If you have read The Husband Project, you know that one of the major aspects of the plan is to get together with a few friends and hold each other accountable throughout the 21 days of the project. (And trust me, when you are assigned to be nice to your man for 21 days, you are going to need all the friends you can get in order not to quit…)
Well, you are going to have some MAJOR accountability since y’all are doing the Project with me on the blog. But, it is also good to have one or two friends who are your “fleshy friends”. Women who know you a little bit deeper than a bunch of people (albeit, a rockin’ group of people…) that you don’t know real well.
So while we are all going to have a lot of fun, I want you to get as much accountability around you as possible, from my group, and your own.
To get the word out to your friends so that they can support you and you can support them, I’m going to encourage you with some extra swag and some extra chances to win.
For the next three days, you will be entered into the drawing just by leaving a comment in the section below. All I want to know is who you want to be doing the Project with – your sister, your best friend, or your bestest bloggy friend.
And if you put a link to this post up on Facebook or Twitter (and in a separate comment let me know that you did) I will enter you another time. You can enter up to twice a day. (Cause it is going to be just that much fun.)
On Friday, I will pick three winners, each of whom will receive a Husband Project Gift Pack, including:
-
A Copy of The Husband Project
-
The Husband Project DVD
-
The Husband Project Leader’s CD
-
The Frozen Gourmet

Well I don’t have any friend around here so I am looking forward to doing this project with you. See I (and by I, I mean we, me and my cool 6 year old) just moved here MS… Got married in January and moved together in march or was it April? He is an awesome man that loves the Lord and me, but it seems that we are not on the same page at times (oh and there are many) you know the laundry that doesn’t want to fold itself, the bills, the worries and the ‘rolling logs’ and ‘trebuchets’ of life… so I’ve decided (against my own will) that I have to take this matter and handle it like a man, well, like a woman. I will make this project my mission!
Not so sure I can find an IRL friend to do this with, but I’d love to do this with you on your blog.
I would love to go through this book with my best friend!
Tic, tock, tic, tock here comes the time to do for the other guy. How does this happen when you are mad at the dude? Still ready.
I can think of several friends that NEED to do this with me – they just may not realize it yet…
I posted this on Facebook & CafeMom and have had a great response from my friends!!
Wow, great response from my Facebook link. I have a few friends who are going to do it and one that has done it through her MOPS group where she met you.
Congrats on the PR for The Marriage Project.
Gosh, I know a real life author! 🙂
I posted in the link on Facebook!
I’ll do the project with my friend!
Got another friend to join us! I can hardly wait!
Not sure which “fleshy friends” will join me to do this, but definitely looking forward to doing it through your blog with all the other ladies!
Also have posted link to my Facebook page.
I desparately need (well, want) this as well! Please enter me!
I would love to do this with my sister. We tell each other EVERYTHING!
Can’t wait to start this!
I tweeted again, too.
Entering again! I hope to do this with my 2 closest IRL friends.
I would LOVE to win the book!
Oops. I forgot to say I’ll do it with my old mentor friend. It will be a great way to keep in better touch with her since we don’t live so close anymore. And I’m trying to win the book for her!!
Sounds like a great challenge, I tweeted about it too!
My hubby is definitely on the back burner now. The kids sure keep me hopping (and on the edge of sanity/insanity!)
and I facebooked it!
I would love to do this project with my 2 best friends. We’ve known each other since 6th & 7th grade. The last one of us got married last year so we all have a husband to be nice to!
OK I just invited everyone I know on Facebook too and even sent a message to my married guy-friends to have their wives consider it or contact me.
Started it and got side tracked! I am back on with my gal pals!!
Way cool! I am going to encourage the women on my MOPS Steering Team and in my Discussion Group but will excuse those who have a tiny baby since we have had I think 5 or 6 babes born this month alone! I’ll catch them next time! 😉
Okay Kathi!
I got you linked up on my facebook! Do you think having clean shorts shows the love? I feel like I am someplace under the clean clothes pile today. Looking forward to the project starting on Monday!
I will be doing it with my bestest blogging friend! I’ve done the whole project once before and got half way through when husband was laid off and couldn’t keep the secret any longer. So am doing a “do over.”
Also linked it to my FB!
OHHH, I’m posting a facebook link also as well as on CafeMom!!
I would like to do this with my bestie Cindy and her friend Lisa!
Hey there girlie…hope all is well.
Hugs, Arlean
I’d like to take on this challenge with my 2 best friends!

I want to do the project with my Stampin’ Up Technique Club buddies.
Facebook link up and running!
I have hijacked my best friend Debbie into doing it with us!
I’d love to do this with my sister!
I would love to share this with members of my MOPS group. We have been looking for a book study to do and I think this would be perfect! As mothers of young children we often put our husbands on the back burner and I think your book would help us give him the attention he needs and deserves!
I’m in with 2 hopefully three of my best girlfriends.
I’m in. . . . . would love to get my hands on a copy!!
My friends are all a bit jaded about marriage so I’m not sure if I can talk any of them into doing this project with me, but I would sure welcome some bloggy support. Your book sounds awesome!
About 10 years ago my marriage was in trouble. My husband worked all the time and we just never connected, which of course led to alot of fighting. Then one day I decided that I could not control his actions. The only person I could control was myself. I began to give him the love that I wanted and it worked like a boomerang. That love came right back to me.
Now, because of the economy, we are right back where we were ten years ago with both of us working all the time and just not connecting with each other. Your book and blog remind me of what I need to do. So thank you!
Thanks, Paula for connecting me to this site! I’m willing to give it a try! Maybe our MOPS group would like to do it!
I want to do this with my friends Kathie and Lara
Oh, forgot to say I am linking to FB as well! 😀
I am in with my friend from church!
With my best friend, and I’m going to link this to my FB wall, so I’ll challenge some friends to do this with me!
http://twitter.com/ALH1203/statuses/4495204440
I’ll be doing it with my best blogger friend. 🙂 Looking forward to it!!
I’d love to do this with my sister, but she doesn’t have a husband. So I think I’ll recruit a couple of married friends to step up to the challenge with me.
I’ll either do this with my sister-in-law or a blogger friend.
I just linked this to my FB page and challenge my friends to do it with me. I would really love to this w/my friend from H.S.
Okay, I will link you to my FB. I think I can do it. I am ready for the 21 day challenge. I am ready for a closer bond with the man! I can do it, yes I can!
linked! (I think, lol)
My three bestest buddies from high school!
Lisa, Anna and Kari. I’m getting them on board. We will have so much fun! We’ve been married for as little as 12 years, me, to 25 years for Anna. Lisa and Kari are close to Anna in their 20’s too. Are we really old enough to be married that long. Holy moley!
