bed. We can sometimes have a week of being ships that pass in the night!! We tend to talk about everything and anything, work, family, friends, money! News, food, music, politics. We've been together or almost 11 years, married for 3, and haven't missed a day speaking to each other since we met. I know it would drive some people potty, but it works for us Quite a lot. There's usually a couple of phonecalls during the day - who's picking who up and dropping who off, etc. He's the one I always ring if something funny happens; he'll ring me if there's something on the radio he thinks I might like to hear; we talk in the morning for 5/10 mins after kids have got on schoolbus and before we both leave for work. Then in the evenings when kids are gone to bed, we'll chat about the day, news, money, neighbours etc. We don't talk much during the day, but we email each other lots. One of us goes home at lunchtime for the dog so when we get back email the other to say how the dog was and any news/post from home, have a rant about work or whatever. We always make a point of having tea as a family every night though, and us and our daughter sit for over an hour talking and laughing. It's my favourite part of every day
