We'll Always Work Through It: "Every couple we know has this fantasy of quitting their corporate jobs and finding a way to make a living doing what they love.

Now they’re working on a second property, an inn right outside of Saguaro National Park in Arizona. They’re living the dream. But is the dream as good as everyone imagines it is? Is the reality ever as good as the fantasy? Fixing these houses has taught them how to be comfortable when things go wrong...whether it’s with a home or with their relationship. " by Committed
