Man, my husband was getting on my nerves SO much last week, I could barely even blog. Every post started and ended with “I want a divorce,” then I had to delete them. Because this blog is to help me handle things with humor, not with anger. But as you know, in marriage, sometimes there’s [...]

We’re having a sleepover for my son’s party–it’ll be much less expensive than the hosted party at a party place or even Chuck E. Cheese…Plus, all of his friends have had one, and my son is just dying to have one. I will be here by myself of course with a house full of boys [...]

I just read a really neat article called What Moms Can Learn From Dads.
The article mentions how there are more and more families these days run by stay at home dads. Our family was one of those for a few years, so this topic interests me a lot even now. It was fascinating, though difficult [...]

Last weekend was the first weekend we got to see my husband in over a month! And, ironically, the weekend was HORRIBLE. Saturday was pretty uneventful. My husband slept till 3pm, which was extremely irritating, but I was able to do my work without his help, got it all done, and moved onto Sunday.
Sunday we [...]

I need to start this post by saying that my husband is one of the most WARM and LOVING fathers ever. He’s extremely attentive and dedicated to our boys. When he spends long weeks at work, he insists on spending whole weekends with the boys. I’m always welcome to go along of course, but whether [...]

This is going to be short, though I could easily write eight pages on this topic.
As some of you may know from prior posts, my husband does NO housework. Not even the “man” stuff like mowing (well, he has done that twice in the year we’ve had a lawn–and each instance resulted in daylong dirty [...]

I was so thrilled to read Mathew Baldwin’s recent post on Defective Yeti (hilarious and interesting blog, might I add–do check out his stories about his wife, whom he calls the Queen, especially the story called “Beaurocracy“).
But back to my original point. This writer, tech guy, dad, and husband seems QUITE WITH IT. So when [...]

I am wearing my husband’s underwear today. I hope that’s ok with everyone. No, I’m not talking boxers–which I don’t wear, but which really wouldn’t warrant a post on a blog–well, unless the boxers had pictures of naked girls on them or something. I’m talking standard Hanes briefs. (Not the small briefs, as I wouldn’t [...]

Check out this really interesting article about marriage and relationships from Psychology Today. My favorite quote from the whole article from page 2: Compatibility is overrated.
THANK GOODNESS. I have often become very worried about this very issue in my marriage. My husband and I are quite happy together. But you look around and see those [...]
