Happy Wife Happy Life

The keys to domestic bliss may include commitment, compromise, and communication, but if you want to keep your Wife really happy it’s the little things! 

I could easily give you a list of things NOT to do, like picking your toes nails in public, farting in the marital bed, or ogling girls, but seriously those are way to common sense.  (and for the record the dutch oven is the only one I have personally had to deal with) Instead I thought I would touch on a few “To Do’s”!  I like those!

-Pick your underwear up off the bathroom floor. I don’t want to pick up the skivvies of my children, I sure as heck don’t want to pick up yours.

– Take the garbage out without whining that you are sick of it it being your job.  Tough.  It is your job, so deal with it.

-Write your gorgeous wife a love letter once in a while.  With a PEN and paper.  Texts and e-mails are totally appreciated, but not nearly as sexy.

-Kiss her hello and goodbye every time you see her!  Every. Time.

-Enjoy dinner together with the Television OFF.  Conversation is good!

-Remember that Golf may be fun, but those clubs won’t keep you warm at night.

-Sometimes a back rub can be just that.  A back rub, we like those.

-Instead of asking “What’s for dinner?” every single night, go ahead and OFFER to cook dinner for her!  Woo hoo.  Huge points!

-Know that it is okay to say No to a “boys night out” in favor of staying home with your family.

-Squish all the scary bugs.

-Investigate all creepy noises.

-Take a turn being the bad guy with the kids.

-Liked that meal?  Go for seconds!  I’ll admit it, I’m not much of a cook, so when I hit on a dish that is worthy of seconds, I am all kinds of proud.

-Remember that a man who bakes and cleans is hot.  Seriously. 

Just plain tell her you love her…..in a hundred different ways.

Sigh. .  Almost 14 years so he must be doing something right…anything I should add to the list to help get us through the next 50 years?
