Obviously, you failed to see there were two separate parts.<BR/><BR/>I am more easier to handle, as I said originally, I'm not fussed about my wallpaper or my flooring:-) I would never explode over wallpaper or flooring, it's meaningless.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Tammy, I would train my husband to treat my house with respect and not mess it up when I've just cleaned it! It's not about domination, it's about Respect. I wouldn't turn up at your house and turn everything upside down, that isn't respect, even if I was paying all your bills. It's rude for a husband to just throw things all over the place, just because he knows his wife will pick it up off the floor. I would ask him where his manners are.<BR/><BR/>It's a sad thing that you cannot see the difference between respect and domination.S E Harveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13353593578893195586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6483426192416204879.post-25390044376434369702009-01-06T20:37:00.000-05:002009-01-06T20:37:00.000-05:00Sarah said, "As much as I'm a feminist, I think I'...Sarah said, "As much as I'm a feminist, I think I'm much more easier to handle than you housewives and here is why..."<BR/><BR/>I disagree that you would be a wife who is "more easier to handle".<BR/><BR/>This comment: "Also, he would met flames of fire from messing up my mopped floor, he would never do it again."<BR/><BR/>and...<BR/><BR/>"Your men need to be house trained."<BR/><BR/>...do not sound like they come from a woman who is "more easier to handle."<BR/><BR/>God's idea of a marriage is not about who is going to dominate, but it's about "Submitting yourselves one to another", each giving to the other, creating harmony and meeting the needs of both.<BR/><BR/>Some husbands have a preference about how the house is decorated, and some just turn all that over to his wife. Jennifer's husband had preferences - and they were wise choices, under the circumstances - and Jennifer was wise to give in. Don't you think that took much more self-control and maturity than blowing up about it?<BR/><BR/>I do.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11972398512692028734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6483426192416204879.post-14936836560303503482009-01-06T14:24:00.000-05:002009-01-06T14:24:00.000-05:00As much as I'm a feminist, I think I'm much more e...As much as I'm a feminist, I think I'm much more easier to handle than you housewives and here is why.<BR/><BR/>As long as my walls are not bare and my floors are covered with carpet, wood flooring or tiles. I'm happy. I really hate wallpaper. <BR/><BR/>If I were married, my husband could do what he likes with the flooring and walls as along as the floor was somewhat easy to clean, I'm happy.<BR/><BR/>You see I refuse to be a slave to any man. He must put all his dirty washing the laundry basket, I will never run around after any man. Also, he would met flames of fire from messing up my mopped floor, he would never do it again. I can't understand how you housewives allow your husband to be messy pigs, honestly. Your men need to be house trained. It's not only about being the main breadwinner it's about respecting their homes and the person who looks after it. Messing up a clean home it's not respecting it or respecting the person who looks after it.S E Harveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13353593578893195586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6483426192416204879.post-64453751404391034012009-01-05T15:43:00.000-05:002009-01-05T15:43:00.000-05:00Hi there!

You're off to a lovely beginning.<BR/><BR/>I might have a little less of a challenge in decorating, for two reasons: one, I don't much care for frilly-fussy schemes, and two, we're a military family who moves too often to do much changing in any place we live!Wenonah4thhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06875282879902158315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6483426192416204879.post-27797032141532010042009-01-05T11:47:00.000-05:002009-01-05T11:47:00.000-05:00Hello, I heard about your new blog from Kelly at G...Hello, I heard about your new blog from Kelly at Generation Cedar.

It stresses me out and I'm not sure how to appoach it in a proper way. I don't want to be the "nag" or sound like his mother, but I also need to find a way to get my home's clutter and mess under control. Any suggestions? :-)<BR/><BR/>By the way, wonderful idea for a blog and I sure am glad Kelly pumped it:-)<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/>SommerSommerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07173085478959089587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6483426192416204879.post-1625215696143024222009-01-05T10:22:00.000-05:002009-01-05T10:22:00.000-05:00I kind of have this issue.

I agreed as long as the kitchen is totally mine. He works hard outside of the home and when he comes home he wants this place to be his refuge (as do I) so he should have it as he likes.Farrahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00884648840608072747noreply@blogger.com
