Some nights, YOU will have the headache!

This thing restarted again... UGH! Off to wedding rehearsal in a bit... wish me luck!

These tips are from The Husband Book: A Guy's Guide To Marriage by Harry Harrison Junior, which I plan to give to my brother for his wedding.


The Best Years

Buy a smaller home. She'll want cozy. You'll love the payments.

Do all the things you couldn't do while there was soccer practice, weekend tournaments, proms, and homework. Like sleep in on Saturdays.

You'll be amazed at how you can love this woman more today than you did twenty-five years ago.

Buy two La-Z-Boys.

Take her shopping at all the places you couldn't afford when you had college-tuition payments.

Make sure your kids understand when and where your monetary support will end. By now, she won't fight you on this.

When the kids come home in the summer, she will act as if they're ten years old and need constant mothering again. If they didn't like it, they wouldn't come home.

Adopt an older dog. Already house-trained.

Enjoy the routine.

You'll notice some nights it's you who has the headache. She won't care.

Take long walks in the park.

Talk about where you really want to live.

When she says she always wants the kids to feel like they have a room of their own, smile and nod.

Make sure she takes her calcium pills.

Go to the mountains in the summer.

Don't put too much faith in the stock market.

Thank God for your marriage every night.


Every Morning

Start a new affair with her.
