For the love of Home Ownership

Easy to say and yes I am happy, actually I am ecstatic that I finally entered the home owner elite. Well it seems that way at the moment even though I know we are no more elite than anyone else. In actual fact nothing has really changed. I have to pay money to someone else every month for the privileged of staying in a house. I do not like where I am going with this. I love my new house, all mine now I need to make it my own. The mortgage and insurance are taken care of and I have my new carpets arriving next week so all is well.

Marriage Tips That Men Should Live By

By Bart Icles

Marriage is a two-way street. Period. It's not only the wife who should do all the hard work. A lot of articles and books are written about marriage designed for the women alone, how about the husbands? They are also a part of the whole marriage and working-it-out thing. If you want to keep your wife and make her stay married to you at all costs, you should do all the things necessary to be able to work it out just fine and to have your marriage running smoothly.

Some of the best marriage tips I can give you are:

1. Always remember to say thank you to your wife. How many times has she set the table for you? How many times has she prepared your meals? How many times has she kept your home clean and orderly? How many times has she given you massages and back rubs to soothe your everyday stress? A simple sign that you will be able to show in terms of appreciation of all her hard work will make her work harder and be happy while doing her everyday chores. Just be able to realize how important she is to you and always thank her. This will keep both of you happy.

2. You should not lie about where you are, especially if you are going to go clubbing with your friends. Chances are, you will get caught in the lies that you weave and they will all boomerang on you, big time. Be honest about your whereabouts at all times. Honesty pays. Trust me.

3. Put to heart the things that are important to your wife, even if you think that they are trivial. Without being able to respect those things, your wife would feel that you do not respect her as well. It will put a dent on her ego and, worse, on your marriage.

4. Do not get involved in a flirtation, even if it is not serious. It can lead you to having an affair.

5. Clean up your own mess. Literally. Do not leave it up to your wife to pick up the clothes that you have used for work, clean the dishes after you've had a late night dinner, etc. It can annoy the hell out of her and can bring her to a breaking point. Help her out as much as you can.

6. Remember important dates. Always.

To be able to make your marriage work, take responsibility for yourself. Learn how to appreciate your wife more. Your married life will be more rewarding if you are able to do these marriage tips. Start doing them now.
