Sure sometimes I may be moody, emotional and even unpredictable due to hormonal changes or perhaps the fact that I feel like I’m drowning in a sea of laundry, dirty dishes and dust bunnies. So what’s a husband to do? Pamper and romance me like crazy.
Here are 7 resolutions I have compiled as a public service to every woman who deserves a lil extra TLC and doesn’t have the cash to buy it (ahem, Camille).
1. Pick or buy me some flowers.
Flowers always cheer up any situation and sweet smelling flowers placed right next to my bed will help my dreams become even sweeter.Yes husband- and remember- you WANT me to have sweet dreams- right?!
2. Foot rubs.
Give me, your baby mama, a foot rub with some exotic, sweet-smelling oils. Because I am probably on my feet working a lot and exhausted and a foot rub does wonders to lift a woman’s spirit. ( And couldn’t we ALL use a lil spirit lifting?!)
3. Make dinner AND clean up afterwards.
That’s right; prepare my favorite meal from beginning to end by going shopping, cooking and cleaning up. Make it special by playing my favorite music, lighting some candles and serving me. I will love being waited on, will appreciate you preparing the foods I am craving and there’s a GOOD chance you’ll get lucky later on.
4. Let me sleep in.
Being a mother/ wife/ woman in general can be physically exhausting. Give your baby mama the morning off while you take care of chores or whatever else needs to be done so I can catch up on some much needed rest.( And that means not letting the kids first jump on my head as I lie under the covers).
5.Surprise me with a weekend getaway.
It doesn’t have to be anything fancy, although that roadside motel that looks like it may be the local JOHN hangout is definitely out of the question- but pick somewhere we can go together so we can spend some quality time in a stress-free environment with each other (and lots of alcohol).
6. Schedule a spa day for me.
Nothing will make a woman feel more pampered and rejuvenated than a day at a spa. And c’mon don’t you want my feet to look pretty?!
7. Be creative.
If you dare; sing me a love song. If you can; write me a love poem. And of course don’t forget to tell me how incredibly hot I am- in your song or love letter to me.
Okay gals.. any that I’ve missed?!
Isn't this what a boyfriend does? rofl…
Now that's a great list. My huz is good for #1 and #4, but I have yet to see any of the others!
I'd hate to see the male version of this list. I say we quit while we're ahead.
I'm thinking– perhaps I should have him write one too?!
love this list, i'll have to (accidentally) forward it to my husband!
my personal hope, that never seems to happen, is that on the rare nights i go out, that when i get home the kid mess has been cleaned-up. my hubby is good for feeding and getting the kids to bed, but not for cleaning-up their food/toy/artwork mess.
here's to hoping we all get what we want in 2011!
Has your husband signed on for this list?
well it has been laminated and framed and placed smack in the middle of our mantle…:)
Hmmm…according to this list, I'm fairly lucky. And there's just some things that will never happen. Like? Cleaning up. Forget it. Not in his DNA. Foot rubs?…well, I prefer….oh never mind!
