Can men and women just be “friends”?

November 18, 2014 by Melissa Chapman 5 Comments

Unlike Mary J. Blige I am FINE with my husband having women friends, to be perfectly honest I'd settle for him having ANY FRIENDS! But in all seriousness I have this conversation with my husband at least once a month. And it always goes something like this: Me: "Honey I know I can be friends with a man." My husband: "No you can't, ultimately every man that is friends with a woman is only doing … [Read more...]

3 reasons why being a trophy wife aint half bad

January 29, 2014 by Melissa Chapman 7 Comments

Okay- let me preface this post with this disclaimer- perhaps I THOUGHT I was in the running to be a trophy wife when I initially met my husband- who is 15 years my senior. WHY? Well of course the age gap-- I mean no matter how old he got- I'd still be younger- hence- the trophy. Of course I also thought I'd be ensconced in a lifestyle similar to that of a Bravo Housewife   unfortunately (or … [Read more...]

I'm sitting behind this couple on the plane-they're probably in their early thirties; she's got a rather large baby bump and is wrestling with a very fidgety, unhappy toddler around two years old.

This toddler is quite literally sitting … [Read more...]

Being a wife requires you to swallow…ALOT (get your mind out of the gutter!)

December 29, 2011 by Melissa Chapman 1 Comment

My husband rarely smiles. It takes an awful lot to get him to pucker those lips and bare his teeth. Of course this is just one of many personality traits I was very well aware of going into this union. I am completely opposite, if I feel good, my grin will be from ear to ear. I am not bashing my husband- in fact I feel fortunate that he's not Charlie Sheening it; shacking up with "two goddesses," … [Read more...]

Your kid will be happy with a glass of chocolate milk

January 30, 2011 by Melissa Chapman 7 Comments

I really have tried hard not to succumb to the parenting pressures evidenced all around me-- this need in our culture to shower our kids with stuff and experiences. My husband ever the grumpy pessimist has on one too many occasions uttered the statements, "Kids will be happy with whatever you give them- even if it's just a cardboard box." Of course my husband, who admits he's from a generation … [Read more...]
