So, that didn't work very long...

So, the "treating hubby better than he treats himself" experiment is over : ( I am pretty proud of myself, I lasted 4 full days. Turns out, they are going to do whatever they want anyway, and that you have to keep some balance. So, that doesn't work. It's okay though, we live and we learn :)

"You Treat Me Better Than I Treat Myself"

So, as you know I decided to try to treat my husband better than he would treat himself. I tried this yesterday, and it made for a great day. I was overly nice a plesant all day, I did not argue with him about anything (that is the hard part), and I let him do whatever he wanted. He watched what he wanted on TV while I cleaned and washed dishes, and then he played with his itunes while he watched TV and I didn't way a word. I'm pretty sure he was testing me since I had been so nice and agreeable all day. This is one of my biggest pet peeves. I cannot stand to have the music and the TV on at the same time. I know that is silly - but it drives me crazy. So, day one of the experiment worked...now we shall see how long I can keep it up...

Here come the newlyweds

Jeff and I love this show. We even went to "try out" at the casting last year in Dallas. Turns out, since we didn't know each other's signs, we were not cut out for the show. I am pretty sure that we would be formidable opponents!

Anyway, last night one of the husbands said something to his wife that I woke up thinking about this morning. He said, "You treat me better than I treat myself". Wow. That's huge. I want my husband to think that of me too - but what a huge undertaking! I think that people, especially men, are selfish creatures by nature. So, to treat my husband better than he treats himself will be quite a challenge. I'm not sure how to go about it...
