Part of taking care of our husbands, or anyone else, for that matter (mommies listen up here) is taking care of ourselves. We’ve all heard that when there is an emergency on an airplane we must first put on our own oxygen mask before doing so for our loved ones. (How can we take care of anyone when we are passed out on the airplane floor with only a bag of peanuts to cushion our fall?)
It’s impossible to make other people the top priority on your list when you don’t even show up on the page.
So your add-on project today is one that is all about YOU. Today, set aside time (even if it’s only two minutes) to go into your bathroom, find one of those bottles of lotion you received as a thank-you gift, and lay it on thick. Do your arms, your elbows, your heels; everywhere that’ll feel good and just a little bit luxurious.
While this add on is all about you, there will be double return on your time investment. You husband will get a softer, smoother, and more relaxed wife.

Hello again, gals…
Here’s the final exchange between the three Project Managers; this from a wife who’s really given thought to her husband’s personal favorites:

We’re still listening in on our three Project Managers. Here’s the response from one of the Managers, who also happens to be a nursing mom:
“Hi,
Like you, S, I FULLY fell off the bandwagon last week as our routine was off due to Thanksgiving. So…I will look at week 3 and make some plans.
I LOVE that you two went on a date! J and I have a date this Friday–dinner out and a Sharks hockey game–the funny part will be me pumping in the car between. HAHAHA! But it will be good to get out and not have anyone interrupt our conversation–like, say, a 4 year old.
I’m wondering if either of your husbands have wondered what the heck is going on? Any reactions at all in that way? J has not really–which, either means I am not doing enough to get his attention OR I am a pretty nice wife most of the time? Not sure which quite yet. “

Hi, ladies –
According to the feedback I’ve received on the project, many of you, if not the majority, love seeing what other women are doing to make it work for them.
I have the privilege of being in the email loop of three great and funny girls who are holding each other accountable. Here’s a rundown from S about what she had in store for her guy this week and some very cool changes she is experiencing:
“Last week I arranged for a babysitter and B and I went out on a real date!!! (more…)
