Hey eyes,<BR>Does LBing count if you let 'er rip, but just keep it all inside??? Like, LoveBust, but don't open your mouth? Boy, if you could have read my mind this weekend, I was LBing ALL OVER THE PLACE only my H didn't know it! I was bad!

No, wait! Only one more post and we get that way cool burning thingy in the margin... I think this may be the one!<BR>Glad you didn't pass out on us BTDT...any advice on socks? Anyway, I really got to get a few minutes of sleep anyway... I can barely see the screen as it is.what would I do without you guys! <BR>

BTDT- It's quite the LB when my WH sees me flipping him off in his reflection in a window or mirror, or shadow on the wall. I'm real good at "yes, dear" but once he turns his back, uh oh, then I'm in trouble. I don't even remeber the question now...I gotta get some rest... I'll be up early (oh it is early)...give me a couple hours..) And we have the way cool buring thingy in the margin...whoo hoo!

Wow Zorweb,<BR>Your laundry and sock system is AWESOME! First of all, I confess, I do way too much for my family. I'm not only the queen of everyone's socks but I'm also queen of everyone's laundry. I need to take some serious notes here.<P>Definitely, my oldest could contribute more and I'm afraid for his future wife because I have taught him nothing but how to depend on mommie for everything. Maybe from OW/OC guilt, ya know? Plus he has had some very serious health concerns throughout his life to where I allow myself to cater to him when it's unnecessary... <P>The twins, different story. They do know their initials and the initials on the socks would be a GREAT idea to help them learn about helping mom with their laundry!!! WOW! I'm sooo inspired to delegate!!

ROTFL! LOL!!! HA! HA! HA! Ohhhhh, you crack me up, eyes...<P>Yes, I think it counts when we do it in any way, besides, it's going to come out eventually! Hang in there and get some sleep! NITEY-NITE! SLEEP TIGHT!

How old are your kids BTDT? (I know I am supposed to be in bed but can't help myself)

Okay, on the serious side regarding lovebusting, I was reading something in the bible one time about how wives should honor their husbands, etc., and I just couldn't figure out what that meant. I didn't know how to bring "honor" my husband????????<P>I looked up "dishonor" because I thought I could relate to that word much better, then switched it to the opposite meaning. This is what I got:<P>"To honor my husband means to never say or do anything that would cause him embarrassment or shame--even if he deserved it."<P>Pretty interesting, huh? Actually it helps me to leave matters in God's hands. Furthermore, it's very difficult to honor someone whom you neither respect nor cherish. So I think we have to get back to the qualities that we found respectable and dwell on those, if we can, especially in the tough times.<P>OH and about the sock bucket--what if you just go out and buy a bunch of new ones to throw in there! Yeah! A REASON TO GO SHOPPING! WooHoo!

Oldest is 19, twins are 6<P>You are going to be a zombie woman today!

shoot, leave it to you to go serious when I can barely see. Thanks for all the help and I guess you are at work now, but I am dropping off here. Honestly. I'll beeeee baaacccckkk..... and will respond in the morning (do you have any idea how many times it took me to type this to get it spelled right? And I'm not sure I even did... anyway, Itthinki'm outtaherenow... zzzzzzzz

Yep, your post is flaming away, girl! <P>Eyes, now that you're off for a few days, and posting on MB until the wee hours, you're going to have to invest in some earplugs and an eyemask for daytime sleeping like what I use!<P>This way, all the kids can come into your room begging you for their socks or whatever, and you will not hear one peep--only the wonderful sound of yourself breathing and snoring away! Happy snoozing!

Eyes,<P>Ok so my strategy would not work with your H. Bet I know how to get his attention. <P>Tell him that he can do his own laundry from here on out. Now make sure you do this in the sweetest most loving way you can. Then just don't ever do his laundry again. Bet it works.<P>I know, I know I'm terrible.<P>Z

HeHeHe I loved this thread. Unfortunately I wasn't up with you. I hate that load of laundry with all socks and underwear, and I have to take out half of the socks because of HOLES. (Yes, I buy at least 6 packs, so when one gets a hole, I can keep the mate around for when another one gets a hole, etc...) Give me that load of towels any time.<P>S and I made a deal: I do laundry, but not dishes.
