*Warning: Super honest post ahead.
After almost 14 years of marriage I feel like I still wield some power. C’mon, I can’t be the only girl out there who is trading IT away.
“Ug. I think I have a headache.” Is commonly heard uttered from my lips. Sometimes it is legit!
Back rub begins. Le Sigh.
“Honey really, “ I lament “I’m sorry I’m just SO tired.”
Then Hubby pulls out the big guns. He offers to let me sleep in the next morning, wash my car, and go grocery shopping. As a last ditch effort he offers to take the kids WITH HIM on his grocery run.
Suddenly I am all kinds of in the mood.
Did I just prostitute myself out for a clean car, a quiet uninterrupted nap and some snacks?
Sheesh. Next time I am holding out for jewellery.

This was very funny and very true. Sometimes we have to negotiate the mood. Sometimes its dinner and a movie but after you’ve been in a relationship for a while its sleeping in and a trip to the bathtub ALONE…..lol Made my day!
Nolie says
LMAO! Any woman who denies prostituting herself out for those quiet moments of peace and quiet is lying.

Tractor Mom says
That’s not hooking, that’s just being a wife and actually getting Hubby to DO something (that needs to be done) around the house!! You’re doing good!!
