Being fat is a disability?

I just read that there is a bill before congress that would give disability benefits to obese people. Evidently the severly obese cannot work because they are bed ridden. Other obese people are in pain from standing all day and say they cannot work. The weight of their own body is just too much for [...]

If you take care of your home you are not a slave!

I just read a review of my book where a woman said “Well if you want to be a slave read Happy Housewives.” I would really like to clock this woman right in the nose. And it has nothing to do with her not liking my book. If you don’t like it [...]

The Oil spill is not a natural disaster!

I keep hearing on tv and in real life “this is the worst natural disaster in America’s history.” This is not a Natural Disaster! This is a man made horror story. Created by greedy men who did not want to insure the safety of our gulf. The bottom line is the bucks. In Norway where [...]

Facebook & Twitter destroying us all…

A lady wrote to me to tell me about her daughter’s Facebook addiction and how it has ruined her life. This girl is 15 and evidently now in high school the entire social agenda revolves around FB and texting. Girls who are ‘in’ have pages, pictures, lots of friends, and checks in [...]

What does it take to be healthy?!

I eat healthy, I am thin, I exercise, and really if I am not in perfect health I don’t know who the hell is. I take a multi-vitamin, C, A, B,
D3, selenium, grape seed, kefir, wheat grass juice, and flax seed oil. I eat no processed foods and my big vice is coffee and a [...]

Girlfriends

Can women be true friends?
With all the discussion in the HHC forums over the past five years, more than marriage, more than children, the subject of ‘girlfriends’ comes up over and over. Making friends is hard for housewives and keeping them is even harder. Why? Why are women so hard on each other? Just look [...]

Light a fire in your marriage

So many women say they just aren’t in the mood. They are exhausted from cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the children. That is true. But the bigger truth is that your husband and you simply aren’t connecting. How many times a day do you touch each other? Does he kiss you [...]

Don’t turn your back

How do you turn off of your children? When does a parent say, ‘they are on their own?’ Now I am not judging any parent because I can only imagine the pain it takes to turn your back on your child, but I have to ask who then becomes responsible? Is it me? Is it [...]

Love and Money

Did you know money is the number one issue couples argue about? Not sex. Not the in-laws. But the all mighty dollar. It’s very sad. Over the past eight months I have heard one story after another. I get emails and letters from women all over the country telling me this recession has destroyed their [...]

Valentines Day on a budget..

You don’t have to go out and spend $60 bucks on flowers. Love is free.
All your mate wants is your attention and your adoration. In the busy lives we lead we often forget the little gestures that show how much we care. And especially in marriage it is so important to keep intimacy and closeness [...]
