Most men are hungry when they get home and the prospect of a good meal is part of the warm welcome needed.

Clear away the clutter. Make one last trip through the main part of the house just before your husband arrives. Run a dustcloth over the tables.

During the cooler months of the year you should prepare and light a fire for him to unwind by. Your husband will feel he has reached a haven of rest and order, and it will give you a lift too. After all, catering to his comfort will provide you with immense personal satisfaction.

Minimize all noise. At the time of his arrival, eliminate all noise of the washer, dryer or vacuum. Encourage the children to be quiet.

Be happy to see him.

Greet him with a warm smile and show sincerity in your desire to please him.

Listen to him. You may have a dozen important things to tell him, but the moment of his arrival is not the time. Let him talk first - remember, his topics of conversation are more important than yours.

Don't greet him with complaints and problems.

Don't complain if he's late for dinner or even if he stays out all night. Count this as minor compared to what he might have gone through at work.

Make him comfortable. Have him lean back in a comfortable chair or lie him down in the bedroom. Have a cool or warm drink ready for him.

Arrange his pillow and offer to take off his shoes. Speak in a low, soothing and pleasant voice.

Don't ask him questions about his actions or question his judgment or integrity.

Remember, he is the master of the house and as such will always exercise his will with fairness and truthfulness. You have no right to question him.

A good wife always knows her place.
 
My wife took this week off of work. When I got home tonight and she was finishing a small batch of freshly cooked stuffed mushrooms as an after-work appetizer for me. I spent my time of the treadmill and took a shower afetrwards. When I got out of the shower there was a glass of tawny port waiting for me on the bathroom counter.

It's not quite the 1950's but I'm pretty darn spoiled.
 
Air, if my wife did any of that I would be suspicious of what she had done or was about to do.
As a matter a fact I probably would fear for my life.

A good wife always knows her place.


A good wife knows the value of “The Promise”, you can get any man to do any thing with just the thought of “The Promise”. Of course, we never have to follow through with the promise, just promising is usually enough to make them roll over and play dead. Ladies try this tomorrow morning… “Honey, I was thinking that tomorrow if I can spend $1200 on clothes on my shopping spree with Linda, that when I get home, I’ll be all rested and refreshed after my day at the spa, that I’ll make it “very” special for you (lick your lips - wink) … I promise!” See what response you get.
