traditional or what?

My mom did the same thing for my dad every day of his working life until he retired. She considered it part of her "job" as wife and mother. I personally think they enjoyed the quiet time having breakfast together every morning without us kids around. Part of that morning routine was mom making his lunch. They've been married almost 46 years so they must have done something right.

If it feels right to you, don't let other people tell you you shouldn't be doing it.

That would be great. No, it doesn't happen at our house. I spend the lonely morning all by myself, wanting to wake the FantasyGoddess, but not doing so. I go to work lonely and unloved and the feeling stays with me until she calls me...



FG-Is this working at all?

Bratcat, I'm afraid you are one of a dying breed! I haven't made homemade cookies in ages. The best I can do is bake refrigerator cookies. LOL. And I come from a very traditional family! I admire you, I wish I were more like my mother, grandmother and sister. I really admire you, I don't know how you do it and maintain a 4.0. I also maintain a 4.0, but it's exhausting and time-consuming, and it's hard to make time for all the fun family stuff we used to do. Maybe you could give me some tips.

Preheat the oven to 350.



That's as far as I get...

Don't let them tease you darling. I get up and make his breakfast and lunch. hang out while he wakes up and gets dressed. You know. All the lovey dovey things. I never meant too, just happened. Now if I am lazy and stay in bed till he is gone, I feel bad. Even though he would understand, and is quite able to do it all himself. I like taking care of him. Showing him I love him. He appreciates it too, and thanks me and cuddles me and tells me how wonderful i am. If he didn't? Or he began epecting me to and getting upset if I didn't do it?
Hmmm. I would first stop doing it and then remind him where the door is.

The hubby makes my breakfast and other dinners as well , but together we make cookies and sweets . WE have found out we like to cook together (as long as i'm not grumpy) But it works none the less
