It appears the two of you have radically different values and you don't respect her values. It's best to just move on and find someone who thinks like you.

This brought back memories of my frugal father. For some reason TP prices went up in late 1973 or early 1974 and he decided it was too expensive. He had us cut up squares of newspaper to use instead. My younger sister and brother threw it in the toilet by habit and clogged the toilet multiple times on the first day, which Mom had to deal with since Dad was working. When he got home, she told him in no uncertain terms that we were going back to TP no matter what it cost.

I've been a blonde, brunette and redhead and I got the most attention as a blonde. As a brunette, I'm nearly invisible.

What time of the year are you visiting?
<br><br>My favorites and places I'd visit again: Grand Canyon, Death Valley (in the winter), San Francisco/Redwood country, Oregon Coast, Seattle, Olympic Peninsula in northwest Washington, Las Vegas, Cape Cod Massachusetts, Bar Harbor Maine, Savannah Georgia, Newport Rhode Island, Los Angeles, Lake Tahoe, Yosemite, Monterey/Carmel California (thought Big Sur was overrated)
<br><br>I haven't been to the Tetons or Yosemite national park, Miami, Florida keys, NYC but they're on my list.
And I agree with elsewhere - you can skip Port Arthur Texas-yuck. -

I get more male attention as a blonde, but maybe those males aren't gentlemen. ;-)

The Fortune Cookie Thread. Share yours! (Unabashed Friday Fluff) :- )
by Open mind ini'm a fortune cookie atheist.
i enjoy reading them, but do not feel they have any kind of "power" or are somehow "guided" to reach their final recipient.
i do acknowledge the possibility that if they happen to contain good advice, then perhaps that may have a positive effect.

Hi BigD,
I was a single working Mom too. I agree with the others in getting your kids to do chores. AS teenagers they are capable of cleaning and doing laundry. I also relaxed my housekeeping standards a bit, because it was better for us to spend our spare 30 minutes having fun rather than scrubbing toilets. When my daughter got really busy with her senior year in school, I did get maid service to come biweekly - but the off weeks my daughter had to clean. She earned an allowance for doing that.
I also limited my daughter to one after school activity so I wasn't constantly chauffering her around.
We ate dinner out fairly often, or I would get takeout, so I wouldn't have to cook every night. There are also personal chefs who can be hired to cook meals for you for a week at a time, more cheaply than taking 4 people out for dinner every night. Your kids are old enough that they could make simple things like pasta. It also won't kill kids to occasionally eat sandwiches at night, with some soup/salad, instead of having a full blown meal.
I tried to keep our home organized and streamline our activities as much as possible. K.I.S.S was my mantra - keep it simple, silly.
I hired a lawn service to come biweekly (I didn't water the grass much so biweekly was sufficient).
Saturday morning was my time and I would go out to eat breakfast alone, read the newspaper and then do a little shopping or browse the bookstore.
With all that said, it was still hard. If I had it to do over again, I would live closer to work to minimize my commute, I would have kept my yard simpler to minimize yard work even more and I would have started maid service sooner.
As far as the schoolwork goes, can you get the older ones to help the younger ones? -

Woman who are oldest children or oldest daughters tend to be bossier. Since I was the oldest, I'm a bit bossy about certain things, but I don't see myself in that article that Gopher posted.
Also, if people are too laid back and/or indecisive, some women feel compelled to take control to move things along.
