Movie Night: The Baxter

If you like romantic comedies, quirky (or as Brian would say, bizarre) characters, and if you once bought a "vote for pedro" t-shirt, you should check out the movie The Baxter. It has become a quirky favorite!

Happy Husbands do Housework

Now here is an interesting find (which Brian agrees with)- Men Who Do Housework Have Happier Marriages

Marital researcher John Gottman studied men who did housework and found them to not only be happier in their marriages, but also have lower heart rates and better health. In addition, these men were less stressed and less likely to be sick in the four years following the initial research meeting.

My thinking: If a husband is pitching in with the housework, he's most likely helping out in other areas of the marriage. This makes the wife happier because she feels part of a true partnership. And we all know that if Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy!
