IconI had only just begun your book The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands when I ran into a communication problem with my husband and wanted to be sad or angry, but stopped myself to reflect. I had just bought a new dress'you know the style where the waistline is just under the chest area and it can create sort of a "preggy" look.  More >>

Icon...I admit that lately, though, I have been having a bit of an identity crisis. Now that all three of my children are in school full time, the thought of getting a part time job during the day has crossed my mind. I am happy to say that today, I made my decision! More >>

IconI have to say you have been a blessing to my life and especially with my marriage. I would describe my marriage in two phases: Pre-Book and Post Book. The book in question is your "The Proper Care And Feeding Of Husbands." When my wife advised this was the only thing she wanted for Christmas, I got it for her that day (December 7) early. She told me later that when she started reading it she thought, "It can't be this easy!" Oh, but it was! More >>

IconThis morning as I was returning from walking my dog at the dog park, I noticed a beautiful black Labrador in the parking lot of the Clubhouse in my community. I stopped to see if there was anybody with the dog. Nobody was around. I pulled in, got out of the car, and the dog ran to me and practically jumped into my arms. I let my own dog out of the car, and the two played. We waited a while in the hopes somebody would come looking for a dog. No one came. I invited the dog into my car, she jumped in, happy as could be. More >>

IconI was listening to your show when a caller was expressing concern about flirtatious and suggestive texts her husband was sharing with his female cousin. You asked her how long has she been aware her marriage was in trouble and she went off on a tangent but you quickly brought her back on track to where she answered the question, "today". You knew that wasn't the correct answer and she eventually 'fessed up to not giving him the attention he was needing. So, therefore he was seeking his affirmation elsewhere. More >>
