• When trying to find the perfect dress go with the first one you think looks good.  After trying on about 20 dresses, I bought the one I tried on first.  I could have cut that shopping trip down to only ten minutes instead of two hours!
• When it’s over ninety degrees outside, drive the Explorer that’s air conditioner works all the time.  Or, better yet, get the other one fixed…. ahem…. Jason…. did you get that?
• When your kids don’t like a certain brand of cereal they usually dump it in the sink.  That cereal will clog the drain beyond Draino.  Your husband will have to do a ton of work.  Then he will get frustrated and call his dad who will come over and blow some air in it or something and the sink will be fixed.  Thanks Mr. Ricky!  Your are GREAT!
• When you decide not to follow your husband’s advice you will be scolded.  Yes, even at 31 your husband can still make you feel exactly like a three year old caught with their hand in the cookie jar.
• When you decide to be Miss Mary Homemaker and do a ton of stuff at once the scolding will begin.
• When you bake pork chops, steam squash and potatoes, heat oil for fried okra,  wash/dry clothes, and run the dishwasher do not get the bright idea to melt chocolate in the microwave for chocolate covered strawberries.
• When you do all the above, you will flip the breaker for the kitchen.  Then your husband will be mad because he has told you many times not to run everything at once.  Then he will try to fix it.  He will run into many problems.  He will have to rewire half the kitchen at 8:00 p.m.  That is when the real scolding begins.

I hope you will learn from my mistakes.
