What women can learn from men

Reading my Family Circle magazine about disputes over housework, etc. and the battle of the sexes.

There was this little gem in a box:

What women can learn from men
*Let it slide. The messy den really can wait a day or two.
*A house is just a house. You're not a failure if it it's not perfect.
*Take one thing at a time. Don't overwhelm yourself with the big picture.
*Put fun first. Would you feel happier washing out the produce drawer or curling up with a novel?

I'm working on this philosophy and so far, I think it is helping. Of course, my couch is covered with clean laundry to put away and the dishes are piled up in the sink. But, hey, I'm a happy camper.
