    Is that the same book that tells you to be wearing your lipstick and sit up straight in your chair? There is one that does, and I would love to get my hands on it.

    I can just picture the look on my hubby's face if he ever saw me do all the housework then run out and buy a dress and some makeup and get all dolled up. We've been married 22 years and he's seen me in a dress twice.

    I'll have to check my manuals and see if I can find the one that has that in it. DH would get a kick out of it. Heck, he'd probably frame it.

    If I did all that girly stuff first, I wouldn't stay home and sew. I would be at JoAnn's looking for sale material.

    I read it to John and he said if I did all that, he'd have to go and check out my sewing room.
