Serious ??? WOW I take breaks in the domestic stuff......I have to say I LOVE living with FH couldn't think of anywhere else I would want to be. But as for the Domestic Bliss... I hate cleaning always did always will but as for cooking dinner every night and doing all that it is my favorite thing to do, we have dinner, we watch TV then go to bed it's nice... BUT now it's like we are newlyweds with it just being us and our zoo here now....

I know what you mean. When DH and I first moved in, I loved it. Now, 3 and a half years later, it is a bit much. I HATE folding laundry and get sick of making dinner.

I love cooking and cleaning! We dont live together yet but i love doing it around my house. With all my animals it kind of needs to be done. I clean out cages, take out garbage, dust and vacuum almost everyday. Its annoying at my house with my family since they add to the mess so i am soo looking forward to it just being the two of us. Also FH gets out of work 3 hrs after i do so i will have lots of alone time to get all my chores done without having him in my way haha.. I just pray we find a place with a washer and dryer... i really cannot live with out those.

same here - it doesnt help that we have the smallest kitchen ever! i think that once we have a house with a big kitchen ill enjoy cooking again - right now its hard...in our old apartment i always was cooking for us but we had a full sized kitchen there - in this apartment the kitchen is really tiny so its hard to prepare meals....i think that you love it because its new and exciting - i remember when we first moved in together i think its more exciting in the beginning because its a new experience together....its a good sign that you love it though! some people move in together and hate it! now that could be trouble! but i do love living with FH still (after 3 years) - i wouldnt want to be anywhere else but with him

i agree the kitchen plays a huge role in my house my kitchen is average (not enough counter space) its a PITA trying to prepare meals I can not wait to move and get the kitchen of my dreams I dont think a kitchen or a closet for that matter could ever be 'too big'

well whats funny is that sometimes its actually cheaper to order....

for instance its cheaper for us to order a pizza for 11 dollars then to buy steaks and make a salad....but if im making sauce and spaghetti that is cheaper than ordering pizza for instance the other day we were going to make tacos - it would have cost us more money to buy everything so we said screw it - lets just go to taco bell - and it was less money so even buying groceries (especially meat) adds up!

It is very fun playing house! I have lived with my FH for almost 6months. I couldn't imagine it any other way!

seriously - dave and i have lived together for 5.5 years and we still LOVE it....

i still get the butterflies in my stomach when i hear his car pull into the driveway...etc..

our first year together was rough - but let me tell you - this first year of marriage has been HEAVEN!!!



I dont know who gets more excited when I hear DH's car alarm beep, me or the dog!!!

I absolutely love love love all the housewife stuff and its been over five months - and I have a feeling I will love it forever!!!



its also kind of easy to keep such a small space clean!!!



AWWW LoL i hope i still feel that way too!! I get so excited when DH comes home too!!!! We have an apartment so its good practice on cleaning because its not the size of a house but its still work!!! But i always loved cooking and cleaning....in fact when i was younger i use to walk around with the windex bottle and tell people i wanted to be a cleaning lady when i grew up!!! Now that idea i got over FAST LOL

Don't worry get some newlywed cookbooks and your good to go!!!! and when you make something resue it the next day for a differnt meal. I made chicken parm the other night but saved some cutlets beforehand and made a grilled chicken salad last night........just try to think of as many ways as you can to use what you buying and youll be surprised how much money you save!!
