The Woman in the Cabin Quotes

“Have dinner ready – This is a way of letting him know that you have been thinking about him and are concerned about his needs. Clear away the clutter – Your husband will feel that he has reached his haven of rest and order. Doing this for him will give you a lift also. Prepare yourself – Touch up your makeup, put a ribbon in your hair and be fresh looking. Minimise all noise – You’ve had plenty of time to do things during the day. Don’t do them now. Be happy to see your husband and greet him with a warm smile.”

Once some good food is in his belly he seems pretty much back to normal, and I realise his attitude was probably down to having not had a proper meal today.
