When I first got married

I actually went into a depression because I had "Should" all over myself.

I should be June Cleaver
I should have a perfectly clean house
I should be a perfect lil 'Stepford wife'.

Bout drove both me AND Charles nuts.

He and I finally sat down and had a talk (actually he sat me down and talked and I sat there in a semi-comatose glaze) while he explained that June Cleaver was driving him nuts and all he wanted was the woman he fell in love with. I was working off of some kind of 50's model that just doesn't work for us.

MUCH more relaxed and happy 11 years later. But those first couple of years were a real challenge.
