~~~ From the Editor ~~~
We arrived home yesterday after 17 days at sea from Venice to Ft Lauderdale (and some very wonderful stops in between) on the MSC Poesia.
I’m ready to do it again.
On almost all of their cruises, children are free (and since we have
2 that was a huge discount for us). Consider this fabulous Italian
line for your next luxury (yet surprisingly affordable) vacation.
Hope you enjoy the tips this week.

~~~ Tip of the Week ~~~
Playing Your Cards Right
by Michael Webb
The other night Athena was sitting on the floor, folding a basket
of clothes. I have never liked doing laundry or the dishes so
I try to help out in other ways like making dinner, picking up
around the house and taking care of the gardening. I don’t think
my wife likes to do the laundry either, but she does it every week
and never complains about it.
While I was watching her fluffing and folding shirts I began to
think how thankful I was that my underwear drawer was never empty.
I went into my office and picked out a card from my secret stash
and scribbled a quick note to thank her for always making sure my
drawer was full of underwear and then placed it in the drawer for
her to find when she was putting the freshly folded clothes away.
Because I had some blank greeting cards on hand, it was easy to do
something nice on the spot while I was thinking about how much I
appreciated my wife. I keep a stash on hand and sometimes leave
them various places around the house for her to find.
Athena particularly likes the Victorian cards that are reprints of
cards used about a hundred years ago. I try to buy a variety and I
concentrate on buying them blank inside so I can use them for nearly
any occasion. The night my wife was doing laundry, I happened to
have a card with a little girl washing something on a washboard.
It looked as though I planned all week to have the card there when
laundry day came up.
