Truth. Women who are pursuing a traditional lifestyle need to know that interior decorating is not a trad value. Spending on those new curtains and new furniture isn't money spent wisely. Either make new curtains yourself or find a less expensive route. Yes, try to make as beautiful home as possible but do so without spending much. Our homes do not need to look like showrooms. Clean, tidy, and comfortable is good enough.

.#1 deathbed regret with fathers is spending too much time working and not enough time with their family. Help them from going down that rabbit hole and work as little as needed.

YES! I'm a woman and have a natural inclination to want to shop. What works for me is if I see something I really want, I put it back on the shelf and wait a day. If I still want it the next day I can go back and get it. Wanna know something, I've maybe gone back once or twice to purchase something. This is a very good practice that works for me and I hope other wives can find it useful.

This was timely for me, I got a scolding a few months back for getting a little too caught up on shopping culture. I took it to heart. It’s hard to resist when you have a new house but it’s the right thing to do.
