Bubble Bath
04/10/2015


Dear Dr. Laura, 

Last week was stressful and I found myself snapping at my husband of 23 years more than once. By Saturday night the mood was pretty tense around the house. I had a couple of glasses of wine and was trying to think of how I could repair the "bitch" damage when I remembered your idea of a couple's bubble bath. I suggested it to my husband and he immediately perked up. I ran the tub, put in the bath salts, lit the candles and then I got in. I waited... and waited... and could still hear the TV in the next room.  So I got out, dripping wet, put on my robe and walked to the living room and said 'GET A CLUE'. We both started laughing. It had been so long since I've suggested something like this that he thought I was kidding. 

Needless to say after the bath, a lot of (ahem) lotion was applied as well. This time spent together changed the whole mood of the house and we're both smiling now! Thanks for the tip, Dr. Laura...perhaps you should start making bath products to go with your jewelry!!
