When you want to get a project of new home improvement done, you can combine home improvement with a great improvement in family relationships if you take the opportunity of involving your whole family into the project. Even if it is a matter of just painting the walls with a fresh coat of paint, it provides a great event for the family and friends to come together and enjoy a roaring time. Yes, redecorating can be hugely enjoyed! Everyone can do home improvement jobs, young or old, male or female! Obviously, it is not a very good idea to involve small children into too much work.
When you approach everyone for help, you will surely get all sorts of excuses and complaints from them but you have to be really skillful and make them take a guilt trip for offering so many ridiculous excuses. Rest assured, they will come around to help in your project. A project of home is a huge task and you can make do with all the help you will get, especially from your family and friends. It will save you from paying exorbitant rates that professional home improvement people will charge.
A project of home improvement could be either a small one of a simple paint slapping or a big one like changing the heating system. Every project of home improvement is very important irrespective of whether it is small or big and should be carefully done with due consideration for members of the family living in the home. You must discuss every project with all the members of the family and their views also deserve consideration, unless you are in a state of mind where you do not care about what they think. A project of home improvement is an important topic, More so if it is a big one with a lot of investment which also involves much work.
While enlisting help for your project of home improvement, it would be better to be choosy as slack people or those who are not on the same wavelength as you are regarding the project will mostly prove to be an impediment to the job on hand. They will either slow down the job or it will get messed up, preventing you from achieving what you set out to do. It is also important that you keep yourselves free for a few days or for however long it takes to finish the job, as leaving the job unfinished will defeat the purpose of the home improvement project. Contractors should never be asked to come if you are unable to pay them. A home improvement project is undertaken to enliven your home life and it should never bog you down with worries or bills. It should prove to be a joy from start to finish!

Marriage is a home improvement project!?
I’ve just started Yahoo Answers yesterday. I had read a lot of people having marriage issues. I have a good marriage, it’s something that me and my spouse works at. Just like a house, as it needs fixing and improving as the years roll past, a marriage does also!
What kinds of things do people do to make their marriage work, making marriage and family life fun?
lets everyone know that HIS old house isn’t perfect.

Bravo. Best anaology regarding a marriage I’ve ever seen. I do the same as you and have for the past 22 years. Communication and comprimise. It’s the only way to make it work. granted there are some things one or the other of you may have to take a firm stand on but for the most part some type of concession can be reached in almost all cases. no single person is in control. its not a 50/50 relationship. Marriage is a 100/100 one.

48 yrs old and married for 30 of them, to the same man…. we have had so many problems over the first 12 or so, i was not sure we would make it….. I learned almost to late that marriage does take work….. but we both figured it out…. still working on it though, of course it is a lifetime job….. but gets easier with time and trust and love and mostly God…… we talk, and have fun… we take turns at picking what to do with spare time…. he hunts, but makes sure than off time is for me and my choices….. as for kids, they are grown and now we have grands coming out of the wood work…… movies, sand boxes, and wrestling, 5 boys, 1 girl, and shopping for purty dresses….. we are a full and loving family…… young ppl need to know that marriage is compromise and promises kept……. God bless
