Do you allocate how much time on this particular job?. I love cooking and would spend all day at it but clothes need to be washed which I hate doing.  Both jobs are necessary but I love one and no the other  e I allocate time for both.
Do you spend too much time on the garden project to the detriment of others? Do you love gardening and that might be why you are accused of goofing off and other jobs don't get done like clearing out the rubbish.
Both of you work out job priorities together because what is not important to you might be important to her and visa versa.

It's so tragic how it is so taboo that the idea of the wife obeying her husband is so disdained now. I mean Our Lady perfectly obeyed her most chaste spouse St. Joseph. I mean could not at least some married women think seriously at least about the possibility in theory of obeying their husbands?

Your wife spends a lot of time watching TV? Do you know what the TV is telling her? Seriously, this is the first problem. You have to get rid of the TV. Have a bonfire.

I have known a number of good women who listen to and obey their husbands like little saints!

I wish that I could be like that one day...

It certainly is a work in progress though.

It takes a great deal of humility, patience, self-denial, and prayer for this end to become a good wife.  

I think that since our society is so against women being docile, we tend to forget ourselves.  I can not speak for everyone, but at least for me, I did not even realize I were standing up to those in authority above me, until someone told me so...  :facepalm:

God knows we are all trying though, and so the fight goes on!   :pray:
