Continually learning the art of marriage


So not to complain or anything but now that I have 2 bathrooms life with a woman has gotten even more difficult. Usually its "turn on the fan" or "close the door" but now its "go use the other bathroom". Naturally as a man I cannot always explain my actions, especially certain decisions I make like which bathroom I choose to grace with my presence. Once the decision is made I act and in the latest case I followed all rules (door, fan) and settled in when all the sudden all hell breaks loose and I am being yelled at. My first reaction is to yell back but that only makes things worse. I then choose to finish up. Upon final inspection making sure I left the vessel the way I found it and wash my hands I find that I was still in the wrong, Imagine that!!! Seems claim has been laid on that one and I missed the memo! Well if there is anything to be learned by this all is that just when you think that you have it all figured out remember SHE can change the rules at any given moment and you are just supposed to know all new changes!


Fire, why is it so cool to watch? No I dont get off on it or anything like that but today I finished building a pile of brush that I have cleared and now im looking forward to burning it. Since I live outside of town we can burn our yard waste and I cannot wait to get rid of it. I am more afraid of it getting out of control or the winds not cooperating so instead of burning it here Rhonda is going to ask her boss if we can use his truck and take to his field where he burns and do it there. Much safer as is more open of an area. Will let you know how that goes and I will take pics when we burn. Still much yard work to do. I have to build a sifter and sift out the larger rocks (fist size or so) then rototill-press it out, repeat process and then even out the yard. Yeah I know it sounds fun and all so I will take pics here as well so you can share in my pain. Speaking of pain its time to stop typing...see ya!

I got a round tuit!



And some said it would never happen...well here it is my own venue to share away. I should then share with you the fact that I dont play well with other. When I was a small boy I was not into sharing my toys. I remember throwing toys at the kids who tried to play with my toys. Effective but it has its downside too. Anyway here are a couple of pics of the house before/after . Replaced the cheap shelving in master closet and laundry room with more effective closet system and utility cabinet. Yard is work in progress and buying plans for the shed/shop soon.
