Buying Gifts for men.

In order to fully appreciate this post, and to not be constantly asking yourself , “what the heck is he talking about?” you ought to read this link first. Better yet, read them at the same time.

Surprisingly, many of these are absolutely true, and not just stereotypes. Number 1 is true. I wouldn’t mind owning more cordless drills. Heck, I wouldn’t mind having a cordless drill period *looks at wife*. Of the second rule, racheting and socketing are wonderful things. However, all guys know why. Wink wink. And for number three, I would accept nearly any for the car. I own a bobble head chihuahua. I think that one is fairly obviously true.

What good is a bathrobe? Unless it’s a bathrobe that can do math and play video games, psht. Screw that. And I actually don’t care too mcuh about remote controls. I’m too busy wishing my wife would hand the thing over. I’d also personally be offending if I was bought aftershave or deodorant for a gift. Which is not at all quite exactly explicitly stated or adequately implied.

However number 7 is a universal truth of life When we got my labeller, I had to resist the urge to label EVERYTHING. The cat is glad.

Number 8 is wrong in the specific case where assembly is the point of the gift. See this link.

I’m not huge on “guy stores.” Auto parts could be cared for less by me.

Danger is my middle name baby!

Cowboys!? Cowboys!? No self-respecting Steelers fan would dare want tickets to a cowboys game unless it was to watch them be bludgeoned by dem Stillers. Shame shame. (With the exception of slast week, when we needed them to beat Kansas City).

Number 12 brings on a maniacal head nod. Try to imagine that.

Stepstools are furniture waste.

Rope? Cable ties.

Life-Giving Love : Embracing God’s Beautiful Design for Marriage: Books

I just finished Life-Giving Love : Embracing God’s Beautiful Design for Marriage by Kimberly Hahn. There were parts that don’t yet apply to our marriage, but overall I was glad to read such an encouraging book.
Matt says he’ll read it, too, but it’s going to have to wait in line. Stay tuned.

Scripture Verse of the Day

You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand. James 5:8

Oh, how I needed to see this today… It’s going to be a long day & I’m going to need a LOT of patience!

Happy Thoughts

I had a rough day, but rather than dwell on how upset I am, here is a list of GOOD things that happened today:
*I realized I’ll get paid THREE times in December instead of two.
*Matt made a promise to me that I know he’ll keep
*I had cottage cheese with dinner
*My cat voluntarily sat in my lap for over an hour
*I found stuff to make ornaments for my Jesse Tree

I hope George listens to Hillary. I can’t believe I just said that.
