Honey Don't List

I know there are a lot of wives who have Honey Do Lists I had never heard of this phenomenon until I worked with a bunch of men They would go on how they got some things off the honey do list done over the weekend. I remember when I heard what it was, that it seemed silly These are grown men why do they have to have their wives tell them what to do I have never been one to nag or tell a grown man to fix things he knows are broken. They all assured me that it helps, so I thought I would give it a go. I put three things on a list Simple things Hubby was off work for a week for a week so three seemed a good start. Convo below Me: Did you do anything on that list Him What list Me The honey do list Him what Me Remember I wrote down three things you could do on your week off Him Oh yah I buried that wire in yard Me What wire Him That one you said Goober dug up Me That wasn’t even on the list. Me You used your foot Me You were holding a beer at the same time Him Yah Him...

Nail Biting Experience

Image
I am trying to be less high maintenance and Diva like to save money I thought I would try and do my own nails. I have gotten my nails done for years. It doesnt look that hard. Put some goop on, buff the heck out if it, paint it, easy peasy Plus instead of wasting time at salon I could do it at my leisure at home. I know! I am so smart and thrifty. Yay me! So I bought this. Thats a lovely start. I still missed the airbrush designs on tips though. So i bought these And these But these are boring after a while. Plus when you put the goob on over top they fade you can barely see the design after all that buffing. So I bought this. Which of course is worthless without these But ... I found something out. Doing nails is HARD! If I let my ADD self do them I am constantly at them Buffing,redoing, starting over, reapplying,painting, ruining brushes, losing nails in embarrassing places and at inconvenient times, making my cuticles bloody, and even forcing hubby t...

It's an F'd Up Life

We watch It’s a Wonderful Life every Christmas season. Hubby watches because he thinks it sentimental and sweet. I watch it because it is so messed up and twisted and can’t believe I am only one who seems to realize it. I am going to assume you have seen the film and began my rant. Yes, life would suck if George hadn’t been born but what if George had made a few different decisions His brother would be alive because he would be there to save him still it happened when they were young. The pharmacist wouldn’t have killed off some poor family in his drunken haze because George was still at home he hasn’t gone any where yet, no worries. So let move on to George first dumb arse attack He stays to work the family business to send his brother to college instead. Ok that’s cool. He could have turned it around if he had any sense and made enough money so they wouldn’t have to worry about Evil Rich Mr. Potter. He could have fired his dumb stupid Uncle Billie or put him on phones...

I got to look at each decoration and remember when it was acquired. I even got a little weepy when I put the green macoroni ornoment made by the girl in daycare Sniff Merry Christmas everyone! PS Dont get me wrong, still miss the money and my New Years Resolution is to work more LOL But it is a nice tree
