King Solomon

I was reading in Proverbs today and I found:

"It is better to live in a corner of the roof, Than in a house shared with a contentious woman."

Do you wonder if King Solomon was hen-pecked?

Gene Brewer Is A Bully

I was talking to some friends about a mutual friend Gene Brewer:
Yeah, Gene would be sitting around with his feet up since he never did an honest days' work anyway and he would think.... "I need someone to pick on." Instantly "easy pickin's" would come to mind and he would come over to the 70048 building and steal my lunch money. And if that weren't bad enough,  he would pick me up and stick my head in the lady's room toilet and flush it. While I would be laying on the tile flooring sobbing my eyes out Gene would walk away counting the money he had taken from me.

Be on notice Mr. Gene Brewer.... I WANT MY LUNCH MONEY BACK.

Kindness Is The Order Of The Day

I'm in one of my "Blue" periods. VERY LONG story and I'm tired of even thinking about it. Kari is also having a tough time of it with the Fibro and a pulled muscle in her back.

She called me to tell me that she renewed her tanning subscription and my first reaction was to chew her out for wasting money. But I caught myself as I have managed to do for almost 8 years. My friend said something in passing the other day and it had reminded me of some very bad feelings I had had when I was married to Connie. A lot of very bad and ugly things were said between us. BUT...Once they were said they could never be taken back.

I have made an extra effort to NOT say mean things to Kari. She is my sunshine. I cannot even begin to imagine what my life would be like without her. Even on the very worst day with Kari it is better then the best day with Connie during the last 15 years of our marriage.

Don't get me wrong...when Connie and I were young it seemed like everything wrong could be solved with sex. But after we grew older, other things became more important... Like not being kind to each other...and Connie had a hard time being kind to me and I to her...I think we said too many bad things through the years to let kindness reign supreme.

So yesterday when Kari annoyed me, I swallowed my annoyance and I let it slide. By the time I got home the annoyance had passed and our mutual kindness and love for each other was the order of the day.

Parent Sex

According to my sons Frank, Tim & Cameron... I have had sex exactly 3 times in my life... And it was in a dark room, lights off, blinds drawn, missionary position, we both had our eyes closed and our clothes on.... Frank says it is just way to creepy to think that his parents did THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!
