My grandmother was a well known bitch. They named the street she lived on after her. Jessie's Way. I kid you not. Anyway, my grandfather was a little hard of hearing so he got a hearing aid. Everytime she started in, he's reach up and turn off his aid. Then he just smiled and nodded with an occasional "aye yup". I don't nag DH. I learned years ago, the more I asked for something the less likely I was to get it. Stubborn is an understatement. Now, he just anticipates my needs. LOL! Had to chime in..... Didn't used to be intolerant Tela. And didn't used to nag. Metaphase kinda changed all that, probably mid life me. Love the wife switch lol. I get things thrown at me when installing head phones. Universal language. It is a hobby to irritate the old gal. I just don't heal as well these days. when things start hitting me. Anticipation is an interesting term. Yes, I do anticipate her. Way in advance. She's over there talking to herself as I type. Constantly. Incessantly. Repeatedly. |

I hope things get a little easier between you two. She seems to have a good man. I'm sure she appreciates that even if she can't always act on it. We always hurt the ones we love. I wonder if she has private issues eating at her. Whenever you guys start talking about honey do lists, I get jealous. The flip side of my coin and the thing that bothers me, is that I can't make a honey do list. I used to do everything myself. I didn't mind, at all. I can do minor car repairs, swing a hammer, do home repairs, garden, etc. But, I'm not as physically capable as I used to be. Now, I just gotta hope DH sees what needs to be done as much as I do.  He's not a lazy man in the least, just not terribly observant. |

Why you planting oats? What do you do with them? Gonna get a horse? The guy that helps me w/fire pits wanted to plant it for attracting deer. He bought oat deer mix 50 pounds, $45. Like coloradocliff said, as a soil builder too. Collards, mustards, beets, turnips and kale mixed in for fresh greens also. The oats will tell me about all I need to know about the condition of the soil also. Been 10 years since planting any field crops, so I needed the practice. The field needs sub soiling. Neighbor has a 100HP tractor w/36 inch deep spring tooth plow. It won't take him 10 minutes to break up the clay hard pan 36 inches down. field was packed down hard from 25 years of equipment traffic. Tell your man that he needs to plant a rosebush or flowers if he wants to attract a deer.

Brings a new set of issues to the table. Life a living organism always changing. Glad to hear you are not afraid to break a nail, mine same way. I'm better off than some of my buddies I suppose. |

Yes, Cliff, I'm sorry about your wife, too. 40 is so young. You seem to have made the adjustment well, though.  I don't know what I would do with out my man. Despite his stubbornness, he is my rock, my best friend and a very good man. He's a better person than I am. He really brings out the best in me. |

We longed to grow old together. Boy, were we off the mark. Getting old sucks every which way- together and alone. |

Luckily I drive wild so I shouldn't have to experience that.

... Whenever you guys start talking about honey do lists, I get jealous. The flip side of my coin and the thing that bothers me, is that I can't make a honey do list. I used to do everything myself. I didn't mind, at all. I can do minor car repairs, swing a hammer, do home repairs, garden, etc. But, I'm not as physically capable as I used to be. Now, I just gotta hope DH sees what needs to be done as much as I do. He's not a lazy man in the least, just not terribly observant. Tela, we are so much alike, it ain't funny! I could have written that about myself. Love the last sentence, I think they are all pretty much that way.  But don't get me wrong, they sometimes have their good points. Think I'll keep mine around for a while. |

I could have written that about myself. Love the last sentence, I think they are all pretty much that way. But don't get me wrong, they sometimes have their good points. Think I'll keep mine around for a while. I went to marriage counseling during the beginning of the end of my last marriage. The counselor was a man. He actually told me that most men are passive aggressive, which is why they dig in their heels the way they do. So, I like to think that my man can't help it. He's wired that way. This counselor was also the guy who told me that my husband had a mistress. Alcohol. Funny way of putting it, but he was right. Yeah, my guy is a keeper, too. If he was sitting at this keyboard, I'm sure he'd have plenty to say about me, too. Actually more. He wouldn't though- cause that's how he rolls. |
