Oh, BTW... thanks for the comments. I'm not sure that properly or completely expresses my thoughts but it does contain some high-points. Based on a lot of the comments I hear, folks taking things for granted is an important problem.

The reason my current and last marriage is going to last is because we have learned how to commnicate. Having kids made us grow up, but communication; for us is the key. Communication at our house....wife talks, I listen, I agree. For me; I beg and sometimes get sex. When you get old, the begging is the foreplay.

I think it's important to keep things in perspective. Guys can't help leaving junk around any more than we can help crying over a chick flick. I always ask myself...."How important IS it?" In the big scheme of things, it doesn't really matter. After a few years, I got pretty creative about stuffing his junk in grocery bags and jamming it in closets when unexpected company was coming with 15 minutes notice.

I have an area of the kitchen counter where I put my keys and cell phone and various receipts and scraps of paper, nuts and bolts and things that are way too important to throw away at the time. They accumulate there for a while then she puts it all in a paper shopping bag and I go through it a few weeks later and throw most of it away. It's almost a ritual. I'm a pack rat by nature.

My solution was to finsh out the basement with a full bath, kitchen, bedroom, two TV rooms, video game room and general playroom for the kids. Took me three winters to complete. Did not work as the four kids, cat, bird (that will not shut up) and fish now live in the basement. I am thinking about building a storage unit with loft and move my stuff into it.

Guess what? I tried sardines (in mustard sauce) and they weren't bad! Thanks, Lisa and Nancy!
I know, very exciting!!

Not even close to getting the bike. But, we will be getting a substantial income tax refund shortly, and I think that will be the time! I think I'm also going to sign up for a cycle clinic at the Y, because I have NO formal cycle experience, and one of my goals is to do some group rides. I'm still feeling a bit intimidated by that one, but it's good to stretch out of one's comfort zone on a regular basis!

Good for you with the tax refund! I'm glad for you about a new bike, but actually I was talkin' about your new Honda. Hope you've enjoyed it - and having the extra room. Gosh, I hope we get a refund, too. We've had so many huge expenses hit all at once - new concrete for the garage floor and part of the driveway, masonry work, kids' school tuition, garage and basement renovation. I've been writing checks with lots of 000s in them. We can't spend any more money for a while. |

I'm a bit ashamed to barge in like this but... Try fresh sardines, brushed with olive oil and seasoned with a little sea salt on the grill. This is how I learned to eat them in Portugal and this is how we eat them every Summer with a glass of Vino Verde.

Barge in ANY time, Frans! We're always thrilled to see the guys here! That actually sounds pretty good! Mind you.....I'll have to wait til the 2 feet of snow is gone from my BBQ before I can attempt that....unless it's something that would work on an indoor counter grill?
