Relationship Big Shock Tonight

Sounds like you got some great ideas there Jawn. Manicure's, Latte's and Dachshunds sound a wonderful idea.

Maybe make the sign but keep it for the future.

Wouldn't the cut-outs kinda freak the real dogs out?:) Be sure you have a video cam for the first time they meet! Sounds like a youtube moment!

 

[Jawn]

ROFL! Hmmm, I might need to water proof the cut-outs too 'cause I think the real dogs would start watering them! ;)

My wife just called and told me that Dale got the floor done and told her how much trim to buy. I guess that means I'd better go look at some trim tonight (now why am I laughing as I type that? :D). I guess I'd better figure out what we're going to use and go buy it tomorrow so he can finish up and I can start moving back into the bedroom. Ahhh, a real bed again. :)

I Love the dachund cutouts idea Jawn!

 

[Nicolette]

I third or forth the dachshund idea - funny but thoughtful and includes effort!

 

[Jawn]

Sounds like I better buy the dachshund pattern and get busy! Hmmm, do I need to buy any power tools for this project? ;)

I came home to find 2 Marionberry scones and a pumpkin muffin in containers on the counter. Yum! I called my wife and thanked her for them and she just said "It's no big deal really, it was a buy one get one sale and I figured you would like them too". It put a smile on my face. She's also really jazzed about how the floor turned out.

Get to work on the ceiling Jawn...:) you know the most dreaded words for a man to hear...."the ceiling needs paint.."

HAAA!!!

 

[amethist]

What are you 2 like. :rolleyes:

Never mind the ceiling, that door still sticks. :D

 

[Jawn]

You guys are talking about stuff I know NOTHING about! I'm clueless about the door comment.

Actually AdamAnt, if she was home and commenting on the ceiling I would be a very happy guy! ;)

OK, so I need to start looking here again. Not trying to hijack your thread but after seeing all that has happened in your life over the last few weeks, I have faced the fact that I have been avoiding anything that is not the "fun" stuff here. Maybe avoiding hearing anything painful.

But I'm "back" so to speak. Not only to be heard but to hear others. And I hear that it was hard on so many levels on Thanksgiving. I continue to hear positive things though. Maybe just that day and that really takes it back to the roller coaster thing. Not only that you HAVE the low points on the ride but maybe that you (we all) should have an awareness that the they are coming. Can't have highs without the lows. Like I have said before, it would be nice if we all could get on the kiddie ride sometimes.

 

[Iam]

Haha Amethist and Adam!!!! I'm not even sure that I know what our ceiling looks like cause the door is stuck closed, and we can't get in that room, Hee! ;)

ISH I think holidays can be tough for anyone hence all the jokes one hears about them. Throw PTSD into the mix and it can become a huge low. Especially considering that this was your first holiday with your wife living apart from you Jawn. I am betting that it raised a lot of conflicting feelings that she just wasn't able to handle.

The fact that you two are on firmer ground again right now at least seems to point to her just not being able to handle the holiday given the new situation. I am glad that things sound good again.

BTW....you need a jigsaw for your dachund project ;)

 

[Jawn]

Wow! A woman that knows her power tools! LOL! Unfortunately I already have a jigsaw.....hmmm, what else might I need? ;)

Yes Iam, she seems like she is doing good now. She called me a little while ago and was laughing and very jovial on the phone. She also used one of my favorite words a couple of times, "WE". :)
