Sunday, January 01, 2006 WTF? It’s very common for me to open the door to the garage only to be presented with this scene.![]() You: “What is it?” Me: “I don’t know. He was gesturing wildly when he explained it to me and it has something to do with storing sheets of plywood, planing, catching, routers, saws and some other stuff. Oh, and it has moving parts.” You: “huh?” Me: “Just smile, nod and say ‘cool’.” John is beyond talented. He gets an idea of what he needs/wants, then wanders around town trying to find it. Thing is, nothing ever meets his exact specifications. So typically he buys the closest thing and modifies it. If he can’t find something close to modify, he simply builds it himself. Yes it drives me crazy, but just look at the twinkle in his eyes. ![]() And yes, this is a 3 car garage you cannot park a car in. But the twinkle.... posted by me | 6:58 PM | 12 comments Comments: Post a Comment Don't you guys have a workshop that rivals your mansion/house in size? Can't you find a place in there to work on that thingamajig and free up the garage space for your cars? This is for the workshop. Apparantly the workshop cannot be used until the workshop is completed and holds every tool known to man. You guys must be fabulously wealthy because all you do is build and buy, build and buy. It's a little wearisome. I, on the other hand, married a man who needs to hire someone to screw in a lightbulb, but only after destroying our entire electrical system first because he thinks he knows what he's doing. Anonymous Popo, I bet your man has many talents. Plus, he's a hottie (can I say that?) # posted by Colleen : 1/05/2006 12:52 PMScrew off Anonymous...Just for starters, Colleen's contribution to society are her wonderful children and this hilarious blog.

He does look so very happy. Mine is of the helpless but sweet variety also. But at least he admits ignorance most of the time. Christine, isn't Isaac also incredibly musically inclined? And also a hottie I might add. # posted by Colleen : 1/07/2006 10:57 AMpuke...what is with all the meanie anonymous people,geesh Back to Blog |
