All men are

My husband is a frustrated mechanic, technician, electrician, plumber, carpenter, painter, etc. Well, I guess all men are or should be. Oh, is that being discriminatory of me when it comes to the opposite sex? Surely, we should not put a label on any one. Anyways, two days ago, he decided to fix his own motorcycle. To think that he really did not have any background at all for him to be able to do that. He ended up having bruised and dirty hands. Next time, he should wear Mechanix gloves. Okay, I should have thought of that before. That will be included in my list next time I go to the grocery and/or hardware store.

Who is lost?

There are some fights that we get into in our daily lives. Fight with the traffic, fight with a co-employee, fight with a boss, which is not really good… and of course, fights with our loved ones. It is alright if we were caught on those petty fights. Somehow, it adds color to life. But, sometimes, fights get ugly. Now, that is the time that we hoped that everything is just pale or just the way it is. We just like life to be boring, so what. At least, all is peaceful.

I had a fight with my husband a few days ago. I slept it out. We did not talk for some hours after all the shouting, the crying and the hurting. We stayed calm afterwards. Finally, when evening came, I sort of gave in and broke the silence. It has always been like that. Why always like that? Anyways, that fight caused his BP to rise, 150/100, or maybe it was that high already even before the fight that was why his patience was short and could not tolerate me anymore. Yeah, he has always been patient to me and our kid. Well, he does not speak to me about things that I would like to hear. There are times that I do not know what is going inside my mind. Ah, marriage… I miss the old “him” though. The one who was crazy about me. Anyways, maybe, I lost the old me, too.

Rough hands

When you are introduced to a person, do you offer a shake hand? That is the usual thing to do. In other countries though, a peck on the cheek is just normal.

I just thought of the first time that my hubby and I shook hands. Well, his left hand was rough then. I wondered if he did not like to put lotion or he was really industrious. We have this saying that if your hands are hard and have a rough feel, you work too much in the house.

My hubby and I had our first date the first day we met. There I learned that his favorite sports was baseball. However, they were just playing on the streets and did not have the necessary gears.They did not have Baseball Gloves. Well, now that we are married, I also found out that indeed, he is a man in action. He cleans the house better than I do. The problem is, he gets grumpy whenever I and our son make some clutter again!

Our son now does not have any sports inclination yet. One reason that could be attributed to that is because, he also does not have many playmates as we did have before. I think that is not healthy. Outdoor sports is always fun. I would check on kidsportsinc.com and see what could be of use to my son so that he could play outside and attract other kids also.
