After 38 years I still have a lot to figure out. What I know for certain is God is good, my wife is the best person I have ever met, and raising kids is hard!
If you ever want to ruin your golf game, take your 8, 7, and 3 year old with you. Went from playing as good as I can to “s” word in 3 holes. Happy Mother’s Day!
Nobody told me that growing up would mean….
1) Going to a kids’ birthday party every weekend, sometimes multiple in a weekend
2) Having lawn envy for any lawn with lush grass and mint stripes
3) Losing my breath when I bend down to tie my shoes
I’m missing The Masters because I am at a 7-year old’s birthday party. Honestly, I don’t even like the kid whose birthday we are celebrating.
I told my wife next year we are having our daughter’s birthday on a different weekend.
This will not be a “Tradition Unlike Any Other”
@JerryQuickel Any Iowa Hawkeye helmets you need to get rid of, I have a great spot for in my man cave. Equally impressive to your helmet collection is the great yard you have. Respect to both!
I was feeling “trendy” & did the “Hunny, can I order a sandwich or do you want me to get salad again?” The waitress laughed, I laughed, it was great. Wifey said “Does it look like I deprive him from food?” The waitress and I made eye contact and the tears set in. Wife - 1 Me - 0
@bennettblk The game was back and forth all afternoon, dog fight you might call it. My teammate missed a shot at the end to win it. I’m confident after he was ridiculed the whole way home and sent to bed without supper, it won’t happen again.
My son wanted to get some shots up at the rec when I got home from work. I can never turn that down. When we arrived two 6th grade boys asked us to play 2on2. GAME ON! Wife is all fussy because I was 30 minutes late to our anniversary date night. She don’t know ball.
0-1 on being able to watch NCAA Tournament Games on one of my TVs. Currently Bluey and Barbie Dolphin Magic are playing. Sometimes I pretend I’m watching basketball and it’s just as good.
I was in the elevator at a hotel this weekend and a boy in a wheel chair entered to go down to the lobby. He had a basketball jersey on. I asked him if he had a game today and he said yes. Then I said “How’s the jump-shot looking?”
He laughed and said not good.
@BarstoolBigCat Nashville was a great host and the last 4 days were a blast. The amount of Montana State fans there was also impressive. Several of the bars we went to Monday morning were sold out of multiple brands of beer.
I’ve unplugged the WiFi from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. each of the last two days. The kids are driving me insane to the point where I want to give in, but I’m trying to stay strong.
I’m a victim of this situation twice now. Buy a van, dealership locks you in a room until you agree to buy a warranty (no matter how many times you say NO-agree almost so they let you leave) Both times we have major issues with van and warranty doesn’t cover the problems.
