Honey do list

To any of the men that might be reading this post, you already know of what I am going to speak. There is list that is composed shortly after marriage, or maybe it starts after the engagement. This list is the "honey-do list". I am not saying the list is a bad thing, but it is a weight on the man's shoulders. Some guys lists might be longer than others, but mine is manageable. One of the bigger things I checked off my list was basement shelves for all our moving boxes, and other things. I seized my opportunity to complete my task when my lovely wife ( and little girl ) went on an economic conference for work in Richmond Va. a few weeks ago. I had a week. The first day, Monday, was hot and draining at work. I got home and crashed. The next 2 evenings were spent at my parents, and my in-laws eating supper. Thanks for the awesome grub! So, that brought me to Thursday. I purchased the material, and proceeded to pour out massive amounts of testosterone. I was drilling in the cement walls, cutting wood, sweating, and lifting. I would start after work, 3:30p, and work until 9-10p with supper at 10:30ish. I did this Thur-Fri, and all day Sat. I finish it before my wife, who I missed terribly, came home at 8p on Sat. She loved the shelves, and understood why it took a bit to complete. I did surprise her with a magnetic-type picture frame thing also. Our friends Brenda and Bradi had these frames at their houses, and they had them made, and Jeanne loved them. So, I did earn a bit of a reprieve from the list, but soon the list will come up, and more tasks will need to be completed. But for now, I will enjoy the time off.
