She thought they were old, not untrue man.

She envisions setting up wardrobe units, what does this accomplish man.

Now, nothing in that casa has a rod for hanging clothes, :bonk: man.

 

Russian wife had same plan for our house. 

I had our house built 20 years ago and added EXTRA closets because, well, Americans accumulate a lot of "stuff".  Russian wife likes renovation, and first thing to go are closets.  ("Why so many closets?" she asked)  First to go were two closets in master bath to make room for huge (2+ person) swimming pool size tub.  Closets replaced with.....wardrobe to hold towels and such.

 

His and hers closets in master bedroom eliminated to make bedroom even larger and replaced by large walk in closet that used to be 5th bedroom next to master.  OK, didn't really need that 5th, kind of small bedroom. She tried to eliminate hallway closet on wall opposite 5th bedroom, but I put up a real stink....I won.  Still have hallway closet, but it's smaller now.  Was supposed to be "my" closet for my "junk" but it is now filled with HER "junk".  WHAT THE HECK?

Everyone agrees that Ex-Mrs.-T-B. now has a zero-bedroom casa, we who laugh last laugh loudest man.

Furthermore, that casa has no over-stove kitchen exhaust fan, no man.

When we lived there, only shutting all bedroom doors had any effect on keeping out the stink, ugh man.

Now, she, Mini-B., their clothes, and all future guests will all smell like cooking-odors, not pleasant man.

Thrilling half-Friday report, see with one eye man:

 

We have itineraried Saturday's GSs/ESs, plethora man.

Many (2x2x2) -- yes, Many (2x2x2) -- ESs, Many (2x2x2-1) consecutive man.

Many (2+1) GSs, keep the schedule heterogeneous man.

Two of the GSs are in our favorite nearby small town, restaurant with excellent baked pies man.

We hope that our energy holds up and that it doesn't rain, si and no man.

 

Miu continues to visit litterbox excessively/nonstop, getting quite old man.

Miu now has litter caked between toes, can't lick it all out man.

Litter is now tracked ALL over the casa and atop every furniture piece, never get rid of it man.

We have mentioned in previous threads that we (of course, as a massively successful Business Typhoon) have a reserved parking space at our POTS headquarters, duh man.  The HQ also has a Many-story parking garage for employees & visitors, si man.

 

We can rarely use our reserved space because of the hordes of desperate seek-jobbers who mob the POTS limousine and supplicate us for employment, pests man.

 

We therefore direct our day's chauffeur (Smedley or Jeeves) to lose these peasants by zooming the POTS limousine up to a random floor of the POTS garage, anonymous there we man.

 

We make a game of charting which floor we park on, and, on each Friday, we see which ZIP Code the numbers of the floors correspond to for that week's parking, fun man.

 

There is no first or Many'th (2x2x2+1th) floor, no man.  If we take a day off, we assign a 0, sensible man.

 

Here are the cities/towns/hamlets corresponding to recent weeks of parking, variety man:

 

Carencro, La.

Washburn, Ia.

Garretson, S.D.

*Goldsboro, N.C.

 

New Preston, Conn.

*Canton, Oh.

New Haven, W.V.

 

*know or think that we've been to these actual places in person, very few on list man

Why of why are kids big and small so darn messy. They are disgusting. You would think that the older two (the ones left still) would learn to be neater. They have to clean it up themselves anyways.  The littles have gone way too long without cleaning other then their rooms and pets. So I made them wash the floors and clean their bathroom. OMG the Tornado was so upset I was making her clean. SHe was going on and on that she hates this. She was practically in tears. Of course I helped her because it was the first time I was making her do a deep clean of the bathroom. I'm not that mean :P 

 

Needless to say my house is clean and it didn't take forever.

Why fight it, huh D ma'am?  Simply give in to it, life far easier D ma'am.

Do not displease, irk, anger, or enrage the fearsome Ontarklar, no man!

I will fight tooth and nail.

Hi everobody!

Long time no see :D

Nothing interesting over here.

Got my fist covid shot on Monday. Next one in 5 weeks.

Waiting for the biggest adventure (aka New Zealand trip) in November :)

 

T-B, it makes me sad to read what's happening to Mini-B :( He deserves better. And the dog is always a responsibility of the adult. How old is Mini-B? What will happen if the dog bites somebody? Ex-Mrs-TB will be hold responsible. She has to act responsible. I can understand that she wants a dog. I used to have dog when I lived with my parents. As an adult I fostered one for a month and I know that it's not for me. It breaks my heart but that's the truth. I'm single, I'm not at home at least 9 hours per day and it's even longer in December. It would be a cruelty to have a dog sitting alone for such a long time. So you just have to know your limits. If she wants to have a dog, she must know that it's different in the US that it was in Ecu and act accordingly. But I guess you know she'll do what she wants. I just hope Mini-B finds a bit of happines there.
