Home again?


Lately Michael has not had to go into work as much as he used too. It's a taste of what retirement will be like. There are some pros and cons to this:

Pros: Spends more time with the kids, gets unfinished jobs done around the house, play more as a family, we sleep in a little longer, run errands together......

Cons: He sees how much time I spend on the computer, makes the girls cry more with his teasing, he thinks we can "make bread" more, finds more work for me to do around the house....

All in all we've had a great time. Life is full of surprises.......

Ah! Those guys love them some fresh "bread". I had these same issues when Ross came home. Hang in there babe! Do I hear a girl's night calling?

I am glad to hear Michael is home more. You deserve it!! You guys should learn a new hobby together, maybe take him to one of your pilates classes :)

hmmm, "bread". Haven't heard it put that way before... Enjoy it!!

I just asked Troy if he wanted to "make bread." He said, no. Must not be a universal term.

Let me address these posts 1 by 1.

Kelly: "Issues" What do you mean "issues". You make it sound like a disease or an IRS audit! There goes my reputation!

Alisa has a good idea. Your new hobby can be bread making!

Tiff: Its all about the look in your eye when you say "Want to make bread?" Try again and raise 1 eye brow, that is a language every one knows.

Now if you will all pardon me I need to go find my apron and chefs hat. .... .. Hey, Kelly !!!!

LOL....Ross, thank you for your comments! Maybe you and Michael could do some more bike rides :) And then Kelly and I and Alisa and Vicki and Tiff etc etc can go have a girls night!

I agree! It is great for a little while when the hubby is home. But, then he starts to intrude on your daily routine... Even if that routine is spending time on the computer.
