Five Question Friday! 2/25/11

Woohoo its Friday. I have a 3 day weekend ahead of me. Thanks to my work for making me take furlough days, but hey I can't complain to much it is my birthday on Monday. Have a good weekend.

 

 

 

 

1. Can you drive a stick shift?

 

Well Yes I can. I have driven a stick shift for 15 years. I can even drive a stick that has 10 gears in it. Doesn't that sound like fun. I think that everyone should learn how to drive to drive a stick shift. You never know when you will have to drive a car that is a standard and not an automatic.

 

2. What are two foods you just can't eat?

 

Radishes and turnip greens. They are not food they are poison. They should be removed from the planet.

3. Do you buy Girl Scout Cookies? What is your favorite kind?

 

No. They use to be good a long time ago but anymore they are not so good. I don't care for them anymore. If I want a cookie I much rather bake them myself.

 

4. How do you pamper yourself?

 

Go golfing. I don't get to do it much because of work, but I hope this year I can get out more.

5. What is your nickname and how did you get it?

 

I rather not say. I have many of them. But if you must know the best one that I had was from my great grandfather and he called me hacksaw. I don't how I got it but I think that it was the best nickname that I ever got.

 

 

 

Five Question Friday! 2/25/11

My Beautiful Loving Wife!!!

Saturday we celebrated our 11^th year anniversary. It has been the best 11 years of my life and I can’t wait to spend the next 100 years with her. She means the world to me and I would not do anything to screw that up. We have had our tough times and our fun times, but I think that over the last 11 years that we have grown closer together. We both have friends and family that have gotten married at a fairly young age and now some of them are divorced or in the process of getting divorced. It is sad to see that people that got married after us are already divorced and on their second marriage or still single.  When we were talking about getting married we both agreed that we will work our hardest to make this work, because divorce was not an option. My love for my wife grows stronger and stronger each and every day. I love the person she is and the love she shows me. I could not imagine spending the rest of my life without her. She means everything to me. One thing that I wish would happen is that my family would step back and see what I see in her and know that she is the most important person in my life and in my world. I will do anything for her at any time with no questions asked. My wife is a very special person that was sent to me and I will not let anything happen to her! I love you!!!

Marriage

You hear all the time what is the secret to marriage? No one ever has the right the answer to that question. It is how you view marriage and what you put in to it. The more you put in to your marriage the more you will get out of it. Marriage is like teamwork, it takes two people to make it work. If one person is doing all the work, then more than likely it will not work out. You have to be willing to help your spouse out no matter what. Your spouse did not make that mess all by themselves or is it just their laundry. When both of you work at it, it will make for a better life. It is not fair to make one person do all the work while the other one sits back and watch’s from the sidelines and tells the other one what to do. Get up and help so that it gets done faster and then you will have time to spend with each other. There is no such thing as spending too much time together. If there is really true love than no matter what happens your spouse will be there for you. You have to pick each other up when one is down or when feels defeated. Let that person know that you love them and that you are always there from them.

So my secret to a happy marriage is to make sure my wife knows that I love her no matter what happens. I believe that god brought us together and that we are meant for each other. I also learned in my 10 years of marriage is not to do or say anything that will piss her off. A happy wife makes for a happy life. You should never talk down to your spouse because you are both equal. Marriage takes work just like anything else. I am the luckiest man on the face of this earth, because I have a wife that loves me and is willing to help me out no matter what. She helps me with homework, mowing the yard, taking care of my grandfather, and even being there when I need a shoulder to cry on.

I have been there for my wife as well. Whenever she needs help I am there, or when she needs a pick me up I try to make her laugh. I have been there when she has lost the most important person in her life. I was there to let her know that I will take care of her and help her through this. I have been there for that shoulder for her to cry on as well. I will be there till the end, she can’t get rid of me.

The best part about our marriage is that we are best friends. I know that I can go to her for anything and that she can come to me for anything. I am there for the rough times and for the fun times.
