He Said: “Patience is a Virtue”
July 14, 2010 by Kat
There are times that I feel like I’m married to two women. On most days, I’m married to the superhero known as ”NormalGirl.” You know…the girl that has it all together, a great mom, an even better wife and friend, can leap empty bottles of champagne in a single bound. She can handle any and all situations, [...]

Before reading my post you NEED to click on the following link to get Kat’s side of Part Deux: My eyes are crossed and my head is spinning – that post took so many twists & turns that even a trapeze artist would be intimidated. Read, watch, read watch – and oh, the facial expressions! [...]

The snapshot to the left is a picture-perfect image of Kat when she realized that she lost her application. Except for the fact that it was 8:30 at night, and she was still in her PJ’s from the night before…and she was crying not yelling…and she has a Mac…and she’s not a blond. Kat’s trip to the ATL is [...]
He Said: “Wedding Crasher(s)”
June 22, 2010 by Dave
My wife threatened to cut off all privileges if I brought up HER nap on Father’s Day. So I won’t… What I WILL bring up, however, is Friday night’s dinner date. We don’t get out nearly enough as a couple, but we were both very-much looking forward to our evening together. The night started as [...]
He Said: Wanna “Slap me with a Wet Noodle”?
Over the past few weeks, there were times that I have wanted to whack the wife with a wet noodle, but after reading her initial post today I’m about to bludgeon her with something worse! I’m picturing something similar to Captain Caveman’s equipment to the left. One of the points that Dave Ramsey makes is that each [...]
He Said: Purification Day “21″: Mission Accomplished!
June 14, 2010 by Dave
The stretch run was difficult, but we were able to get through the Purification Program without killing each other. I did NOT go into this with 100% excitement (as you may know, I did it more to support Kat than for my own well-being). However, it turned out better than I could have possibly imagined. [...]
He Said: “Camera Shy?”
June 5, 2010 by Dave
EVERYONE has – or has had – a goal in life where you know you’d be shooting for the stars. When I was younger, mine was to be a baseball player. Being that I peaked at age 8, my dream was nothing more than that. Now, I have a dream to be part of a [...]
He Said: Purification Days 7 & 8: “Woman Overboard!!”
June 3, 2010 by Dave
Outside of my two lunch mates ordering the all-you-can-eat pizza buffet while I had the “Vegetarian Garden Salad,” the Purification is going rather well! I’m no longer disappointed to see that we’re having cauliflower on consecutive nights anymore, nor am I upset when I walk into the office to the smell of freshly brewed coffee. The adjustment took [...]
He Said: “Life is Messy” (& so is my freakin’ pantry)
I had a GREAT Memorial Day Weekend. We hit the pool twice, I actually made it to the gym all 3 days, we rearranged the kids’ rooms, and the weather, for the majority of the weekend, was in agreement with our plans. Probably the best part of the holiday was the fact that I finished the [...]
He Said: “If My Life Were a Book”
May 13, 2010 by Dave
“My” Kat decided on “Mama” Kat’s prompt #5 (Did you ever think you’d see a reference to two Kats in the same sentence? Trust me – one is enough…) - Here goes… Close your eyes and envision a care-free home, where your wife is always on time, the kids use table manners at every meal, and the [...]
