What a glorious couple of days! DW and I hit the outlet mall yesterday a few minutes after they opened and had the entire place to ourselves. Met our best friends for lunch when we got back to town,then they came over to help decorate the tree and the rest of the house. (Actually,the women did it. My fishing buddy and I watched fishing shows in the man-cave.) Played Yahtzee and ordered pizza out. Ran errands all this morning and the love of my life went into serious shopping mode with her BFF while I took a much-needed nap. Then I fired up the Univac and found not much had changed in the last couple days. Didn’t really figure it would. Well,I can catch up on the outrages over the weekend. Let’s just enjoy this life for what it grants us and give all praise to He who created all things.

Why a man suffering a cold will be in agony, but a woman will shrug it off: Survey finds men are martyrs when it comes to illness
I have yet to meet a woman who is not of the opinion that men are worse than little kids when they’re sick.We whine and want to be waited on hand and foot.(not me.personally,but I’ve heard other men are.)

LOL, so true.
This is why they men do not give birth. But is sure wish they would have to experience the pain. Then they would understand why a little cold is not such a big deal.

I love how their wives high five each other, and the way the guys look after only one hour.
I would love to have my husband go through this 25 and 32 hours like I did, with NO pain medication.
I want to smack him when he says we should have had more kids.

I tried to post this as a “reply” to WTF products for women, but WTF???? The “reply” button takes you back to the article. Crazy.
I have never heard of any of those products, thank the Good Lord. But I did see one that sort of blew me away the last time I was at the cosmetic counter – about 3 years ago. The lady tried to sell me “primer” for mascara. If that doesn’t beat all…
So glad you had such fun days, Pete! It is so good to get together with friends and let the rest of the world pass you by for a while.

I’ve seen that mascara primer — also primers for lipstick and eye shadow. You’re supposed to use them after you put on your moisturizer and before you put on your makeup. I’ve even seen fixatives that you’re supposed to use after the makeup to make it stay on longer. Talk about the layered look!

I would never have the time or the interest for all those layers. I am very good about washing my face and using sunscreen, but other than that it takes an occasion to make me put on more than the sunscreen and clear Neutrogena lip balm. Too busy, but mostly not interested.
