This whole working from home thing is driving me nuts. It seems the wife needs her space just as much as I need mine.
My allergies are kicking just a bit this morning, so I just walked out of my study and headed to the bathroom where there is a box of kleenex.
Wife: Where are you going?
Me: To get a box of kleenex.
Wife: Why?
Me: Because my armpits are itching.
I don't understand how, but somehow I ended up judged as the a-hole in this conversation.

Just do a farmer's blow in the study then tell her to clean it up and make you a sandwich.

Working from home has put an enormous amount of stress on a bunch of families. Mine included. Been trying to sort the mess out for 6 months. Never had a meaningful problem at home until about 3 months after COVID hit. Too much together time is for sure a big part of it.

Real men use a paper towel to blow their nose. Sleeve or sox. Optional is block one nostril and blow.

I've done so much "stuff" around the house already this morning that a nap is in order soon.

My girl and I actually like one another. We live together, fish together, and party together, among other things. Our 20th anniversary is next month. If circumstances result in us spending even more time together, that time is jam-packed with physical and emotional satisfaction.
It's fascinating how many people hitch their wagons to people they don't even seem to like. How sad it must be to watch the one life you have dwindle away into oblivion.
So glad I ditched my "typical" Texas suburban arm-candy halfwit in 2000 and replaced her with a brilliant, progressive lady who really, really, really knows how to play ball AND loves doing it. I would be hard-pressed to come up with even one suggestion to make life any better and this state of perfection is the product of much mindful planning and construction in a setting based on fairness, freedom, equality, and mutual respect and admiration.
2020 was the most fulfilling and lucrative year of our lives.

one of many side effects of this virus. I told my wife that she needed to take a break from Social Media was it was doing nothing but causing her to unbearable to be around. Of course.. I'm wrong according to my wife but I've talked to many of my friends that said the same thing.

its been a great year for us financially, career and personal wise. I have an office, she pops in once in a while, we are loving being able to spend more time "together" especially since she's my best friend. There are several rooms in the house, she or I can always go to one if we need some solitary time. We give each other whatever space we need, and it works. Wouldn't change anything at this point, Its all part of our 3yr 9 month plan for retirement. My girl and I actually like one another.
