Children won't be coming along until about 3 years. She and I have discussed it. In a little less than two years, if not sooner, her car and my truck will be paid off. By the end of the summer, the second mortgage on the house will be gone and there will not be anymore remodeling expenses or wedding expenses. The remodel cost about 30K and the wedding and honeymoon is costing us about 20K of our own money. I can just imagine what 50K will buy next season for hunting and fishing. Heck, if I only use 20% of that I should be doing really well. I am hoping that I stay as busy with work as I am right now. Then again, with this much work I might not be able to hunt or fish at all this upcoming season.
I guess time will tell.

It only becomes Honey Do time if I let it. She knows that I work pretty hard and that I am not willing to give up hunting. She said she hopes that I go hunting more next year because this winter I have been one hell of a complainer and I have been miserable. Plus, she wants to go out on the boat and try fishing. She has also asked me to teach her how to shoot sporting clays. She has gone a couple of times with my brothers and I, but she didn't want to shoot. Behind closed doors she told me she didn't want to shoot because she felt embarrassed, but wouldn't mind shooting if it were just me around.
Don't think I'll ever get her to pull the trigger on an animal, but she might just come hunting to see what it is all about. Granted, she hates the cold so she probably will only be able to come early resident goose season and dove season. Rubicon, Are you married? I know Skeet and TreeDoc are married and the last time I checked they did a bunch of hunting and shooting. Marriage doesn't seem to stop them any, why should it be any different for me. Heck, Skeet owns enough firearms to outfit the National Guard if there is a shortage.

Fabs,I was married 20 years but not now (another story some day) and yes I hunted fished and trapped with my sons , daughter and Moose and his kids during the years of Mr and Mrs . I was just trying to give you a hard time. Got a good one for you though: Guy I met who was helping me train LeeAnn told me he got married while living in southern Md and built a new home on eastern shore for him and his new bride. Home was about done in the fall and they moved in. he was loving life over there in waterfowl heaven and killed some geese. His mud room was not yet finished so he cleaned the geese in the bathtub. Wife got upset so he filed for divorce. said any woman who wont let you clean a goose in the bathtub is too much trouble. He swares its the truth.

He should have known whether or not she would let him clean the goose in the tub before he got married. I know I can give Nitro a bath in the tub or the shower without any fuss. However, the dead animals have to be cleaned in the garage, but the meat can be stored in the freezer. She even likes to cook game. I think cleaning a goose in the tub before getting married and building a house would have cost a lot less than finding out afterward. Honestly, I don't think I would ever want to clean a goose in the bath tub, even if the sink in the mud room wasn't finished yet.
The way I look at it, she has certain things she wants me to respect and I have certain things I want her to respect. I don't think I would be too happy if I came home to find my Mustang's hood being used as a storage shelf. As far as the Mr. and Mrs. story, you can bet I'll remember to ask if we are ever in the blind together.
