Evening all. It has been a cold and slippery time. I have been tired since my late night drive home, but am getting my energy levels back. And to think I was meant to be more relaxed after having a week off!
Well, the kids still seem to like the snow. My daughter has taken part in snow ball fights at school, well so she says. During break, none of the kids are allowed to throw snowballs, but she claims that she threw one in the morning before school. If that was true or not... The roads are starting to become less icy. Note, this is not a moan, driving on ice is an experience, one that I know stresses many and while there are those who say that more should be done to clear the ice, most will not be willing to pay the increased taxes that would be needed to fund such actions. (Sorry, slight political rant.) The family casualty has been my wife who slipped on Monday walking back from school with my son after dropping my daughter off. He moaned that she had hit him in the head, ignoring the pain that she was in on the floor as she was clutching at her sprained ankle.
And on the topic of my son, he was given a card today. From a girl with lots of kisses. Her mother did not appear to be too pleased when I asked if it was a Valentines card!
Anyway, knackered, time to go.
For thousands of years, men have tried to understand the rules of dealing with women. At last this points guide will help you to understand just how it works.
AIM:
Make the woman happy. Do something she likes, and you get points.
Do something she dislikes and points are subtracted.
You don't get any points for doing something she expects.
Sorry, that's just the way the game's played.
