I hope to see you on hoarders one day with rooms full of animal bones and cats!!

Oh, and she is completely out of her mind but I thought they're all that way.

Or make it man-room worthy. :D

BTW, brewguyver, she needed your entire office for her SHOES??? WTF?? If it's anything like the size of my office, she should open up a shoe store. :eek: Shoes that are worn less than once a month get tossed/sold at a yard sale. Unless they have benefits to YOU that is. :D

Normally I'd agree, but they act like shiny objects shown to someone w/ADHD - wave a nice pair of 4" heels and she forgets I'm on the 17th hour of a "this will only take 5 hours I swear" brew day. They don't need to be new shoes either - she has enough that I can just wave any flashy pair and it works :ban:. The only gotcha is when I do something really stupid - that takes at least a 3 minute contact time.

Wow, that is hysterical. Creamy, your house must be a laff riot a minute.

Actually, you sound a little like my dad. I can't tell you how many times I came home as a kid to find some random animal skull, bone, etc. on the counter. When I was ten, it was the best thing in the world. One time, he even found a dead falcon by the side of the road (hit by a car) and brought it home in a plastic bag. We thought it was so awesome! My mom did not.

My mom also wasn't amused when I used the bathtub to revive a catfish I caught when I was 12. I can still hear the screams in my head to this day.

If you tell him it was all in the interest of brewing better beer, he'll probably side with you. Especially if you provide samples to show what you were able to accomplish with the knowledge gained. :D Of course, you might need more than one keg for repeated 'sampling of evidence'... :D
 
This thread truly hurts my head. It must have been inspried by a BobbiLynn thread.

The gal is really my pal but she makes me want to go nuts .. with a cow?

Doesn't matter have fun with her. She can take an answer and make you perfectly unclear.

So BobbiLyn, while you make us all grin. Life on HBT with out you would make our hearts thin.

Bad rhyming that's what I do. BobbiLynn this is for you.

This isn't even a BobbiLynn thread.. is it?

Right now I don't quite care .. she'll see this somewhere
 
Hey, wait a second, I am being blamed for something that I did not do. It was 100% CreamyGoodness' fault for trying to clean his bone in the guest room, I had absolutely no influence over that or how this topic started out. I merely got on to offer a couple "helpful" suggestions for next time, if he really does want to make that Halloween decoration. And earlier I said my stomach hurt, that was from laughing so hard!!!
 
Yep, the only female with a say in my life is 40 years younger than me.
My daughter does run the house...... BUT, she is being trained to be a good women when she grows up.
She had her hands on a dead deer at about six months old, by four years old she was wanting to touch the heart, liver, lungs and eye on a dead deer.
She won't be a woman who makes a big deal about bleaching a bone!

She thinks dragging home rusty gold in the form of old cars, shooting something to eat and farting are normal!

Any other woman wants to step foot in here, she's going to have to accept that and understand when I want to spend a few hundred for more beer equipment, buy a new gun, rebuild another car or have a few guys over to empty a keg.

If she doesn't like that, she's not welcome.

Sharps I as well thought I had raised my child right. She could skin a coyote at 12 and would go hunting with me all the time. Sigh now at 15 all she can think about is boys and shoes with stupid high heels on them. I ask her to skin a few coyotes and get told no I have to go shopping for shoes:mad:

Honestly all you can do is try and raise them right and hope they do not follow the evil path of clothes and boys.

All you can do is your best. Hope it all works out.
I'll bet she's in less trouble than if you hadn't given her all that attention by including her in your interests though.
I bet you gave her a good basis for life, even if she doesn't follow through with the same interests.
