Nope, no wife. And I'd still shop the same way even if I was married. I'd just switch out the Amazon tags for handwritten ones. Besides, being married to a genuine SwiftDog should be plenty for anyone

The BF asked me to make a list of things I'd like so he could choose from that. I sent a list of about five items I'd like, including the phrase "any of the Daisy perfumes by Marc Jacobs, they all smell divine" ........apparently, he checked online for that, because the message I received back was "Have you lost your damn mind?" I literally laughed out loud...... I had no clue it was so pricey. I just liked the fragrance and the bottle
So how much is it?......I didn't look.I looked it up. Yes, you have lost your damn mind! VERIFIED!
About $60 for s tiny bottle of toilette spray, and $100 for the better kind. But who in their right mind would want to put stuff from the toilette on themselves?

LOL. I just spray some Febreze into the air and walk through the mist. Redneck cologne.
I don't want the eau de toilette......I never could wrap my mind around spraying toilet water on my body.About $60 for s tiny bottle of toilette spray, and $100 for the better kind. But who in their right mind would want to put stuff from the toilette on themselves?
No wonder he thought I had lost my mind!
I like perfume. However, in small doses and not too powerful. I have been known to get a headache, if someone's perfume is too strong.

Got the outside Christmas decorations up Sunday. Temps never got above freezing. Had to take about 5 breaks to get feeling back in the fingers and toes. But the wife is happy with how it turned out. Not looking forward to taking it all down in about a month. Covered the pool table with the ping pong table that we do for a month. Also got 40 pounds of 5 different types of birdseed and suet for the wild birds for Christmas… for feakin’ birds… I must be crazy.
Went to my Godmother’s house for the weekend, played white elephant and got a Rudolph the red nosed reindeer mug out of it.
Just leave the lights up all year! Birds will greatly appreciate the food offerings.Got the outside Christmas decorations up Sunday. Temps never got above freezing.

Hot coco from the mug will keep you toasty warm.
I've often said we should just leave the lights up all year round. One year it wasn't until February until I took them down. That's the year the wife created the 11th commandment... Thou shalt not leave Christmas decorations up past January 10th.
Yeah, the birds appreciate it be leaving 'deposits' on everything.
We got our kids' shopping done, the ones at home anyway. I still have to shop for Brandon, Marti and the littles and Scott.
Have not gotten cards done. All the wrapping to do. I feel very behind.

Nature's way of "recycling".
On Sunday there were about 10 Morning Doves at one of the feeders. I told the wife... 'Look, dinner... and they're in season right now.' Now that's recycling.Nature's way of "recycling".

Orange & Rosemary Grilled Doves
What you need:
18 to 20 whole doves plucked
2 tablespoons grapeseed or canola oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups fresh orange juice (about 4 large oranges)
zest of 1 orange
1 tablespoon rosemary, chopped
2 tablespoons honey
1/8 teaspoon pepper
pinch salt
What to do:
Prepare grill. Brush doves with oil and season with salt and pepper. While the grill is heating, prepare the glaze by combining the orange juice, orange zest, rosemary, honey, pinch of salt, and pepper. Bring to a good simmer over heat and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until it has reduced and thickened.
When the grill is ready, place the doves on the grill, breast up. Grill for three minutes with the cover on. Remove cover, do not flip, and brush the glaze on each bird. Cover and grill for 9 to 11 minutes depending on how well cooked you like your dove.
Remove the doves to a serving platter.
Yummmm… sounds like a new Christmas holiday meal tradition is in the makings.
