His hobby is Mustangs - he has a "65 Fastback and 2 "71s. When he's restoring one of them, I'll go out in the garage with a cool drink for him and ooh and ahh appropriately. We make a good team - on Oct. 24, we'll be celebrating 40 years of marriage. I think I'll keep him. :)
I had my DH for 57 years and tho he never"got it", he realized how happy I was when I was sewing and did admire all the clothes I made for all six of us. That was a BIG money saver and he was a bit on the tightwad side.
