I guess , I am pretty lucky . Pat doesn't bother me when I am sewing unless I haven't taken a break in a while . He cooks and is always making me coffee and never once does he make me feel I should quit. 2 years ago we made 7 quilts in less than 28 days together . He helped me cut and design and quilt each one. He has a lot of good ideas and very good at picking colors and material out for different projects . He helps even when I made 8 jackets. Several were fractured barjello and some raggy strip . He was awesome putting colors together. Trish

For me it is fishing season....although this fall my husband had two four day trips planned...one backpacking and one fishing, both fell through. And while I felt guilty for feeling this way, it was like "go away so I can miss you' LOL I am blessed with a truly lovely husband, but it is soooooooooooooo nice to have a little space.

Good thing I live so far away, or I would be there in a heartbeat. I love venison!

My husband doesn't hunt anymore. But when he was younger the kids and I couldn't wait for him to go. It was like a vacation. Now he is semi retired, so he gets out of the house for part of the day. I can quilt most of the day except he has a bad habit of wanting to eat.

I've gotten quite a chuckle reading thru these posts. My husband is a deer hunter also so I can relate to the nice solitude, esp. since he is retired now.
