Reading a map is one of my favorite things to do when traveling. I also like assembling those little cheap cabinets from Target and using my leveler when putting up a rod to hang a tapestry. How are we going to satisfy the plea for more women engineers if we continue to teach our daughters that they might ruin their manicures if they hammer a nail into the wall. <br />I'm all for being feminine when I want to be, but sometimes executing a little brain power and strength is so satisfying.<br />On the flip side, you're a man, so you know, generally speaking, what a man wants and needs. I agree that your ego needs to be stroked and fed; and sometimes is fun to oblige. Maybe a little compromising? Also, I've heard women chew a man out if he offers help. A simple "No thank you" should suffice.<br />This post makes me think of Neuroplasticity, but that's another 1000 keystrokes, so I'll punt.<br />Have you missed my chatty comments? lolAnitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08180243708565855383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-89144039374552085882014-10-07T12:32:52.157-04:002014-10-07T12:32:52.157-04:00Hey, if it is hard and an ugly job, come here fell...Hey, if it is hard and an ugly job, come here fellow.

Far-ranging subject and I'm just waking up, but too much of anything on TV will have an effect on the people watching it.<br /><br />This is easily the most female-dominated culture of modern times. Whether that's a good thing or a bad thing will be proven by succeeding generations.Suldoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07778845367184916684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-20232582257898568192014-10-07T00:24:32.752-04:002014-10-07T00:24:32.752-04:00Can't pump gas so that's my need :) But I ...Can't pump gas so that's my need :) But I do try to do a lot of stuff myself, not that I can't let hubby do some of it, but what happens if he passes before me?

He gave me an actual crutch off a nail in the garage wall, from when he had knee surgery, to wedge in there, rather than get a hydraulic thingy to fix my hatch. I know he KNEW HOW to fix it. After all, he and his buddies took an old Mack truck and sawed up that main beam thingy that ran down the length of it, shortened it, added hydraulics, and made a dump truck.<br /><br />He gave me a crutch.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-70822349774543855832014-10-06T19:42:08.453-04:002014-10-06T19:42:08.453-04:00Yeah, I do the jar lid opening.

Males keep the females away and don't mind eating with cubs, sharing the meal. Just food for thought. Now I'm hungry for a fresh slab of zebra!
