Wife Points...

I haven’t written for awhile, not because I’m particularly busy or anything, but more because I haven’t had much interesting to say. These past few weeks not too much has been going on. We are just getting back into the same old routine after the holidays.

I did make a purchase for Ben’s birthday (a little early), though, and I think that it has earned me quite a few "good wife points." Benj looks and looks at things before he will buy it. For example, he wanted an iPod so badly a couple of years ago, but would not purchase one for himself, and I ended up doing it for him. So, now he has been drooling over a play station for a loooong time. I know he wants one and I have told him to get one several times; but, of course, he just thinks about it and looks at them and wishes he could have one. Well, I finally just did it for him. I bought him a play station on Ebay along with lots of games and it should be arriving any day now. I should probably be enjoying my husband while I can, because I know that he will be playing that thing a lot—probably too much. But, Benj has worked hard the past four years and he has given me more than I could ever ask for, so I think you deserve it, honey! I hope you enjoy it!

I have also been earning some extra wife points by cooking up some meat from Ben’s hunting trips. Last week we had pheasant several times and this week it’s wild turkey. We had pecan crusted pheasant salad, turkey noodle soup, turkey pot pie, etc…
Anyone hungry??
Seriously, I still have more pheasant and turkey and dove, plus we have elk sticks in the freezer and deer jerky that we need to pick up at Western’s. So, if anyone needs some meat or just wants to try out some new recipes….give me a call.

Anyway, I think I have got enough points stockpiled for a couple of months, so maybe I can slack off for awhile!
