“Beware Of The Doorbell Camera”

Hey. Calling all married men. Listen up. Question: Are you a married man who, like me, let your wife convince you to install a doorbell camera? All in the name of keeping the home safe, right? But……in actuality the doorbell camera was really installed to watch YOU! That’s right fellas.

It took a minute to for me to realize but it has become obvious. Everytime I leave my house my wife sees ME on it. Everytime I return to my house my wife can see ME on the camera. There are some days when I want to come and go as I please without anyone knowing my whereabouts but the doorbell camera makes this impossible.

To be honest my house doesn’t need security cameras. Been here for many years without incident. My street is so quiet people often ride by without even noticing the homes.  Nothing here to see. My wife doesn’t care. The cameras stay. Honestly, she added to what we already have.

So to my married brothers: Hopefully you are smarter than me and refused to install outdoor cameras. Or, unlike me, maybe you have outsmarted your wives and can move freely about you homes undetected by already installed units.

Time for me to figure something out. I got some things I need to sneak into the house because I’m running out of room in my car…….

“This Woman”

Clear. As clear as a mind could be. As softly as a heart could beat. As quietly as she would breath.

Alone. As intently as she would stare. Her life and soul openly bare. Wasting love without so much as a care.

Broken. As beautiful as any living thing. So much joy to life she would bring. Bound by limitations her ring.

Lonely. Dancing on Christmas Eve bold. Red wine glasses out in the cold. Soft hands with no one to hold.

Tempted. A stare through the company crowd. Needing to scream it aloud. No feelings to feel or allowed.

Submission. She gives you all you can take. A heart already broken cannot break. What of this woman would someone make.

“A Good Week for Dessert”

Man my family spoiled me this week. I’ve been forbidden to eat store bought baked goods due to the “extra junk they put in them”. Okay, so what do I do if I want cake or doughnuts? Make our own they say.

So, my wife made Chocalate Chunk cookies and bread. My sister made a yellow cake with vanilla icing for my son’s birthday. And for good measure I actually tried my hand at Chocalate Chip muffins (hey, I needed something for breakfast…..). 

All were good. Doughnuts next week!
