Right now, I'm giving my husband what he really appreciates. Playing his bass. He is playing his bass in the kitchen! Now, he has a man cave. A recording studio is a better term. But this morning, he chose the kitchen. I can't watch my tv. I can't hear my phone ring. I can't hear my own thoughts. Sorry if this blog is a bit choppy. He said I hope you don't mind. I don't mind. Honest. But the cats do. I'm more worried about where they will run and hide because DADDYS big bass amp is in the kitchen!
So, I can pass through the kitchen and get a glass of coke, and not say a WORD! Allergy season. Bad asthma attack this morning. I couldn't put up a fight even if I wanted to right now. And, I'm enjoying some of the songs he is playing. Most people would say this is not an easy dare to do. Sometimes I put up a big fight. But when it comes to his hour of Bert's time, he usually gets it playing his bass. I'd rather us be heading out to go get pizza! By the way, I had to write that down to tell him I was hungry.
But with today's dare, I'm letting him have his time in the kitchen playing his bass. Regardless of him having a studio or man cave to go play in. I know what he has to learn before tonight. I will not stop him. I will not fight him on this. I am willingly letting my husband practice in the kitchen. Oh my... he should appreciate this blog! Giving into this battle didn't cost me a thing. I actually wish he would practice in the kitchen more often. I'm sure he thinks I get tired of hearing him play. That's why he goes to the studio. In reality, I like the company. I like t he sound of music. Always loved music myself.
By letting him win this battle, I think it will really improve our future to show that he can have his time with me in the next room. I hope it shows I want to be a part of his music. I love you Mr Bert Guidry!

Playing in the kitchen was out of convenience
I had had to carry it out the front door anyway.
Playing in the kitchen was closer.
Its wasn't about being a battle.
If you didn't like it you didn't say anything, even though you couldn't voice you opinion.
LOL
I gave in on your I'm not ready to go home yet, and went where you wanted to go Fri morning.
I was tired and ready to go home, so chose not to argue with you about, we just went.
As much as I hate to fight, argue, battle.
I sometimes have to stand my ground.
Our battles are minor, we have no children, we go to church when we can, and music is something we both love. You involvement makes it easy. I love you and I like it alot when we agree on things and make compromises.
I thing the compromises back and forth is what makes it good.
I think I go out of my way sometimes to your shows. Last night being one of them. Showed up and wasn't able to speak. I was sick should have stayed home. I went to support and cherish your playing time on stage for a set.
I am willing to bend to demonstrate love for you.. I choose to honor you because I love you. I love everything about you. Playing music is one of those things I love about you.
