The wife, personal cheerleader of men.

How many times have I heard that!!!

“It’s about five miles past the old Johnson’s barn that burned down about five years ago.”

I spent 35 years as a Truck driver, beginning long before navigation systems and the like, and I can guarantee that this is SO TRUE!! ANYTIME someone ended a set of directions with those 4 fatal words, I KNEW that I was in trouble!!

He axle-dentally collided with the manure spreader.

My husband learned early on not to give me directions that included North, South, East or West. I am directionally challenged.
