Anyone who has known me for at least five years knows my very favorite television show is the Deadliest Catch. I think if you talked to my husband those dudes are sissies, the deadliest job in America is home building.
I've been in the thick of HB for 4 years and just don't get it like Chris and his brothers do. You would think the way Chris talks he was risking life: "so and so pulled a permit! ". "So and so got our lots!". "OMG do you know a home owner wants a different stone on their fire place!?!?" it is frustrating yet funny. The best is the brothers relationship. Having four brothers myself the idea of working with brothers (or sisters) doesn't seem like a good idea. I'm still not sold...
It is funny because I'm the passionate one in the marriage, until this issue of work comes to the table. I just don't get it :p
So I have a new theory. We should cash out of housing and buy a crab boat. When the boys get mad at each other they can be like the Time Bandit brothers who just punch each other if there is a disagreement and move on. Chris and his brothers can crab a few months each year in ice cold weather with employees passing out from exposure, rather than sneaking out to Walmart. I think after a month in the Bering Sea, fricken Las Cruces house building would seem less dramatic.
Blog note: I've been making great strides with recovery but as I recover I've had so much new responsibility. Lot of life catch up losing two months of life! I will take some time to make real posts. The kids are great and good things are happening :)
