While I will always be his number one squeeze, over the years his attention has wondered.
Rhiannon has a place in Mike's heart that I fear I will never recover.
Meet Rhiannon.
I wouldn't get on board with naming one of our daughters Rhiannon, so Mike created this work of art and got to use the name...
Rhiannon is Mike's electric guitar. He built her from scratch. They have a special bond...something a wife just can't understand, I suppose.
I have referred to Rhiannon as "the other woman" since the day he finished building her.
Well, my friend Rhiannon, there's a new girl in town...and I'm afraid she's gonna win out over both of us for a time.
I am pleased to introduce you to my hubby's latest and greatest love affair...
Over 1,000 square feet of burnin' love, his new shop.
I'm not kidding.
He is in love.
He thinks about "the shop" a minimum of 15,000 times a day.
I think he dreams about "the shop" at night.
He is so excited to set up shop in "the shop".
But first, to give you a real appreciation of how amazing and how far "the shop" has come,
please allow me to show you before and after pictures.
We took a trip to Idaho in March to check out the new abode and finalize the decision.
This was "the shop" then....
Even at this point he was super excited, couldn't wait to get the place spiffed up.We made plans to go back up over Easter break to paint "the shop". Between our visit in March to our visit over Easter those AMAZING people that we will soon be calling neighbors (not just family) emptied THE ENTIRE THING.
W.O.W.!!!
That was a whole lotta work!
But, all their hard work made it possible for Mike to accomplish this, over the weekend....
Are you amazed? Cuz you should be.He has drawn up floor plans as to where all of his tools will be placed.
He is planning on putting the little fridge and microwave he used to have at his office in "the shop".
Once we move up there, he may never set foot in the house again.
The children and I will have pack a picnic and visit "the shop" in order to have a family dinner.
That is, of course, if we are privileged enough to cross the threshold....

*drools just a lil bit.....Whatda woman....er....shop. Its like a day spa for men. Next time I need a little pampering, I think I know who to call. (And by pampering, I mean breaking something just so I can go to "the shop" to fix it).......Did you hear that?
Listen closely
THE SHOP
llllllaaaaaaaaa (angelic singing)
every man needs a man cave, right? he's found his. oh what a happy man! and happy men work harder, right? so he should be cranking out that honey-do list. I mean, with a shop like that, his efficiency should be through the roof! this could prove well for you my friend.
Wow. That looks amazing.
Now all he needs is a TV and cable out there, and he'll be set! That's awesome! So excited for you, that you get to move back to family!
That is one amazing shop! Wow. Mike is going to be one happy man. And how nice of your family and neighbors to empty it out for you. You will be surrounded by good people up there!
Good to see Mike getting a legit "man space." Makes me think I need something bigger.... and lockable.
BTW, opposed to real women Rhiannon does not care if Mike has a little something on the side.
