'smellybuck' says, "i've found the happier my wife is, the more she wants me to be happy - and she will actually encourage me to go have fun"...if this is the case, then i must have what is, or close to being, the happiest wife there is...i go 5, sometimes more, days a week to the hills. i leave early..4:30 - 5:00am...she always has a lunch in the frig for me to take..she always asks which direction i'm going, and SHE ALWAYS says, "have fun". she knew when she met me 25 years ago what i like doing...she goes with me every other week or so, and she loves going. she has a full-time job which she likes as much as i like going to the hills. last night we went out to dinner...we don't go often, but we do go once in awhile...she likes that, too. she also enjoys me taking pictures for you guys as much as i do taking them for you...she always asks, "did you get them any good pics today?" i like what i do, she likes what she does...works well for both of us....make it work well for you too, UTWAD...good luck...
