Garage Majal

Handsome Husband (HH, for short) purchased a new oriental rug last week.  It is a handsome specimen, 10' x 12', in rich colors of tan, burgundy, brown and black.  It doesn't go with any of my furniture, but that's okay - it's for the garage.

It is football season, after all, and everyone knows that a man cave needs an oriental rug.  And the best television in the household.  And some "wine furniture."

HH says that the TV helps to keep the garage clean.  When it's not football season, he likes to loop Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery, The Godfather, and Deliverance DVDs.

But like The Shadow,  I know what evil lurks in the drawers of the man cave.

Some drawers are not mine to clean.   So if you are looking for a tool in my house, ask me.  I keep a tool kit under my bed.

But I have tackled some of the cabinets.  Heaven knows that important items, like Mardi Gras beads and  holiday lights in colors suitable for Ravens or Packers football games, are stored here.

Like all of us, I have a few hard choices to make, deciding whether to keep things for grandchildren who have yet to exist

But it's all under wraps.  Don't be surprised if you come to my house and we offer you a drink in the garage.   Unlike Prince Harry in Vegas, you can feel comfortable accepting.
