Wasn't he at Osage for awhile? Woodley is a name that kinda fits the circumstance.

Too bad he didn't coach for North Central. He could have been the Manly coach who is Woodley.
Well, if that's the case I don't blame you. If it's a storm door, there may be differences. Is it a Larson door? Those are OK, but Gerkin is much better. (If it's just for the garage, you may not care.)
All I know is that Menards' Mastercraft brand doors are notoriously poor quality. They look good, sure, but they just don't last long. And trying to get service from Menards is like trying to get a freebie from a *****. Ain't gonna happen.
I'll sell you a door, and make you a good deal. We've been delivering up in your area lately (Rockford, right now) and so the delivery wouldn't cost you anything. LMK if interested.
Just back up real fast and slam on the brakes. Unless you have a bed liner. Snow doesn't slide out as well with a bed liner.
And when they DO die, they won't go where they want to go, because they will refuse to ask for directions...More funny:
There were two other couples with us that went through the pre-marriage counselling thing with us. It took us about 15 minutes to realize that we were not going to be the focus of the group sessions.
When asked what the main things we argued about one couple's response was "money" and the other couple's response was "whether to have children or not".
My wife and I exchanged a quick glance that said "Oh, yeah. We've got this."
Yes I do. I could try that in mom's neighbors driveway. They have been P'ing me off lately. The pickup sits at moms due to the massive amount of vehicles we have sitting in ours and I'm the only one who won't scream bloody murder if I have to park there.
I know it's an old joke, but I've never understood this stereotype. I hate driving around lost.
The less time in the car = the less opportunity my wife has to remind me how to drive
My wife and I pretty much aced our pre-marriage counselling, so we had a pretty good idea we were making the right decision. They gave us a written test/survey and when compared we scored at least above average on every category and top scores in most. Our only "concern" going in was my wife is catholic and wanted to be married in a catholic church, but I'm not. We asked the church if that mattered, and their response was along the lines of "as long as you baptize any children catholic, we don't care about the groom."
The most fun aspect of the whole ordeal was a game we played with Legos. We sat back to back, and were given an identical handful of Legos. I was told to build something out of them and verbally explain what I'm doing, step by step. My wife was supposed to follow my steps, and we compared afterward. The sponsor couple was surprised to see them completely identical and told us that was the first time that happened in the 5 years they had been doing that exercise.
The legos would have been a breeze for us. I would just have made a tower and then said I felt this was a waste of my time so I did the quick way and the simple way to make sure we matched. Would have been a pretty good indicator of our marriage also. Basically I don't get worked up about things and if the wife makes a decision that is even remotely possible, I find a way to make it work.
Our pastor explained to me that I needed to "Woo" my wife (now being in RTT i wonder if he was talking about wowing them or as in how Woo would do it), not just demand, DOWN WOMAN!. I was confused there, I was kinda naive and if anybody was the one who pressed the slow button with intimacy in our relationship, it was me. I also had to hold back near laughter from a pastor saying this. We lived together for a few months (wife's idea since she is awful with money and thought she could save this way) before we married, we were engaged though. So every bad thing he was projecting on me was actually from the wife who he thought was extremely pure for some reason.
I was/am pure logic, so I would be full honest with my wife, but didn't like "sharing" with some dude I didn't even know even if he was a pastor.
My favorite was when we were driving through a park and my wife thought I was driving too fast. She reminded me that the speed limit was fifteen. I replied accurately that I was driving twelve.
During our marriage counseling, our pastor told us that we should argue more often. She got divorced about a month after our marriage. We've put up with each other for over 20 years.
I learned today that the thermostat has batteries. I am glad my husband knew what to check and that we had plenty of blankets on Z last night. It got really really cold.
I always just kinda smirk when people say "what married couple doesn't argue, its just natural." I sometimes want to raise my hand and say we don't, but I just keep my silent victory to myself. My wife and I almost never argue and do a great job of co-running the house together.
Many times, that is a situation of growing apart. Sounds off, but (@cowgirl836 here is a possible pitfall down the road) kids may be great for your relationship and they can be awful for them. You spend so much time devoted to their activities and chasing them around that you lose all hobbies and similar interests when they leave.
Know of a few couples that they became empty nesters and then just kinda looked at each other and realized they had nothing in common anymore and they might as well go their own way.
