Ah Mad Chaos....

Things That We Have Recently Learned:

1) some people you work with will be dirty rotten sharks...there will be no comfort that you are a better person than them when they try and steal employees out from under you, get you in a bad spot with your boss, and lie to confuse you constantly....

2) the best thing to do when dealing with rotten sharks is to consult your wife--who has used her crazy skills for good and not evil, but can guess the moves of the rotten shark and keep you ahead

3) you will triumph as the better person for the job while said shark is transferred to Florida---times like these call for a great celebration dance

4) don't wait until your car starts chugging like a choo-choo to mention to your husband that something maybe...possibly...could be wrong...you need all new tires

5) surprise! your alignment is all out of wack---apparently curb checks are the enemy to blame

6) when your expensive vacuum breaks and happens to be the one thing in the world your handyman husband can't fix--you will go for your warranty....surprise! it's lost....no, it's not in the filing cabinet with all the others, not in the housewares basket and not on the fridge....it is probably long since been recycled

7) you will celebrate that in the meantime you have the old vacuum, now reserved for the office/catroom to vacuum with....and immediately regret vacuuming at all when your whole house begins to smell like cat litter

8) after being married 4 months, you will have been asked at least 30 times what your baby timeline is....*note* people that ask this do not appreciate the two of you laughing and exchanging a look

9) when walking the dogs in your part of 'little mexico' you will marvel at how the whole neighborhood really does smell like fabuloso and tamales

10) the moment you tell your husband 'I don't need your help, I'm perfectly capable of hanging a shelf myself' you will drill your poor thumb--it will bleed and scar

11) anytime your strictly crockpot wife says 'I'll make porkchops' ----object, she will seriously overcook the outside and undercook the middle, while she posses many talents, cooking is not one of them

12) you will slowly learn that you married a survivalist....and he married someone who can't use a knife properly

13) it does not help to have a hide a key for the car when the hide-a-key is in the console

14) it is even less helpful to curse and remind each other of the hide-a-key every time you wait for the locksmith, this will happen about every 2 months

15) people at your husband's work will refer to you guys as the 'wholesome twins' but at your wife's work you're known as 'bonnie and clyde'
