    0AB6B793-F95C-4BDB-94FB-2582A4A0199E.jpeg A week ago, I mentioned to the mrs. that a recliner in the fireplace room would be nice. We burn in it Friday to Sunday.

    She went to town Saturday to pick up a table. I had my girl helpers moving a holsen haus to the woodshed, and sent one to the house to help move the table.

    I got inside after dark, and found she got me some new equipment! I gave it a test flight with a glass of Bulleit rye.

    Such is the life of a trophy husband.

    Yep I am stealing that one too. As you guys know, I am a true House-Husband (stay home father, taking care of the kids, ensuring Firewood Hoarders Club gets filled with replies and content), but Trophy-Husband sounds better.

    Last night Katie came home from work at the bank and I asked her if she wanted the recliner, "Nah, I will get that soon enough."

    Few people know this, but this how is a Tiny House, so Katie and I do not have a bedroom. I sleep on the couch and she sleeps on the recliner.

    I asked by wife to say that next time she stopped by the office. I knew she was there by all the groans coming from the front.

    Recliners come in very handy during the winter months! I'm sure you'll make good use of it. But be careful you don't end up like Jack Straw
