Really? Does this book title captivate you? Make you want to learn all about knots and waste your precious spare time tying them? If you answered no to these intriguing questions, you are not Idiot Husband. We made a trip to Barnes and Noble Sunday, and while I was checking out, he runs up all excited b/c he found this fascinating book that teaches you how to tie a useless amount of knots. And to make it more exciting-it was on the clearance rack! Wow, imagine that? What luck to have found this enthralling book, and on sale as a bonus. Idiot Husband was well on his way to a perfect Sunday. So as a basket of laundry lay at his feet to fold, a garage called his name for a clean up, a backyard anticipated a weeding, a shower head waited to be replaced, and trashcans expected to be placed at the curb…he sat. With this book. And two pieces of rope. Beaming, and occasionally urging me to see just how cool his latest accomplished knot was.
What was I doing during his retreat into the world of knots ? Wiping noses, cooking dinner. preparing next day lunches and bags, washing clothes, playing kitchen, reading the Boo Boo book, playing horsey (I, being the horsey), downloading pictures, updating laptop b/c too many pictures, singing ABC’s and Twinkle Twinkle, and occasionally pausing to see a cool knot. God love em.
