Tidy Husband Returns
Like the Batman series, but with more crayons and dog hair.
So. Here we are. Back again.
Once up a time in the land far far away and before the child took over the house 1 it was clean..or tidy at least. And back then I had time to dabble from time to time with a blog called…wait for it….Tidy Husband.
The blog is long gone but believe it or not it had a very small audience that was happy to read it. This email newsletter/blog whatever you want to call it is a continuation of that.
Except, now there’s an entire other person in the house and a lot more mess.
Let me introduce you to the new person:
She’s four. She likes to blow the seeds off dandelions. 2
Since I last wrote, a lot of water3 has gone under the bridge and we're up a pet too: Not my smartest moment getting this beast but more on that in a later post.
As you can imagine with these new developments there’s a story or two to tell and that’s what I plan on doing here - tell stories. Why?4 Because it’s fun. More fun than I care to let on actually.
What to Expect
I have no idea. I plan on writing here. That’s it. Topics will probably be around the two little disasters photographed above more than likely.
This is a little different as it’s newsletter where you can subscribe and then you get updates right into your inbox. You know how you get the Christmas letter from your aunt? This is kind of like that, but with some more potty talk and frequency.
Speaking of year round, as you can imagine not only do I have to deal with these 2 but then I spend an hour 5 or so writing this drivel and all this takes effort. But you know what doesn't take any effort? For you to subscribe for a couple bucks a month.:
The folks at substack seem to think that if I work hard and write a lot that over time I could get 1000 paid subscribers at five bucks a month which equals a full time income. I'm sure for some established writers that's the case. But for a stressed out Dad with too much to do and too little time we're looking at making enough money for an ice cream cone.
Regardless, hit the subscribe button and then you’ll be able to follow along in the never ending disaster that is our life.
Best, Jim and Co.
