Girlfriend in the Garage Part Two

In case any of you were thinking I am in control of anything at my house or I am the boss of anything…

I’m not.

As evidenced by these photos of my daughters meeting my husband’s girlfriend.

The girlfriend in the garage has moved to the driveway. That’s Roger Leroy with her arms wrapped tightly around her dad going for her first ride.

And then headed down the road. With Wizzy on the back.

Because I’m the boss of everything here.

But, he forgot one thing about me and my blog…

Turnabout is fair play.

Just wanted to share the details of PhilBillPaul’s first motorcycle injury.

It was on his birthday and I have refrained from discussing it here.

Until he took my daughters for a ride this weekend.

I figured it was time.

Plus my friend Ann dared me. I think there was a money bribe implied.

First, the back story on the injury…

It has been 20+ years since he has needed a helmet.

He has never worn a full face helmet and he took an opportunity to try on helmets while he was waiting on an oil change at Wal-Mart by himself.

He had no idea that the helmet would feel so claustrophobic and was too tight for his big head.

Now, cut to the first injury…pun intended and you’ll get it in just a minute.

When he came home he was bleeding and we all asked what happened.

He had no idea what we were talking about and came into the bathroom to discover that he had a good-sized cut across his nose.

We are pretty sure that Wal-Mart has videotape of a 50 year-old man in the helmet aisle thrashing around trying to get a helmet off.

It was a pretty deep gash and we’re also pretty sure he left a trail of blood…

I cannot deny that the kids and I got hysterical re-enacting what we pictured happened at Wal-Mart.

For the next two weeks it was an awkward injury to hide.

Especially when we were in public together. So I would just get it out of the way upfront and say, “Go ahead, tell people what happened to your nose.”

I’m sure you all will be happy to know that the cut healed and he is not sporting a nose scar.

Poor Phil…
