got nothing to add here... I'm relagated to the office in the downstairs (or should I say "the dumping ground").  Two family rooms, and not a stitch of my stuff.  At best, I can only say, "Happy wife, happy life"......

Sounds like troubles brewing!

Anyway, I get to hang whatever I want....as long as the WITCH likes it!
Everything else gets sent to the shop....including me!
I tried again yesterday asking her to let me make a nice bow rack and hang it in the front room...she said no, go to the shop.
Its too cold in the winter and to hot in the summer to be hanging bows out there...she said sell them!    
So, I get to keep them just not hanging out. I'm okay with it I guess. She lets me get whatever I want, I just don't get to show them off like I want.
Its a give and take marriage.....I give, she takes!  
Been that way for almost 17yrs....we got a system!

My Man Room is the whole freakin' house. Sitting here, I can count about thirty bows. Two shoulder mounts. Three skulls. Loose antlers. About ten square feet of area taken up by arrows and shafting, another ten of junk, and a sheaf of river cane eight feet long. Three quarters of the sofa (rescued on its way to the dump twenty years ago) is taken up with a wooden Steal-Me rack that previously held guns, was put on my wall...oh. Five more bows. It was falling off the wall so I took it down, looked for a place to put it, and everything was taken except the sofa. This is in a space of about 200 square feet. And the feather burner is parked in front of the microwave.

So, when you come home after a hard day's chasin' bacon, grab a beer and meander back to the living room, and there is a place to sit...thank your lucky stars that you married that compulsive-obsessive-about-a-house-in-order normal-type female instead of me!

Now where did I set those broadheads down?

Kathy you sure do have a way with words    Thats funny  stuff right there  :D    :D    

Dang, Ya'll are lucky.  I'm still in the basement...not so bad though.  Doc

 

My man cave is down stairs and there it will stay says the wify!      Better then the shed I say...gotta compromise when married.

Doc, how do you get any work done with all that cool stuff crowding you?  I could help you clean it out a little.

I've got exactly the opposite problem of most.
The wife won't leave my things alone, constantly moving things from one area to another.

Started with mounts in every room of the house: then they were all moved to the hallway. Now they are endlessly shifting from hallway to office.

Now have a collection of indigenous bows from South America and Asia along with arrows and quivers in the Hallway. These walls also hold 7 deer mounts, a 28 year old autographed pic of Ben Lee, My 1988 PBS Regular acceptance letter, (with a Reg member patch, custom framed with authentic knapped flint arrow heads. FRAMED BY MY WIFE, to congratulate me on being accepted.) In addition to 3 African european mounts, a hat collection and 2 swing scythes.

The office has 1 recently done shoulder mount,( the one in avatar), a Wildebeast, Impala, Blesbok, Wild Boar, and Gator, all skulls. Plus a Snow Goose and various other waterfowl. And 1 Picture of Ernest Hemingway with a marlin he caught I believe in the Bahamas.
This is also where the bows are kept, however per her orders they must be kept in closet. (They are on racks), because she knows they are probably worth more than I claim to have paid for them. (Smart Women) And she doesn't think advertising there whereabouts is such a good idea! At present there are 6 on the wall. There is also another 27 in a climate controlled storage unit, along with other things of mine which she believes take up to much valuable space in "her" house. She never seems to notice when the bows in the office are changed out with ones from the storage. Although has has asked what the empty pvc tubes in storage are for, and why they seem to multiply.
So I guess I can't complain, She gets the whole house and I get what she designates to me as she sees fit. I can live with that, even if things are constantly moved around.  

Love your cave Doc.

Killie you are a hoot girl. You have such a way with words. I love your posts.
