If I took a before and after picture right now I would probably make that TV show. <BR/>My husband also has to have the TV so load, if you say anything to him, it's "WHAT DID YOU SAY?" I agree with everyone else, I just think it's a man thing.<BR/>Hugs,<BR/>BonnieCalamity Jane's Cottage, Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16465660663695604637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568318030915787600.post-936231926543412042008-07-21T21:24:00.000-05:002008-07-21T21:24:00.000-05:00I always clean my sewing room out, at least I try,...I always clean my sewing room out, at least I try, whenever I finish a project.

(I need it to hit around here more often than it does!) But don't you always feel so, um, satisfied once everything is organized? I do and always say I'll never let it get unorganized again~like that could ever happen! I don't have much of an 'organization' gene, so it can be a struggle for me.<BR/><BR/>As for the tv sound~I guess it's just a 'man' thing. I don't try to understand it, LOL!<BR/><BR/>R~MaryMary L.

Once I get it how I like it, that is how it stays. I will move the things long enough to clean, and back they go. As for the TV, I am not sure why that is - they do the same thing with the radio. I think it is just a "Man thing".

If after he falls asleep on the couch, someone sneaks in and turns it off,his eye flies open and he growls!

Who knows? My husband, father-in-law, brothers, brothers-in-law, son and grandson (ages 23-88) ALL participate in this. All I've been able to deduce is that they can't stand silence, something I crave! Go figure!
