Re: A Little Night Gardening

**A*@aol.com**

Betty you're right - it is sad when spouses have to go through these kinds  
of maneuvers.  Fortunately, my husband and I don't have these issues -- I  
support his golf because it's so good for him and makes him happy and he  
supports my gardening for the same reasons.  But I, too, hear tales from  
those who have to sneak things into the house, garage, attic, or garden,  and I 
find it, well, demeaning - to both spouses. (This is assuming, of course,  
that you can afford these hobbies!  If my gardening or his golf were taking  
food from the table, that would be a totally different matter which would  
warrant some serious discussion!)

Sad to  say, every hobby has its household "detractors"!

My husband is into  radio controlled (RC) planes.  I cannot even begin to 
tell you the  very many devious methods guys have to go thru to get a new 
plane into the  house!  Or the things they go thru to save up enough cash 
to buy a  new one!

We've even had one friend stash his three new planes in our  basement for 
over 4 years, lovingly work on them whenever he could get  away. And fly 
them only if my husband brought them out to the  field.

And I agree with Doug, it's very sad to witness the fact that  spouses 
cannot be honest with each other when it comes to things they  enjoy!
