Why is it little boys feel that the grass on the other side of the yard always needs watering? And why do they feel it is their responsibility to personally douse it, and douse it good. Even if there is a clean and sanitized bathroom only 50 feet away from where this enticing dry grass is struggling to grow. Young boy to the rescue! Instant front yard spectacle!

Great podcast! Funny and sweet all at the same time. ( although I was greatly surprised about her husband! Quite possibly the neighbors are entertained by his antics. )This author/writer has managed to teach something meaningful in a humorous way.
Thanks Colleen. We are the interesting neighbors! 🙂
Yes, it seems as though men will always find ways to be able to relieve themselves outside.
I now live in Mississippi, and at parties, or any gathering for that matter, the men just go around a corner and relieve. Two pickups can stop in the middle of the road and chat. If one driver (or passenger) have to go, they keep talking and hide their front parts around the side of the pickup. Even though they are flashing the whole road. Or if a group of us are going somewhere and there is a nice bridge, like clock work, all the men jump out and go off the bridge!
When I have to go too, it makes me wish God had built me with a convenient way to do the same!! Lol
LOL Bliss. You had me laughing so hard! A front porch, a bridge, what’s the difference? LOL
As the author’s husband, I am very conscious of the environment. I recall the slogan from environmentalists years ago that was aimed at saving water, “If it’s yellow, let it mellow. But if it’s brown, flush it down.”
As someone who wants to encourage you to save water, please consider my new slogan: “You too can be an environmental pro, just step outside and make the green grass grow.”
A challenge to you other budding environmentalists (who might also happen to be female), how are you going to save water and make the green grass grow? LOL
Who knows! You could start a whole new “movement.” LOL Or at least a green bumper sticker. LOL
Well, I’m not suggesting anyone create a big backyard movement. But am encouraging the environmentally conscious to use discretion through the cover of darkness or perhaps with a nice backyard privacy hedge. Or, maybe if you’re in Bliss’ neighborhood, the need for privacy might not be a huge consideration.
Anyone know someone who makes bumper stickers? LOL
I am getting up so I can fall down laughing nice podcast
This was great! I’ve listened to lots of podcasts, and yours has got to place at the top of the list. I’ll enjoy listening to these anytime I need a laugh!
Thanks Catherine. Glad you enjoyed the podcast!
Hahaha. Yep. Married my husband and inherited a brother in law too. Went out to join them in the snow one day and discovered they had “written” their names in the snow. Full grown men. It’s a magical experience I don’t understand, but I love that boys are boys! Thanks for sharing!
Oh yes, boys/men and snow! Forgot about that. LOL Beware of the yellow snow!
Hi, Theresa! This is a new podcast to me, so I’ll definitely be checking it out — and as a mum of four boys, it sounds as if I’ll really like this episode!
Hi Michele. Four boys? Yes this is a good episode to start with. 🙂
You shouldn’t need to water any outside plants, lol!
For sure. Droughts don’t slow us down. LOL
It was interesting. And the content was good. I’m 11.
Thanks for listening and laving a comment, Roy. Love that you are 11. I know of several children your age who listen.
