My husband is obsessed. For those who know him he has lots of obsessions. Football, Cori, really any thing sports related, OSU, and the list could go on and on. (He also has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder...but that is a different issue entirely.)
When he gets an idea he has to complete it. This isn't really a bad thing when you want a change around the house, but sometimes he gets a little overboard.
Right now his obsession is building Cori a wooden play tower/swing set. He has this idea in his mind and he will accomplish it.
He searched and searched the web, and read review after review, and price compared for weeks. He knew he could do it himself and make it sturdier, cheaper, and better than the things you could buy.
I saw him at home staring into space this week. I asked him what he was thinking about. The reply was always, "just trying to figure out the swing set."
Baseball sized hail stopped him this morning from getting everything he wanted to accomplished. But he can't wait to get it finished. He loves giving Cori everything he can to make her happy. She was telling one of our family members on the phone, "Daddy is going to build me a swingset."
My Husband Rocks because he won't rest until he is satisfied that he did a job that will make me, Cori, and himself proud.
And I will post pictures of the swingset when it is finished.
