My property was an citrus field, we have ramped burms and full irrigation. The yards flood 2 feet high. What's funny?

Grass, believe it or not. And orange, lemon and lime trees. This is a harsh country with no rain. Got to water it. Most have rocks for yards. I grew up in the Midwest and won't have that.

Is flood your only option? It's wildly inefficient. I can't even imagine how much evaporation loss you have. |

I have sprinklers but the weather here requires a flood twice a month for the fruit to thrive. Strange, I know. It happens at night, usually 1 in the morning to avoid evap loss. When I first moved here it freaked me out. The cactus don't care but the trees do. Different in the winter, only once a month.

The city assigns the times, costs me around$90 a month. I have 3/4 acre of property. Strange to have to pay for what nature can give but it's neat to have your own citrus. I'm sure you have much more land. nothing but respect for ag people, grew up with them.

Im a pretty big gamer. I always have been for the entire time my wife has known me, before we were ever dating.
Well, as marriage goes and the kids come along, the opportunity to buy games becomes very few and far between. I usually research the hell out of the game Im going to buy, and make sure it has a ton of content so that I can have this thing to occupy me for several months. Well this is about the time that Skyrim was being released, 11/11/11 was its release date. My daughter's birthday is on 11/13, so I knew I had to have her taken care of first before Skyrim was even coming into the picture. Sp for the entire month of October, I ratholed money away each week, like 10 bucks or so. Nothing big, you know? We get our daughter's presents taken care of far beforehand, and Im thinking Im good to go for Skyrim. I should only need 20 bucks or so on the day it comes out. Well we get into a jam because the wife doesn't realize that E means empty on the gas tank. She runs out of gas, and had used the last of our money that week trying to get ahead of other bills. So naturally, the only money available is my Skyrim stash, which I don't hesitate for a second to use to get the car running again. She asks where the money came from and I explain, and it becomes this huge ordeal about how irresponsible I am that I would hide money for a stupid videogame. At this point Im thinking it may have been better to leave her stranded. So anyway, the time rolls around and Skyrim is released, and Im wanting to get my money I had put back for this game back so that I can go get it. This sparks the whole argument over again about bills and responsibility and all this other shit. So I relent. I just want her to shut up at this point, so I say fine, I can wait. THAT VERY F***ING NIGHT. She walks in with my sister in law's three kids, my three kids, and her mother, and they are all carrying McDonald's bags. I raise an eyebrow at all this crap being brought in, and I begin thinking to myself "where did all this shit come from?" You guessed it. My wife took my money for my game and used it on a trip to McDonalds for her mother, and her sister's kids, while getting herself and my kids' dinner there as well "because she didn't feel up to cooking." Sweet Jesus, I thought I would have an aneurism right there. I calmly got up, looked her dead in the face, and demanded the checkbook. From the look of sheer fury on my face, Im guessing she knew not to open her mouth. I went down to GS for the midnight release, and I bought my goddamn game. There were some heated words later, after the kids were all back where they belonged and mine were in bed, I don't remember them all but I do remember telling her she better never, ever, try to lecture me on being irresponsible with money after turning around and spending fifty bucks at goddamn Mcdonalds.

Welllll,
Our fights usually start about my wife complaining about something for the 37th time. And in some form or fashion revolves around money. Our last fight started out with her the week before her period getting pissed and moody because she had applied for a promotion at her work, and hadn't gotten a response. After 4 days of listening to that, I had enough. So I started boiling over and told her to stop crying all the damn time about things she cant control, and uh, well, I shouldn't of done that. because then shit that I didn't even know she was mad about started coming out. So that was an all night bitch fest. my wife and I are very good about putting aside our differences when we are with our son who will be two next Saturday, but damn, we must of bitched at each other about the house not being clean enough, we have a couple cats, and they get hair everywhere, to how my wife feels she never gets enough alone time. I slept on the couch for three nights because of how pissed we were at each other.
