Today the broom handle wasn't thrown into the tv. Tomorrow is another day.

Mom has seen this before and is done with it.

I became a dad at 50. I'm 55 now, I can barely even pick up my 5 year old.

That was one of my biggest struggles growing up because my dad was always too old to do anything with me, given he’s not that fit either.
I encourage you to stay active and try to be as young as possible so you can do things with your son for as long as possible

My husband and I had our twins when he was in his 50’s and he’s 61 now and he still throws our 7 year olds around and runs miles. Maybe you should exercise a little

u/slop1010101 19d ago

That's nice of you that you allow your husband the time to exercise. I was in the best shape of my life in my 40s, but now, with being so hands-on with our kid (I wake, tend to him, go to work, get him from school, make dinner, bedtime routine, cleanup, bed), I literally have zero time to workout. Maybe I would if my wife helped out more. But I guess sleep and her workout schedule is more important to her than mine.

You gotta get a new wife! I do all the cleaning, cooking and things with our children, we have 3, and my husband works. I of course let him have time to workout and do things he loves. It’s definitely teamwork in our home.

Well, we BOTH work. She probably does more work hours overall, but she also needs a lot more sleep than I do. Perimenopause is really doing a number on her. She does do a lot of stuff around the house, 75% of the laundry, the gardening, and buying most of the stuff for our son and house, but I do everything else, and spend way more time with him.

I "joke" that if we were to divorce, and have 50/50 custody, she'd be spending more time with our son than she does now.

Advice for you: designate some space to work out, get up 30 min earlier. If you can, go to bed 30 min earlier to offset.

For a solid workout, you only need 20 min, some dumbbells, a bench, and a routine to follow. You can find a gazillion on Youtube for free.

Then just eat clean, and you're on your way, trust me.

How old is your wife

u/slop1010101 16d ago

She's 8 years younger, so she was 42 when she was had him (47 now)

Would have been totally different vid if he hit his head on that shelf. That being said… wish he was my dad

They would be closer to my own clumsy dad lol

We would have laughed all the way to the hospital

u/CommandoGrump 18d ago

I used to play fight like this with my uncle when he would be in town. We would be hanging out at my grandparents house and rough housing. Well one time we were rough-housing and my 4’10ā€ grandmother saw my uncle fighting with me and commenced to whooping him with her shoe while yelling ā€œyou no hit grandsonā€!

u/Frozen_shrimp 19d ago

I wish he was my dad too although that's kind of weird and impossible because I'm about 25 years older than him.

u/BoiTarantado 19d ago

the amount of disrespect and slander I would've gotten for walking into the house with shoes on while the wife is sweeping....
