Can My Marriage Be Saved?

Well, I know you all thought my marriage was perfect, but now for the truth.

Dan went from pure flattery.....to nearly having a fat lip!

When you are half asleep, you don't always remember the entire sequence of events. but I can tell you with pretty good accuracy the most important parts of our half-asleep dialogue from last night.

A little background:

We have a king size bed, but our quilt isn't quite big enough for the bed.  Dan and I both sleep with a pillow under our knee, and also, I have long hair, so when I turn over, I lift my head rather high to adjust my hair.

So!  Last night, or more like, 4 o'clock this morning, I woke up, and got up for a few minutes, and then came back to bed.  Originally, I was facing Dan, but flipped over to get more comfy. 

Okay-along with not being allowed to turn up the wall heater in the family room(why YES, I DO live with the heat patrol!), I also live with constant harping when I turn over in bed, letting cold air in between the sheets, since I haven't mastered staying completely FLAT when I take my knee pillow from one side of the bed to the other.  This has been an issue for months.

Now back to my marital woes.....

In the wee hours of the morning, Dan and I had a brief conversation, or should I say, an exchange of words.  I turned over and took my knee pillow with me, and I actually heard Dan gasp from what he perceived as a gust of cold air between the sheets.  I don't remember if he muttered anything, but I think he did.

The usual UN-mouthy me said loudly and clearly, DEAL WITH IT!!!

So, UN-compassionate Dan grabbed all of the covers and YANKED them to his side of the bed.  He would have yanked them clean off of me, but I grabbed and held on, so I was still covered up a little bit.

I then muttered something about our stinking king size bed not being big enough, and Dan just corrected my statement by reminding me the quilt is what isn't big enough. 

I said, "You need to sleep with a sleeping bag."

He said, "I already sleep with a bag!"

So of course I tried to KICK him, but the bed was too big and he was too far over for me to reach.  So I turned over and tickled him, which he claims I did with my sharp nails.

Help, folks!  My marriage is in trouble!  I think I'm married to a compulsive liar-now I'm confused and I don't know if I look like I'm 20 or 75!!!

Is there still hope for us???  Because if there isn't, I'm going to start being who I want to be, and start rebelling right now, and am going to turn the wall heater up to 5!!!  And then when he says something to me about turning over in bed again, I'm going to take my 40 pound memory foam pillow and knock him out!  How's THAT for COLD???  ;P

Scaring The Kitty

My friend Melinda came over earlier, and her 5 year old son Ben was with her.  Ben said something about not scaring our kitty, Chloe.  Dan said that she needed scared.  Of course, I let Ben know how sharp her claws are and that she sometimes hurts, since I didn't want him to get himself all scratched up.

While I was talking to Ben, telling him all of the details of Chloe's self defenses, he came into the dining room where his mother and I were sitting, and he stood there digging in his coat.  I wondered what he was doing, while he quietly muttered something about scaring the kitty, still! 

So guess how he scared her......I'll give you a hint.....it was with something in his coat pocket....

He put his Dracula teeth in, made his meanest face, and set off to find the kitty to scare her!

LOL!!!!  Loved it!!!

Dan, My Sweetheart!

Well, I've shown you all my new 'do, and think I'm going to start wearing my hair this way.

Guess what Dan told me?

He said that my new hairdo makes me look 10 years younger, like I'm 20!!!!! 

He probably knew in all of my glorious ditziness that it would take me a minute to figure that one out, but by golly, I did! 

I just turned 40, and he just wanted brownie points for telling me I look 30!  And then with the new 'do, I look like I'm married to a man who robbed the cradle!

HA!  How's THAT for FLATTERY??? 

Maybe I'll one up him, showing him how young HE looks by buying him a new bicycle, seeing as how he is using Kota's in this picture!  ;P  Puppets and stuff make you look younger too, don't they?!?!

If you look at my link to my last picture, you'll see my explanation of Dan and the puppet-we actually have two, one beige, and one red.  :)  Thanks to Alicia, I found these adorable little guys on ebay, in case you ever want one!

Our Beauties Chloe and Diamond

So anyway!  This is a picture of Chloe-our beautiful kitten.  She just takes beautiful pictures, don't you think?  Her sister doesn't take near as good of a picture as her, but I'll include one just so she don't feel left out!  She's a little bigger(Chloe must have been the runt), and has filled out more-she's beautiful as well.

I LOVE this picture!

Peek-a-boo!

Diamond-she and Chloe look quite a bit alike!

 

New Pics Of Me, and Blah, Blah, Blah--Explained!

Well, here they are-updated pictures of me! 

My blog and website have pics of me from our old house, which we haven't lived there in almost a year.

I fixed my hair a little different today, and Dan liked it.  You know what he liked best about it?  Well, I have my front section separated from the back section, which I poofed.  What Dan likes best in the gray streak on the back poof, that is visible in this photo.  Go figure, eh?  Well, that must mean he's A-O-K with being married to an older woman!  That's a good thing!  :)

Along with my new background for my blog, I discovered how to add extra pages to the blog, which I added a chocolate bouquet page, with links to my different bouquets.  I'm not sure yet what other new pages to add to this, or if I'll just categorize what I put up.  Hmm.....

And did anyone else see my blah, blah, blah post?

Let me just say...

Ooooppsssss!!!!!

I was trying to figure out how to post on my new page, and that was a test post!  My sis-in-law wrote in my comments and asked me where the post went, which brought it to my attention, since I had no idea!  And I responded to her comment that it was a good thing I didn't write something like, Dan is a dunderhead!  Or, I can't wait to rob Walmart tomorrow! lol

Let that be a lesson to all...

Whatever you put on the internet.....

Doesn't go away!.....

Even if you hit the edit button, after you've posted it!

Someone is sure to find you out!

A New Look!

Well, did you think you all reached the wrong page???

Nope, ya didn't! 

After a year, I decided to go with something lighter, a little more "airy".

What do you think?  :)
