National Spouses Day

Saturday, January 26, 2013

Today Saturday Jan 26 is National spouses day

What is the one annoying thing your spouse does that drives you crazy

For me, it is his selective hearing

    Hee hee, my husband has that same issue!

I guess, for now, it would be not understanding what I go through being the "Mommy" / boss of the house & or family!

    Well, mine is pretty awesome, but he can be annoying. He has selective hearing and at times he comes off as a know it all! He does know alot, but he can seem condescending.

    The fact mine seems to know it all, especially about the wants and needs of his grown children.

    Mine will be less than a foot from a paper box and leave something for me to throw away. But I can live with that because he's awesome at just about everything else. :)

    I am in the minority, I think. My partner doesn't annoy me. We're supercompatible. I'm so lucky.

    I can't complain about selective hearing because my husband has become hard of hearing - just don't know anymore how much is real!

My complaint is his lack of ability to find things or follow directions for finding things. This is from today:
"Where is the sugar canister?"
"On the shelves to the left of the fridge. No, not the shelves by the window. Go to the fridge. Look at the shelves to the left of it. No, look on your other left (as he checks out the right side). Now look at the shelf that is straight ahead. No, not the high top one. Don't tip your head up or down. Yes, correct. It is in the clear plastic container with the blue plastic lid. No, not the yellow tupperware. The container is clear. You can see the white sugar in it. Keep looking at that shelf."
I know it would be easier and faster to get up and get it - but my stubbornness kicks in and I refuse to do it!

Flowers

Friday, January 25, 2013

A friend sent this to email in one of those email chain letters and I loved it especially since my backdrop on SP is flowers


Concentrate on this Sentence 'To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.' When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. Concentrate on this sentence... 'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.' Something good will happen to you today; something that you have been waiting to hear. This is not a joke; someone will call.

There comes a point in your life when you realize:

Who matters,
Who never did,
Who won't anymore...
And who always will.
So, don't worry about people from your past,
there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.

The forecast is ice and sleet

Thursday, January 24, 2013

When the said they did not know how made it was going to get, I figured let me just run my errands today

So they are all done and tomorrow I plan to stay home somewhat warm , clean and knit

Hope those who are also affected by this stay safe. Do not venture out on the roads until you know they are clear again

    I also ran my errands yesterday. The freezing rain started around 8:30AM in Charlotte. So much for it not starting until after noon. It's a great day to cook a big pot of chili or soup. Stay warm!

    Take care and be careful. We had snow and ice this am and more coming tomorrow afternoon. With temps in the mid teens everything sticks everywhere immediately and then gets a glaze of ice over it. 95 had a HUGE back up this morning with multiple accidents in my area.

I want spring

Tuesday, January 22, 2013

Thanks to everyone for the comment on my afghan. It truly was a labor of love to do

Right now I am on my desktop. Seems that someone has gotten into my laptop and keeps connecting on it and then it crashes. So have a call into to friends who work security to assist with this

In the meantime, it is FREEZING here and I am trying to stay warm the best way I can without turning up the heat.

    I hope your Lap top will get tune up and will be no problem. I wish I can deliver to you my Florida warm weather. (*^^*) But according to Dr. on TV. cold temp will raise your metabolism up. So it might help you in some way... Maybe not! Stay warm.
