hairbrained schemes: How Do I Love Thee?

July 17, 2007

How Do I Love Thee?

Let me count (10) ways...

1. You hooked up that wireless interweb thingie so I can sit on my butt in one room and steal pictures from the computer downstairs and print them in another room.

All. Without. Getting. Up.

And I know you know how much I like not having to get up to do stuff.

2. You have acquired a taste for things like avocado and feta cheese through sheer will. I know this may be due to the fact that I will serve them anyway because I like them, but I appreciate the fact that I don't have to deal with two Lucas' (Luci?) at dinnertime.

3. You painted our whole house by yourself. I'm going to choose to believe it's partly because you know how much I loathe to paint and not only because you think I'm a totally inept painter. Plus you only got mad at me a little when I changed paint colours 8 times throughout this house. (PS Yes, the three bedroom colours are different. It is a subtle difference.)

4. You can sew. And aren't embarrassed to admit it.

5. You build really cool stuff. And fast.

6. These guys

(Sometimes this one actually counts against you. Like when younger boy does things like drop his gameboy in the toilet while using the toilet even though his mom had thought that could be a distinct possibility that playing/peeing at the same time would seem like a good idea to younger boy and made the "no-electronics-in-the-bathroom rule". Or when older boy follows me around, joke book in hand reading non-stop and prefacing each joke with "moooom" to make sure I'm rapt with interest. But mostly they're on the pro side)

7. You'll drive to DQ just to get me a blizzard at 9:30 at night (even though I have been complaining the week before about how fat I feel and how I'm totally going to start my diet right now and that's that.)

8. Even though you do all the "outside stuff" you still help me with the vacuuming because you know how much I hate to vacuum.

9. You read my blog and crack yourself up leaving comments under your clever pseudonym. (You are not as funny as you think you are Gorgeous George).

10. Synchronicity, baby. Synchronicity.

Happy Anniversary, GG. Love you!

See? There you go thinking you're funny again.

You are about as funny as you are good at math.

Smooches.

Happy Anniversary!! I only know you guys through your blog and I like what I read! You sound like a fun family - that says alot for the two in charge (you two, not the boys, although it may seem like that). Enjoy your day.

Awww, so sweet! Happy Anniversary you two. It seems like only yesterday that Jason was just a kid, mooning the neighbours...oh wait, he was in his 20s when that happened, wasn't he?

Nice house, by the way. Greg can't wait to see the media room. Will you make him "step up Greg, waaaaay up"!
