Happy Anniversary Janet (and your DH!)

KellyTheChef

Janet...I wasn't on here much yesterday and missed this thread. Hope you had a fun anniversary night!!

You are so right, Rae!

It took me a little while to figure it out, but it's so true.

I try to never turn DH down when he wants me to ride along or hang out with him. He could go by himself very easily, but he's asked me to go with him.....hanging out together is all a part of the beauty of our friendship. One of his greatest needs is for my companionship.


On the same page - Sometimes, when he runs to the store to pick up a prescription, or sour cream that I forget, or hamburger buns, or whatever - he will buy a little bouquet of flowers from the Grocery store to bring home to me. I had a friend who actually found that offensive - she said it would tick her off if her husband did that, because it didn't take any effort to buy flowers at the grocery store - it wasn't thoughtful or romantic enough.

I think it's very thoughtful for him to think of me, and want to make me smile as he is out running everyday errands - but I guess that's just me.

Well, the night was fun...BOTH kids ended up in the gymnastics class and did really well for the first time.

Then we upgraded from McD's to County Kitchen which I haven't eaten at in my 9 years up here. Food was so-so but the kids ate free, got to color and the wait staff thought they were cute and well-behaved. DD drew us pictures for our anniversary.

We got home and I was tired so I told Steve I'd feed the dogs in the morning, they could wait. Well, instead of leaving the 50 lb. bag of dog food in the truck, he put it on the front porch.

Well, this morning he asked if I fed the dogs last night, I said, "No, I told you I was doing it in the morning." Well, the bears carried it off during the night so the dogs had no food this morning and have to wait until tonight. I'm going to have to get them a treat for that!

Janet...Oh no! The BEARS stole your dog food? Sorry to hear that...but it IS rather funny!

janetupnorth

Yeah, I guess we didn't provide a proper Packer defense to it.

DD thought it was funny because she weighs 50lbs. and that is what they carried off. So I told her I'd leave her on the porch tonight and see if they carry her off.

I just have to say that I'm glad I live where we don't have to worry about bears carrying off the pet food!

janetupnorth

But you can love 'em and hug 'em and squeeze 'em and call 'em George.

PChefPEI

Yeah, me too!! We just have to worry about skunks and racoons...and the odd coyote!


Yeah, but I can also do that with my two dogs and cat!!

ChefBeckyD

Not if the bear carries them off!
