We are just back from a wonderful vacation, schools out for the summer, stress is gone – everything should be wonderful in my life, right? But something Nick said yesterday has clouded everything. It was like being thrown in ice water – how could he be so cruel? What did this usually kind man say to me? Looking at the little table beside my recliner – with three or four empty cups sitting there he said “Now that you’re not teaching I think you can take care of your own empties”. Can you believe it? Good grief! What’s next – putting my own dishes in the dishwasher? Sweeping? Mopping? COOKING? Heavens, is laundry in my future??
This is no minor problem folks! Do you realize that if he expects me to actually do something around here it will cut into my 24/7 computer time. Maybe you all could explain to him that you need my mindless drivel to get through your day! Oh well, maybe not.
One other thing happened Saturday. Nick used the gift he gave me for our 20th anniversary – without my permission I might add – and broke it! Now this gift was a replacement of the wedding gift he gave me 26 years ago and if I recall correctly he broke that first one too. I know some of you may remember these truly romantic gifts he has given me throughout our marriage but if not scroll down.
Yes here you see a perfect likeness of the wedding gift he gave me and the replacement he gave me for our 20th wedding anniversary. I'm not kidding when I tell you he is a true romantic.
So do you think I can get over all this, the broken gift, the heartless way he spoke to me? I don’t know if I can forgive him or not but my guess would be that several spanking and some wild monkey sex would go a long way to getting me in a forgiving mood. I’ll let you know if he tries to get on my good side!
OMG! I think the earth just shifted...and it wasn't an earthquake.
ReplyDeleteI don't understand why men think we should do anything around the house. We have important things like blogs and facebook to attend too!
Love you...even if you have to clean up a little!
Hiya!
ReplyDeleteMy first time I think on your blog! Wow! That had me laughing and I really needed a laugh today, so thank you!
Unacceptable..he is going to have to get you a new one...and not spend computer time 24/7...what the heck are you talking about?
Sis now be nice to Nick. It's Fathers day. The two of you have a great gay today!
ReplyDeleteToo funny! What was he thinking? Honestly, these men! Pick up after yourself. How rude!
ReplyDeleteHappy Father's Day, Nick, you silly man!
Hugs,
Debbie :)
PK, several spankings and wild monkey sex should make an adequate
ReplyDeletefathers day present.
Picking up after yourself should cover you for birthday and Christmas.
I remember when my wife wanted new furniture and I bought her a woodworking kit, I still have the bruises. WEG Joking of course.
Love and warm hugs,
Paul.
Oh, make him pay by spanking you long and hard, that'll fix him! The sex is for that wheelbarrow--what was he thinking? Make him work double hard to make it up to you.
ReplyDeletecheers!

Housework is one of those unmentionables!! Don't think about it or you'll never get over it. Can you go with him next time he shops for you? Meow
ReplyDeleteI don't understand how men think either - I have the Maxine cartoon that says "I'm up and I made it to the keyboard - what more do you want from me?" I agree completely!
ReplyDeleteSaffron,
Glad you came by and had a laugh. I see you agree with me on time on the computer! I hope you'll come by often.
David,
You know I am always nice to Nick. Probably not as nice as he is to me - but nice!
Debbie,
Love to see you here - for one thing you are so wise! And you fully understand my situation!
Paul!
LOL! I could see Nick doing the same thing if I wanted new furniture. Mollie is working most of this week so we will find some way to celebrate.
Carly,
You're right giving me a good spanking will show him! As for the wheelbarrow he says the real gift is that he has used it all these years instead of making me.
Meow,
Yes the housework crack is best ignored - and I am really good at ignoring hints of that nature. I guess I can't fuss too much about the wheelborrow I do seem to remember giving him a beautiful lamp that I wanted for his birthday one year.
I think he must have had a moment of madness, what on earth was he thinking about. We need to have a word with him but I think you could just about forgive him if he gives the several spankings and some wild monkey sex LOL.

I so saw this coming.... Maybe he can put you and the empties into the wheel barrel and then cart you to the dishwasher! But I like the monkey thing too. Nick's vacation's over that's for sure!!
