To The Captain of The Chess Club

Dear Jeffrey,

Today you woke up just a little older.  Now we can go out and do the things grown ups do.  Because we are supposedly grownups.  I think we are succeeding in fooling the masses on that one.  Today we can play and dance and I may even learn chess, but only today.

Because today is your birthday.  And only on your birthday will I not argue about the rules of the game and the strategy.  I will try my hardest to play, and challenge you, the Chess Club President.

As a special gift to you from me, you have free reign to toot all you want.  In the bed, in the kitchen, anywhere at all.  I wont say a word.  I promise.  But only today.

And be prepared for the snog of your life when you get home from work.  It will be a good one.  And a long one.  And all this because you are the greatest thing that I have ever known.

You are my soul mate, and I am so glad I snagged you up before anyone else saw how perfectly wonderful you are.  I love you to the moon and back.  You have carved a place in my heart which will never be vacated again.

Happy Birthday Captain!

Love,

ME!

May I Take Your Order, Please?

I know that young people must have jobs. They have to start somewhere, but really, there has got to be some sort of intelligence test or guidelines before hiring people. Really. We bought some crown molding a while ago. I thought we would have enough. Turns out, as we were getting ready to put it up, we found we are about 5 ln feet short. Just 5. How annoying is that? So, I called Lowes and ended up speaking with a young man (I am guessing hoping he was young). The conversation amazed me. Me: "Hi do you carry any Trim-Tex crown molding?" Lowes: "What's that?" "A brand of crown molding. We are a couple of feet short." "Is that like a brand of baseboard?" "Well, yeah, sort of. Crown molding is decorative wood strip that goes along the ceiling." "Oh, okay. So what kind of tile do you need?" "Tile?" "To go along the ceiling, right?" "Uh, I don't need tile. I need crown molding."

I was getting a little worried. The baby had not changed in her weight or height for a month. Not since the 22 of October. My midwife was a little worried. She said if there wasn't a change soon, she would have to induce me. Did you know I wanted to go natural? Absolutely completely natural. I wanted to start on my own, and be completely under my own will power. Hearing that she would have to start me sent a cold fear through my body. Evidently, my baby possibly had something called IUGR ( intra uterine growth restriction) which could cause a myriad of problems, the worst being a still birth. A still birth is one of my biggest fears. So yesterday I went in to get checked, praying that my body had changed, that it had dilated on its own. If it had she wouldn't have to start me. At the appointment she gave me a choice. I could either have the baby yesterday, or I could have her on Monday. We decided to have her yesterday. So we decided my midwife would break my wate

Vegetarians at the Barbecue

We don't see our friends as often as we would like.  Something about us being the only ones married and with kids.  Whatever.  So any chance to have them all come play is a welcome one.  Since Jeffrey just had a birthday, we decided to have a barbecue tonight. We are having a barbecue and we don't eat meat.  Kind of ironic, isn't it?  When I thought about it, this video came to mind.
