Have I mentioned...

Have I mentioned..
That I dislike Mondays? Especially Mondays with miserable weather, like rain. It has been raining here since last Thursday. Five days of rain..Not only that.. two of those days it rained "Cats and Dogs"..well not really but you get the picture. Chance is wet and muddy, but I tell him he smells great anyway..not too many people appreciate that wet doggy smell..except maybe me. The muddy part is really sand and once dried, falls off and makes you long for the beach.

Have I mentioned...
That Mondays is the clear off the bulletin board day? I hate it so much that I missed last week. That board was full! I hog tied Far Guy to a chair, gagged him and made him open mail for an hour. He opened envelopes with a very scary letter opener, flung the recycled paper in one pile, flung the to be shredded in another pile, and stuffed envelopes for me, that was the reason for the gag..I know what the outgo is, he would just like for me to handle it and blindfold him. Investments have plummeted, being the end of a quarter there were multiple reports to sort through. I thought seriously about blindfolding him about then, but I didn't want to clean up the mess he would have made of himself with that really scary knifey looking letter opener he was using. I keep telling him that he has to have some idea, how things are done, if I croak first..he should have some clue. I guess I will have to write it all down, make him a "In case my wife dies first folder" one with very explicit instructions, he told me with his deer stuck in the headlights look ( I really should have used the blindfold) " Don't worry, I will figure it all out sweetheart" I am not so sure, I am wondering if I should also include "Dating Instructions" in his folder. Probably wouldn't hurt:)

Oh my, I have been teaching Gar some getting through life without a wife tricks too, maybe I should just start a folder. If I hide it in plain site in the fridge, do you think he would discover it after I am gone? Or at least the replacement would.....LOL.

You are too funny girl!

In case my wife dies first folder! Very Clever! I think I will have a shoe box with that written on it and inside I will place a noose. He'd rather die than to sort things out!

Now..just how tight was the hog tie? lol..
I don't know about those dating instructions, either. I would leave those off too.
Have a great day.

Too funny! My mom and I keep doing similar things to each, in case one goes first. :(

When I married Gary I let him, begged him to take care of the bill paying. I was the one to pay the bills in my first marriage and stuggled paying bills during my single years. I was so happy to turn it over....however I now need the folder.
ps-- he's doing really well since his surgery. thank you for asking.

Too funny! Loved this post!

And thanks so much for supporting me this week during Blog Action Day against poverty. I like the idea of having different quotes - and, if that's OK, may well pinch the idea from you...

haha not blindfolding someone with a letter opener was probably a wise choice. I envy your foresight!
