Who Is She Talking About?

I went to a follow up appointment the other day at my dentist's office. The hygienist, referring to my husband and me said: "You and your husband are such a sweet little couple."

Whaaat? She might as well have said: "Not bad for an old couple." I am learning the lingo here. Yikes.

Many people have referred to my husband as sweet. I think he is a sweetie too. And while I have been known to occasionally do something sweet, that is not a word generally descriptive of me. And not a word I generally want associated with me. Sassy, yes!

At least she didn't say "Bless your heart." I would have known I was an old dufus then!

Larry Kudlow Please Go Home

DH watches CNBC until I could pull his hair out - that is if he had any hair.

The most obnoxious show is Larry Kudlow. Rude and arrogant as host, talks over his guests, and if they don't agree with him, he gets louder.

I'd rather watch my nice HGTV programs, like Designed to Sell, in which a real estate agent comes in and picks apart your house, which you want to sell, and tells you everything you are doing wrong. Then the nice designer comes in and tells you which three rooms they will re-do for you. I figure the designers have to be extra nice after dealing with the nasty realtors. Or House Hunters - virtual reality house hunting.

I am thankful our real estate agents were more tactful.

Older daughter has honored me with an award! Older daughter's Blog can be found at Que Sera, Sera. This is the daughter who has encouraged me to blog. It's been quite an exercise.

I'd like to pass it on to younger daughter who when she gets a chance writes fabulously funny blogs about her life. I wish she would recycle some of them. Her site is gathering.dust.

I don't read that many blogs, but one I find really helpful is The Practical Archivist. I find it very helpful. So I'd like to present the Fabulosity award to TPA also!

Here are the rules:

1. You have to pass it on to 5 other fabulous blogs in a post.
2. You have to list 5 of your fabulous addictions in the post.
3. You must copy and paste the rules and the instructions below in the post.

Instructions: On your post of receiving this award, make sure you include the person that gave you the award and link it back to them. When you post your five winners, make sure you link them as well. To add the award to your post, simply right-click, save image, then “add image” it in your post as a picture so your winners can save it as well. To add it to your sidebar, add the “picture” widget. Also, don’t forget to let your winners know they won an award from you by emailing them or leaving a comment on their blog.

I am not entirely sure that those instructions are entirely useful for all blog services, but oh well.

And you can see that I am awarding only two. One blog I would award is Unmitigated, but she has it already. You can hop to her blog which is listed to the right of this blog.

The Monsters in the Closet

DH is a great guy and I really, really love him. He does have this irritating habit of leaving the closet door open. Even though I tell him he'll let the monsters out.

So today, he left the closet open while we were gone all day. I am sure he let the monsters out.

Sigh.
