Hot Dogs for Dinner?

This 'n' That

5 Jul

I felt like this woman today…

…and this one…the same poor woman obviously…

…and yet again…cause it seems like I said no that many times.

About what you may ask? Did Jeff want hot dogs for dinner? Was he riding a lawn mower in Costco? Was he going to let Eric run the chain saw? Did he wanna make out in the truck?

I am almost wishing these were the things he was asking for or doing…no, instead when I got up this morning and went outside this is what I saw…

Are you kidding me
…did the Three Stooges take over my husband's body in the middle of the night?  I thought that maybe I was wrong in the holiday and it was not the 4th of July, but April FOOL'S day instead.  I said "you are not doing that" and he said "I just need someone to hold the ladder".  I begged and pleaded, did I have to throw myself in front of the ladder? No way was he doing this, I told him I wanted to grow old with him.  I posted the picture on Facebook and everyone else thought he was nuts too.

My friend Emily came over and when she came in the house she said "he isn't really going to do that is he?" and I said "I don't know how to stop him", then she said "my brother in law has a bucket truck, and he lives up the road", so she called him, and then she gave Jeff the number, small world, Jeff even knows the guy…ha!

So the God's were smiling down on us today…

…ta!da!  Up he goes, happy, happy, joy, joy, SAFE, SAFE.

So much for 9 year light bulbs, I don't think we even got a year out of it.

I hope you had a great 4th of July and you had much more excitement than I did…ha!

Have an awesome Thursday and thanks for stopping in.

    Heck I would have a heart attack just imagining my hubby going up the ladder in the truck (that's NOT what pickup trucks are for, right?!) and makes me think of my friend who was at the top of a ladder like this that was even sitting on her living room floor and fell off….fractured her back ribs enough so they punctured one of her lungs – only one lung so she was lucky and smart enough to know something was not right and went to hospital ASAP. See if you talk with your spouse about stuff like this you can do anything lol. Besides, that bucket looks like way more fun and you can pretend you work for the telephone/electric company! Mary 🙂

    Do you think our husbands get up some mornings and wonder how they could give their wives a heart attack? Maybe they make bets to see which wife has the most extreme reaction. Of course, they'd never mention that, especially if they end up in the hospital with broken bones or worse. If it helps, know that you're not alone …

    I found this one weird. Only here that I knew hotdogs can be eaten as well during dinner. In our house, we always have these during morning.

Hi, my name is Diana Gibbs and I have been a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator since 1999. I never imagined getting up and talking to people, I am deaf (I wear hearing aids) so talking to strangers has never been a fun thing for me. But put a rubber stamp in my hand and I will talk to anyone.

I hope you can find inspiration and learn new and exciting things while you are here. If there is ever anything you want me to teach you, just let me know!
