Yoo 428 - Excerpts From A Love Note

But first a picture of grilling vegetables. Because, Kyoo mom, in all our conversing yesterday, I forgot to tell you we finally pulled the stovetop grill out! The excitement!! We even got all rebellious and cooked it on high, despite the urgings of the instructions! I was getting impatient.

Consensus? It definitely worked better for the man at the fair. But I'll probably use it a few more times before forgetting about it in some corner cupboard. If anything, when I have grandkids, they'll get a kick out of it as a bath toy...or frisbee.

That would really make it worth it.

Now to important topics. The Greggerly is STILL moving schtuff into our house. It's been sitting in the trunk for well over a month now. And I decided I needed that there trunk for weekend shenanigans and so it came to be that a mandate was given:

"Get your stuff out of the trunk!"

Which really should have been more specific. More along the lines of:

"Empty the trunk of all your belongings and throw 75% of them away and find nice, neat places for the rest of the lot so as when I walk into the house I don't notice any of it."

Is that too much to ask?

Yes, because my our living room floor is now littered. A crossword puzzle book specifically for use while perched upon the porcelain throne. Piles of CDs, of which I am forbidden to name on the Internets. Pictures. Tons of class pictures. A knife sharpener. Old test scores. The list goes on.

And then I happened upon our first love note. Probably written a year after we started dating? We have thousands of texts but of love notes we have few. So I will cherish laugh at this one for some time.

I'll let you snack on the better lines...

"I was thinking whilst driving home from your house how I'm really glad you have 10 normal fingers and 10 normal toes."

"...probably one of those sitting-in-bed-before-falling-asleep conversations we'll have after bailing our kid out of jail..."

 "So, even if the gel clumps and dries in your hair weird and you have to awkwardly scratch it out during Sunday School, I can be glad you've got the important stuff."

A real keepsake!

And now I go to work.

Have a great day :-)
