We are reveling in life in general but the actual reference will go left unexplained and bring a smile to my Mudgie's face...Now is time to bring you our favorite Mudgie Talk Radio moment from the past week...
Our host: "Ok two people isn't going to be enough. We're going to need four people and it's going to go to dinnertime probably."
Me: "Oh thank goodness we'll have time for desert."
Our host: "OK, you go there and there and there... Let's take the ropes and tie it all up."
Me: "I'm in, you keep talking about ropes but you haven't tied anything up in my presence"....
Our host rolls over and grumbles as he goes back to a peaceful sleep... Me thinks it was probably a safer thing for him to do...
As previously stated on Facebook... Bill has been a whirling dervish of "honey do" completion. In two days he helped me pack away my Christmas trees... which led to reorganizing the garage... which led to my garage being swept and two bins of garbage being taken out. He then installed pull racks in my kitchen island for the pots and pans... In between doing these things, he worked on our prohibition coffee bar, walked the dogs, washed dishes and insured the world was safe by handing me coffee every morning.
The kids love him. The animals follow him everywhere. My household is almost a well oiled and drama free environment of love and laughter when he's here. He fits in well... My son asked if he lives here now and wasn't being sarcastic or disapproving when he asked... In fact, my son was quite impressed with the kitchen island. Do you know how hard it is to impress a teenager? Bill is making points with everyone...
Instead of letting him work around the house for the last few hours he was in Atlanta yesterday I took him down to Cherie's house to see the latest batch of kittens... (No the picture to the right isn't sideways... the kitty was)... anyway... anyone that knows him knows that a pile of baby furry beasties is equivalent to Mudgie heaven. Who can resist three week old kittens?... and who can call Bill a curmudgeon when they watch him snuggle up with these wee beasties... he melts and gets all gooey. It's a beautiful thing to witness.
Cherie told him that he's welcome to play with her pussy anytime he wants... to which I responded "Only if I get to watch"... he went running out of her house with a repressed grin and a shake of his head... Cherie and I are a bit incorrigible together... and he's not quite sure how to handle it... not that he minds trying....
So it's back to work for both of us now. I've had an amazing vacation month. My heart hurts with his absence already but as we keep telling each other... even if he was living here the nature of our jobs means we'll be gone a few days a week anyway.... got to find our groove... but soon he needs to start checking items off on his action list to make going "home" mean coming home to me.
Yes, I think of you all the time my love... which is why I bought the mug for the coffee bar.... right era and very appropriate for us.
