I Just Can't Win...


2010 has been off to a stressful start at our house, so I am attempting to pamper Big Fireman a bit...


I made him breakfast in bed, and as I carried the tray into our room, he rolled over, looked at me suspiciously, and asked,
"What is all this?"
"Nothing, just trying to be nice to you, that's all..."
"Do you want something?"
"No, I'm really just trying to be nice to you..."
"Kate, I thought we went over this, you're not nice!!!"

Sigh... I think I have my work cut out for me.  Have a wonderful week!

    Those guys always thinking we have ulterior motives! I don't know you well yet as I have just started following your blog but I would think you were awfully nice to have brought breakfast in bed :)

    I have those same square pink plates...

    How touching and yummy, all at the same time. BTW, we're never too old to change. I have resolved after reading your blog that I need to be more fun. Let's do it!

    Bwahahaha! See what you get for being nice? I'd probably get the same response and when he found out I was just trying to be nice, he'd expect me to be nice every weekend!

    Thank you for sharing over at my place, you had me in tears!

    Love and hugs,
    Karyn

    Hi Kate,
    Thanks for coming to visit me! I just love when you and Libbie come and visit!!
    You're too funny. I guess your hubby's gonna regret his words to you next weekend when he has to get out of bed and come downstairs to have breakfast. Hmmm ...maybe there won't even be any:( After all, he DID say you weren't even nice:) HaHa!
    That's what he gets for being a skeptic!
    As far as the gold sofas of Libbie's go, maybe she can do SOMETHING with them. If not they'll just have to move into a palace. That sounds like her, Huh?????
    Have a great day and keep being nice, even if the skeptics may not think so!!!
    :)
    XoXo

    What a wonderful husband and wife exchange! What you should do now is doing something even bigger and grander, just to keep him going. LOL

    Hi Kate ... that is so cute ... it sounds like you guys have a great sense of humor .. I always tell my kids to be sure your mate makes you laugh ... that should always be on the top of the list... and my favorite is a 'dry sense of humor' ... it sounds like your hubby is witty and cute.
    One more thing .. I'd love breakfast in bed brought to me by my husband ..but then I'd have to jump out of bed to go clean the kitchen ...lol
    Actually my hubby cooks all of our meals .. yep ..I'm lucky. :^)
    Hugz ...Betty
