Gotta love the Hubs!
« on: January 04, 2009, 06:35:13 am »
Anyone catching a glimpse of the news probably knows Spokane has shattered all records concerning snowfall this year.

We are faring well up on our mountain thanks to neighbors with heavy equipment, but I looked out our window the other day and saw a doe and her baby struggling just to walk through the snow. I immediately thought how in the world are they going to reach any food source? The snow levels are impossible to dig through.

I spent all morning trying to talk myself out of feeding them. Once we start it will be our obligation to continue through the whole season. Hubs will never go for it. I can't save all the deer. Circle of life. Blah blah blah. I even solicited help from a certain Yellow Dog Mom who was NO HELP AT ALL!

I spent the rest of the afternoon thinking of ways to convince hubs we should feed them. Conjured up tears, practiced batting seductive eyes, talked in stern voice to just demand we will do this.

I hear his truck pull up and I'm all set. I'm waiting - waiting - he's not coming in. Finally go out to see what's taking him. I have an important announcement after  all.

He looks up and says, "I'll be in in a moment. I want to unload this 150lbs of deer feed."

 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Seems he had seen a couple of deer flat out on their stomachs on a bank trying to dig through some snow to reach a little branch sticking out on his way home from work. He made a bee-line to the feed store. :D

As my subject states, gotta love the hubs. :-* :-*

I'll have to remember this next time I'm picking up his man panties (he hates it when I call them man panties :D)from the floor in front of the dirty clothes hamper. ;)

Now Miss Lizzy ~ you know very well that *we* are two of a animal loving kind ~ and you also knew very well that I would say *feed the deer, starve the humans*

Fellow BPOs ~ Elizabeth was as excited as a little kid on Christmas when Jack came home with the deer food. She was literally bubbling with happiness.

..and as an FYI.."this prince named Hubby Jack" is the nicest, funniest, most thoughtful, wonderful husband and he treats Elizabeth like a queen ~ just as he should ~ and he is handsome on top of all those other qualities ~ think :-* Jimmy Buffet  :-*


I knew you would tell me to feed the deer.  ;)

Love you Miss Patty :-*

Awww!!!!   That makes me tear up!!!!!  Talk about a deep-to-the-core good man!  Sound like a wonderful match!

Plus, I'm not even 30 yet (I turn 30 in March and will attest to STILL being in my 20's....well, probably for a couple more years ;D), and I have a huge crush on Jimmy Buffet.  I think my hubby will look like him at some point in life, and can't wait till we just retire in some beachside town and chill!

Oooh, I love the 'manties' I'll have to try that one on for size. Well, not literally. Here's a picture of my Jimmy Buffet. Or should I say Jamaican Jack. :D

I hope Jack doesn't mind all the  :-* publicity! :-* and *husband of the year* should get some special deer feed. ;)
 
The most ironic thing about Mr Jimmy Jack Buffet Dayley..is that I had him pegged the *Jimmy Buffet* type before I ever saw a picture of the man. I heard Jack talk on a video ~ and just intuition ~ for some reason the JB image just fit.

Elizabeth & I truly believe we were/are sisters in a previous life. BPOs would be astounded by the  :o similarities :o it's rather unnerving at times. ;)  :D  ;D

I'm a huge Buffet Fan 8) have been since the 70's (1970s, not 1870s)

 :-* Love you too Lizzy ~ but you know that :-*
