i noticed that both images i selected for this blog appear to have captured us sans clothing of any kind... so i am here disclaiming that notion. i AM wearing a towel and Gabe IS wearing boxers. :D Ahem. Anyway - it's been awhile since i entered the wonderful world of Blog so i thought i should pay my respects. i've done my hair recently and everyone was pretty impressed with the style. i'd never gone for the tongue in the light socket look and thought it was high time for a change. i sent this picture to Gabe while he was hard at work and i think he ended up laughing so hard that he broke a windshield and his boss made him pay for it. ;) He is having a grand old time at the Automotive Design where he makes crap-thirty an hour and seems to me to be RATHER unappreciated. But what do i know? i'm still at the Blind and Stutter Gallery - came close to quitting a few weeks back, then decided to recant since my "Freelance Writing" profession hasn't picked up yet. Married life is wonderful - we went Christmas Tree shopping last week but aren't allowed to put it up yet because the house is messy, Thanksgiving is this weekend and we have no ornaments to put on it. At least ONE of those stipulations will be done away with in a few days... so expect some tree pics up soon! We decided to be a little more creative this year since the family has gotten so large and
some of the younger ones apparently complained about having TOO MANY PRESENTS to open. We drew names last night and are eagerly pursuing the trail of gifting pandemonium. Gabriel decided to take up a new hobby which, although i was rather shocked and amused over at first, i am now very proud of... cross stitching. He has faced good natured adversity for this but little do his antagonists know he is laboring over their gifts...
Hmm...I have some pics like yours from our early years of marriage that I have tried desperately to hide. I hate to destroy them since that youthful body will never be again, and yet the prospect of someone else finding them makes me blush...So, if you guys outlast me in the game of LIFE, do not, I repeat DO NOT, open any sealed envelopes!
ReplyDeleteBy the way Gabe, I am proud to have a brother-in-law who is not afraid to go cross-eyed over cross-stitch...
ReplyDeleteim never sitting on your furniture again..
ReplyDeletehaha! Sissy - i now have sealedenvelopeaphobia. People just need to realize that under their threads, EVERYBODY'S NAKED. It's no secret. 8o The neighbors haven't complained yet about our indoor nudity... i think they're used to newlyweds.
ReplyDeleteLance - that's probably a good idea. You should also read my reply to your comment on Darren's blog. :)
Naked cross-stitcher? I'm glad you cleared that up. It could easily be mistaken for a Cheech & Chong activity.
ReplyDeleteWe missed you guys last weekend in Illinois. Well, not during the Pit game since your husband made it difficult for me to win the last time. Other than that we really wish you could have made the trip.
Glad you are enjoying being a newlywed. My envelope is actually a shoe-box sealed with duct tape. Each year at this time I get nervous that the kids will snoop my closet for Christmas gifts & open it. Yikes! I guess it's nothing therapy couldn't fix.
haha Yes... oh wait... i wasn't alive during the Cheech and Chong days... i had to review the You Tube files on that one. Good times. i was really sad we missed the big family get together yet AGAIN. Next time i'm quitting my job. But i'm GLAD everyone is telling me the locations of their blackmail photos!! There's hope for me in taking over the world yet! ;) And you need to stop being selfish and let other people read your blog. i can't even click on your name :( It says i'm not allowed to read your super secrets.
