Dishes to Drinks

Have you been enjoying the EX stories?

Lets continue that theme for now. 

(ALL PICS FROM INTERNET)

I think I might have written about this one once. But there we go again. 

One Christmas my mom got us dishes for our gift. They were pretty and I really liked them but mom got them on clearance. I joked when I opened the gift that I could not replace any that got broke so the other dishwasher in the house better be careful. 

With that being said, I was cooking dinner one evening, Glenn was working and did not get home till around 9 or 10. He usually warmed a plate up when he got in. So I made pork chops, peas and mac and cheese. Amber was out in the garage riding her little bike and I had bought her a horn. Once dinner was on the stove cooking I went to the garage to the work bench for a screw driver. There was a copy of the news paper out there and upon looking for the screw driver I lifted the paper. There under that paper was a plate.....BROKEN. It was broken in three perfect pieces. My light bulb went off.   

I took all three piece into the kitchen. Took care in washing all the pieces and when dinner was done I placed a pork chop on one piece and wrapped it in plastic wrap. Peas on another piece and mac and cheese on the other.  I then placed them all in the fridge. 
Glenn came in for dinner and I asked was he ready for dinner. He washed up and sat down at the table, I pulled out a piece of dinner and placed it on the table, then another then the last piece. Upon seeing the first piece his mouth dropped open and he said, "crap you found it". Come on now, you break a plate (it happens) but you hide it somewhere where I can find it? YEP....I found it. 

haha...

One day while watching tv I headed to the kitchen for a drink. I asked Glenn did he want one and he said he would take anything. Well upon asking again what he wanted I got the same answer. He got what I wanted him to have then...
Tea

Kool-aid

and
orange juice!

Don't mess with me, when I ask, give me an answer or you get whatever. 
Little did I realize that at the age of 60 I would add oranges to my tea!!

I have to say, living with me must have been a struggle
FUN!!

That's funny! Reminds me of our Dad's Dad. Our Dad and Mom were running around with his Mom and Dad years ago and they stopped at the Dairy Queen. The Dad's Mom asked his Dad what he wanted and he couldn't decide. He finely said just get me a big cone. That's what he got...no ice cream, just a big cone. He didn't think it was funny, he got out of the car and stomped it to pieces.

The Rest of Today

After my trip to town today,  visit with the doc, stopping  and picking up breakfast I  headed home.  I had dropped Dakota off at mom's for the day. He was going  to spend the day  playing with Klohe and Cheyenne. While he was hanging at mom's Lily and I chilled all day.  So much to do but I can't seem to get it in gear. Later....I had an apt for a hair cut. But I left out early to stop  at the  Mystic Heart. I picked up some healing stones there.  Entering the store I read this sign... haha Then while in there I saw this sign. From there I headed to see  Kelley, my hair stylist. This is what I was shooting for. Course, it will look different on  me due to hair color and  texture of hair.  I am good with it. I got to Heads Up a bit early  so Kelley still had a young boy she was working on and his dad after him. I had to snap a pic of Kelley making sure that I got

Well, what was I thinking? HAHA After laying on my couch in so much pain all summer, I knew moving closer to  Amber was the thing to do, The timing of finding my dream home was off. However, Two days of Open House and I have a contract. Selling as is, minor repairs.  Inspection to be done after  the work in the  den and BR is done. The process of getting here while just a couple of weeks of healing was a challenge. My daughter was a big  help weekend before  last. I just collect to many projects that I  never get around to and that has to stop. I have to say, last time  was easier, I had moved into my childhood home before I sold the other, so it was empty when sold. EASIER. I hate moving so close to Christmas but it is  what it is. Fall seems to have made it to us the past week. I am surprised, we were losing so many leaves due to no rain,  glad to have some color. In between packing, cleaning, repairs and life in general, I have  managed to do a few things. I taught a paint class an
