this cold is just dragging on

and on and on

drips and drags

i took the duckies out
cleo is the smallest and she is having a hard time walking around out there on the ice
the other girls seem to manage it better then she does

i keep wanting to pick her up and carry her
but i am so afraid i will fall and squish her

she is a tiny tiny duckie with a very big personality


now this post will post in the morning
but really it's tonight feb, 10, 2009............
tomorrw is our 32nd wedding anniversary

i can't believe it

sometimes i can't believe i didn't kill him already
but the truth is
i love him dearly
he drives me nuts sometimes
but i love him dearly

32 years seems so long
i have lived with my husband longer then i lived with my family!
i was with them only 19 years

i once said to him
'are we going to grow old together?'

he said.........'i thought that is what we were doing....................aren't we?'
that i think was around our 20th anniversary

somehow we have made it through

i was so upset with him last week over something quite small
then i got so very sick saturday and have been really in bad shape with this cold

he did the housework
took the duckies out
cooked ( with some slight supervision from my woozy head)
and took care of me
and the chickens
and the duckies
and did the laundry
AND hung it on the line

i sorta wandered to bed and back to the computer

i suppose i am going to keep him
hahahaha

someone after all
has to no?

happy anniversary noogums..........

we ARE growing old together it would seem

(but he sure looks a hell of a lot better then i do)
