You know you have sinus issues when...

... your husband calls your niece to wish her a Happy Valentine's Day and the following coversation occurs:

Elisa: Is Auntie Hope there?

Matt: Yeah, but she's still sleeping. She doesn't feel very good.

Elisa: What? Is it her nose again??

Matt: Yes, it is...

Or maybe it's a lesson to not show a 5 year old what a Neti Pot can do... cause she'll never forget it!

Ha! Hope you enjoyed our Valentine's humor!

Happiness

"Happiness, not in another place but this place...not for another hour, but this hour."

Walt Whitman

Thought for the Day

"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."

- Dr. Adrian Rogers, 1931 – 2005

How bout them apples?

From the wall of a pharmacy I visited in Ft. Lauderdale today... I believe it was posted 3 times. They wanted to make sure it was clear.

The little thoughts

Maria (Matt's sister) and Elisa (our niece - who just turned 5) came to visit over the long weekend this past weekend. They were supposed to head back to Boston at the same time I was heading down to Ft. Lauderdale on Monday. However, my flight left as scheduled (for the most part) and, well... theirs didn't. They ended up going back to spend one more night with Uncle Matt!

I just spoke my sweet goodnights with my husband and he had the following conversation to tell me about from this morning:

Elisa: Uncle Matt, I'm sorry that I have to leave you today and you're going to be all by yourself.

Uncle Matt: It's ok. And I won't be all by myself. Dixie will be here with me and then Auntie Hope is coming home on Thursday.

Elisa: Well, I'm sorry that you, Auntie Hope and Dixie will be here all by yourselves when I leave.

Target Conversations

At Target today....

H - "Ok, I think that's all I need. You need anything else?"
M - "Yeah, I need some shampoo."
- thinking -
"Why do they call it shampoo?"
H - "Well, I don't know, hun."
M - "Poo??"

He does make a good point...

I love country music...

You want to know why? Cause you just can't help but smile when you hear a song with lyrics like:

'Cause there ain't nothin' like the sound of a cooler slushin' on the bed of yer truck

Don't it sound so good?

oh really?

From the door on the Subway in Douglas, Ga:
"We no longer accept checks no more."

So you do accept checks?
