*Huuge PINK post!*
Sunday........sun is shining.......birds are twittering........GG decides this afternoon is going to be hers(cos she's been waking up feeling a bit 'iffy' in the mornings lately)
So, out comes the sunlounger and the umbrella (after probing the deep dark recesses of the shed and wading through the detritis therin - do we really need to keep that old rusty budgie cage? We've never even had a budgie! Ah, wait a minute - middle daughter had a finch when she lived here! Why do our offspring have such tidy houses? Because all their rubbish is still here with us!! )
Anyway there's GG in 'lazy Sunday afternoon mode' - plate of salad, glass of wine (sorry Coni, just had to have it!) good book....heaven!....Til she falls asleep.......
I wake up glasses all askew, (book had been removed by hubby who had paid a fleeting visit during half-time!) to find I had pale pink shins!!!! My feet were in the shade of the shed, my head was still under the shade of the umbrella, but my shins were in full sun!!! My legs now resemble a pink and white zebra crossing!
......but I digress from the main point of my story (nothing new there then!).
Last Thursday I popped home from school for lunch (I'm fortunate to work in a school right opposite my house). Upon opening the front door I gasped in horror, and clamped my hand across my mouth, speechless (yes, it is possible but only for a nanno second!) !!
Dearest hubby (I am trying to say the name without having thoughts of causing him torturous pain!) had decided to get friendly neighbour (who was sat on the top stair with huge paintbrush in hand) to paint the lower half of the hallway, up the stairs and the landing upstairs. Thoughtful hubby I hear you say! NO...mad and derranged hubby! MY HALLWAY ETC. WAS PINK! .....BARBIE PINK in all it's glory...it possitively GLOWED!!!!
GG: "What have you done!" ( language was rather more colourful, use your imagination)
Hubby: " I thought you'd like it "
GG: "Well....don't think!!!!"
Hubby: "You've been banging on for ages about getting it done......dear!"
GG: "Not like this!"
Hubby: " I take it you don't like it then?....dear?"
GG: " I can't believe you actually went and BOUGHT the paint, and PAID someone to do this act of vandalism! Get rid of it!"
GG goes back to school (hungry) and ponders the many evil ways to inflict discomfort on dahling hubby. That evening dahling hubby gets it in the ear from daughters number 1,2 and 3. (who are secretly doubled up laughing, especially when dahling hubby said he'd try and talk rottweiler mum around! Anyone ever tried to stop a bullet with their teeth?)
Anyway, one phone call to friendly neighbour and he agrees to come back and re-do it to save our marriage! Comforting Magnolia this time (which is what GG wanted in the first place!)
But...........he didn't specify when........so...........
The clock is ticking dahling hubby, if it 'aint done within the next week.......I'll not be responsible for the consequences!
To all my friends on NMP........if I tend not to be around for a while......you'll know I've finally dunnit!!!
Thanks for letting me 'sound off' ....again!!
