Questions and MAYBE Answers!



Questions and MAYBE answers! Anniversary quote, and a little challenge!

First, I must say thank you for all your lovely Anniversary wishes!

Unfortunately I had a bit of a bug on our special day; however we spent it perpendicular to one another. My Scotsman was sitting on a leather loveseat two feet away from me and I was snuggled under blankets, lying prone on the couch.

We have this little thing we do with each other……Get your minds out of the gutter! Or not....!

It is a question with only one right answer and most of the time it is because one of us has driven the other to distraction. He may have forgotten something important or I became a little intense.

 I realize most of you can’t imagine me a little intense!

If it is my Scotsman asking the question, he usually begins with a giant bear hug kissing my neck, asking,

‘how much do you love me?’ 

I may be irritated, making a bit of a face and respond by answering,

 ‘even when you make me crazy…..I love you…grrrrrrrrr!’

 After my response, usually his cuddling is followed up with a forceful smack (or two or three)…… to my behind!

On our Anniversary I asked him if he loved me even when I drive him bonkers and he wishes to strangle me. His reply was immediate,

‘I never want to strangle you, maybe throw you over my knee………!’ (The Anniversary quote of our day!)

He is soooooooo romantic!!!
 
We had a good laugh!

I know Wilma is beginning a challenge to get us healthy and fit….I am going to try. That is my goal…..LOL.---- Try to get healthy and fit! Hmmmm….. Yes, it is very nonspecific! Go with me. My life is too challenging these days. I cannot commit to anything more! LOL.

So now……drum roll…since it is question and answer month…..ask away and MAYBE….lol…..I will answer!

Seriously, I will try and be truthful and not evasive!

Thank you my friends for reading here!

Married 23 years!



                        

If I get married, I want to be very married.
Audrey Hepburn

Today My Scotsman and I will be married for 23 years.
The strange thing is we both almost forgot this important date. My guy is a total romantic and never forgets…ever.

I think we just had too much on our mind. What is important is that our love is strong and we remembered before the day passed us by! 

However I would like to celebrate what it really means to be together or married through thick and thin. We are young-ins compared to my parents, who have been married 54 years.

What is love? (written by Harleena Singh)

It is the total surrender of your heart to another person when you have that confidence that they will treat your heart better than you will.



Love feels good, not bad. It should want to make you a better person, not lead you to do something damaging. (excluding spanking lol.) It makes you glow and soar in spirit.



Love knows no limits, no boundaries, and no limitations. It is unconditional, limitless, and always flowing. We can’t avoid getting hurt in love, but it is worth any hurt to love truly.

I watch my mother and father weather the devastation that Alzheimer’s can wreck upon the life and love you know and remember.

Waking up to your sweetheart but going to bed with a stranger.

I watch my father comfort and care for the most important person in his life. His tenderness when she is scared makes me cry but proud. The compassion and devotion he has for her is all encompassing.

I watch my mom still try and care for him even when she isn’t sure what to do. We see all the times she fights to hold onto her past and present. Her love for my dad is her world. She looks for him when he is gone from her side for a brief moment. She tries so hard to be strong and he helps her!


That is POWER of TRUE enduring love, and what I hope to continue sharing with my Scotsman.

Here are some thoughtful quotes:

 If you are blessed, you are blessed, whether you are married or single.

Greta Garbo

 Sexiness wears thin after a while and beauty fades, but to be married to a person who makes you laugh every day, ah, now that's a real treat.

(person is my word…I think anyone should be able to marry if they wish.)

Joanne Woodward

“True love is born from understanding.” ~ The Buddha

Spanked On The Dance Floor!




                                  

Well swats…Really!

I know when life is getting too busy for me!
It is often when I start screwing up. (Like when I wear clothes inside-out) I forget important commitments, never people, but activities or crucial promises of my time.

Each day begins at the crack of dawn…and I am pulled many ways….like everyone else I know-- but….

Sometimes….

Maybe I forget to teach my night class…Yep happened twice in the not too distant past! ( To be honest the students cancelled twice on me so these were add-ons)

Maybe I forget to contact someone to fire the kiln at a class I teach. (Sigh) My day is so packed this happens often, and then it is too late to fix the problem.

I have to use my own money to order supplies because my time is so limited I need to hurry and get it immediately, instead of anticipating my needs…Therefore I need to wait for reimbursement…(If I do not misplace the receipt)

And….maybe I don’t want to take the car in to have the fluids topped off because that is his job…..So I drive without wind shield wiper fluid… Not again…. I know it is DANGEROUS…LOL

So to get to the point…My Scotsman always swats and tosses me over his knee when I am snarky…etc. But often the stress is still there! Surprised?

Friday we were going to meet a couple to have dinner and drinks at an Irish pub. Entertainment and dancing were on the agenda! So were TWO Martinis! Ahem….After one drink before food my guy noticed my…FIESTINESS! I was just relaxing and feeling GOOD! 

Dinner was ordered…..and I ordered another Martini….I think this is where he threatened to turn me over his knee right then and there…smiling with a "certain" look in his eye.

I said… “No you won’t” 

He said, “You taking bravery pills?”

I smiled…..Yes I did…nicely though….

We ate dinner and I nursed my second Martini. (see?)

The music began and I was bursting to dance. (Stress relief..here I come) We made our way to the floor. He took my right hand and grasped it up near his shoulder, his right arm around my waist and a hand on my back.

The song was one that many may dance alone or close together! I wanted to (and did) wiggle (To the faster beat) against his slower LEAD (to the slower beat).

He whispered, “Come closer and slow down…, let me set the pace.”

I didn’t really listen….No I wasn't hearing him...

SMACK! His hand came down on my bottom! 

Holy cow! I looked up and around! No one seemed shocked!

Sheesh! I was red faced and maybe slowed down immediately!

He always surprises me!

We finished our dance in harmony!
