First order of business: Happy Birthday, Mom!
Secondly: K is my husband.
My mom called me but the call dropped almost immediately. Then she called back.
Me: Hello again.
Mom: Where ARE you??!
Me: Mom… you’re the one who dropped the call.
Mom: I know. I just wondered where you are.
. . .
While watching the Super Bowl in overtime.
Me: What the heck. Falcons had this. I don’t like Tom Brady. He’s a poophead.
K: A poophead, eh? That’s harsh.
. . .
Me: Self-pity doesn’t look good on you.
K: Everything looks good on me. Except sweaters.
. . .
K’s grandparents dropped off some candy at the office for us.
K: Do you have any Valentine’s Day candy left?
Me: …yes. What are you in the market for?
K: I’ll trade you these Skittles for something.
Me: You know I don’t eat Skittles.
*K gets up and starts to walk over.*
Me: Hey! Sit back down. You don’t get to raid my inventory.
. . .
Me: Alright, we’ve got to figure out lunch because I’m dying.
K: I’m not hungry yet.
Me: Fine. I’ll just get myself food. Maybe a bento box from Katana.
K: Get me a Hollywood roll.
Me: At this rate why don’t we just go eat there?!
K: I’m still full from my McDonald’s.
Me: AND THE TRUTH COMES OUT. No wonder you’re not hungry. You’ve been holding out on me.
. . .
Me: What would you do if I died?
K: Right now?
Me: Yes.
K: Probably drive you to a hospital.
Me: ….okay. I mean long term.
K: Oh. I don’t know.
. . .
We were sitting with a financial advisor discussing IRAs and K’s overall worth due to the business. The advisor stepped out of the office to get something and left us alone.
K (quietly): I’m worth more to you alive than dead.
Me: That’s true. For now…
. . .
I made a cleaning list to keep myself accountable. But then K saw it and decided to initial next to the chores he had completed.
And to be clear, by initialing next to “Load/Unload Dish Washer” he literally put his dinner plate in the rack. That’s it.
. . .
I’m glad we get each other’s somewhat dark humor. Ha.
Ha – I love how he initialled “rest day”!
I have a little wipe board on the fridge where I list chores. Some (like “clean the oven”) have been on there for months without getting rubbed out. Ooops!

Oh my gosh…. I can’t take it! AHAHAHA! This is hysterical. I like how literal he was with that “drive you to the hospital” one. I ask Jerry what he’d do if I died too and he always shushes me and tells me not to talk about it. Why wouldn’t he drive me to the hospital?! LOL

Hahahaha- I’m actually surprise K didn’t say something along the lines of “Get rid of the body”, lol. We were in the car during that conversation, though, so I think he was trying to be logical. Ha.

When I originally put the chart up- just to keep myself accountable/show K what chores could be done each day if he felt so inclined- he actually groaned at me. Then he saw the “rest day” on Friday and decided he could be a smarta**. Lol

I think Tom Brady is a poophead too. 😉 I love how he initialed on “rest day.” So funny!

I wasn’t really rooting for anyone in the SB. Then the Patriots started catching up and for some reason I was suddenly emotionally invested (in the Falcons). Ha.
K is such a turd. Haha. I tried to tell him we weren’t initialing anything, we’re just doing the tasks. But he felt the need to initial the jobs he did/wanted to do.

I love these! Clearly you two are meant to be. Also, I always tell Nick I’m not hungry and then I end up eating all of the food he gets himself. I should just learn that I am pretty much always hungry:)

YES. Hahaha! Sometimes when K is going through a drive-thru and I say, “no thanks, I already ate” he still gets me fries or chips because he knows I’m going to beg for food like a dog. Hahahaha!
