Subject: 15 years of marriage

The husband and wife go to a counselor after 15 years of marriage.

The counselor asks them what the problem is and the wife goes into a
tirade listing every problem they have ever had in the 15 years they’ve been
married.

She goes on and on and on.

Finally, the counselor gets up, goes around the desk, embraces the woman
and kisses her passionately. The woman shuts up and sits quietly in a daze.

The counselor turns to the husband and says “that is what your wife needs
at least three times a week. Can you do that?”

The husband thinks for a moment and replies,
“Well, I can get her here Monday and Wednesday, but Friday I golf.

it’s a good day

to be cozy. We are having some weather. I have no real news of my own to report – continued progress on the felted flower bag, I expect to be whipping up the roses today and perhaps get some spinning time in. We have a late morning appointment for Poe – it’s check up time …..

awwww ….. I hate to wake him!

I hope you all have a wonderful Thursday – it’s my favorite day of the week for some inexplicable reason.

Another fantastic spinning class!

editor’s note: Cara thinks no one will click the link on the word spirit ….. please prove her wrong.

Before I show you the pictures from my spinning class, I would like to give a shout out to all the Knitting Olympians – what an inspiration you all are! And a special shout out to all those Boston girls. I’d like to think that if I had done the Olympics, I would have been on your team and am sorry I didn’t make it to your fabulous party. You know I was there in spirit don’t you?

And now onto my fabulous Tuesday …..
