A Spot of T: Busted

Gregg surprised us last night and drove home, which is fantastic except I gave our Oiler's tickets to the game today to our oldest daughter. His words when he heard this? "Arrrrrgh!" I didn't think he was coming home. He said he wanted to surprise me, but I think my surprise of giving the tickets away was bigger.

So he sits down at the table, looks at me and says.......

Gregg: "Right on, you got your hair permed. Looks great Joy."

And I say........

Joy: "Oh hey thanks Gregg. I got this perm at the end of August."

Busted.

Now there are some women out there who would sulk and carry on because....boo hoo....their husbands just don't notice them anymore or......whine.......he doesn't love me anymore I know it.

I guess I shouldn't say it like that. Some women really need those compliments from their husbands. I'm not one of those women.

I know my husband loves me and I also know he'll eventually notice. I won't even make up excuses for him because quite frankly I'm probably just as bad.

But it's the reaction I get when these little things happen that make me smile.......and make the most memories for me.

Gregg: "Oh. Um. Well I knew that, I just didn't want to say anything because I know those perms have to settle and I was waiting for your hair to settle."

Gregg....looking at our son.....asks: "They do have to settle don't they?"

Michael: "Dad. I'm 16, I don't have a clue what a perm is supposed to do. I do know you've just been busted though."

Gregg: "No No, I knew. I was just waiting til it settled."

I don't have a clue what he was talking about.....settled?........but to see the expression on his face was priceless.
