Note to Self: Pretty Feet Edition

  • Be 110% certain of who you are sending a text to before you send it.
  • 120%.
  • Because an innocent text sent to the babysitter asking about her availability could possibly appear not-so-innocent when received by the husband of a friend.
  • Also, even though you hit END before the screen says SENT, it still gets sent.
  • Be really thankful for friends that find the humor in this.
  • Really, really thankful.
  • Be 110% certain that the alarm is turned off before you open the front door to let the dog out.
  • 120%.
  • Because that alarm is FREAKING LOUD.
  • Loud enough to startle people into peeing their pants just a little.
  • And by "people" you mean the 3-year-old little person.
  • Say that often enough, you just might start to believe it.
  • Thankfully The Husband is back to let the dog out.
  • Thankfully that means you can sleep in the bed again.
  • The bed just isn't as fun with him gone.
  • Also, your bedroom feels about 20 degrees colder than the rest of the house.
  • When The Husband is gone, there is no one to warm up the bed before you get in it.
  • And the TV keeps you company when you're on the couch.
  • And you can stare at your Pretty Feet.
Happy Friday!

Dh used to have my cell # and his mom's right by each other in his phone. He learned to be extra careful about the texts he would send. LMAO

Love your pretty feet!

You are HILARIOUS! Love your writing!

Me and the Hubs send dirty texts to each other. Just one of the ways we keep the tabasco in the marriage.

Anyways, it would super bad suck if someone got one of those by mistake. Also, I wonder if I would claim I was phished?

See, two problems here,

Your percentages are off, and, always ask if they can baby-sit right off the bat. They will then tell you if they are available or not.

See how helpful I am?

Loving Wife, Working Mom said...

The pilot light of our water heater went out, and since my husband is out of town I went across the street and ask our neighbor if when her husband came home could "he come over and light my pilot since my husband is out of town." I am still purple from blushing so hard.

Kathryn said...

ha ha...yep can agree w/the text...one time i meant to forward a message to my mom and then talk trash about it...sadly i did a reply and my message went to the person that sent it and not my mom. hence why you should never talk behind someones back...yes i learned my lesson! i feel so small now for telling that! ha ha

Those slippers are so cute.

I cannot count the times the kids have forgotten to turn the alarm off before letting the dog out - and the alarm is right next to my bedroom - talk about a wake up call!!!!

Great post!
Love to you

The text is funny! I actually heard today about a new app called Tiger Text. It's crazy...Through this app you can actually delete a text message you sent to someone elses phone even if they have saved it..it will be erased. Crazy! Hope you have a great weekend!

leigh said...

All very solid pieces of advice.
Your feet sure do look fancy!

Sarah said...
