The Second Time Around

Way back in early 2020, 18 years ago now, the officiant we booked gave us a questionnaire to complete so she could get to know us better. With our Covid themed wedding we trimmed everything down and we never discussed those questionnaires. This was my second marriage, but Scott's first. At 49 (yes I married a younger man!) he had never been married, no kids, a stone cold bachelor. One question was, "What would you like to say to your husband? And I answered, "I am so thankful you waited for me." Pretty sweet huh? She called me crying when she read it. She also mentioned pornhub at some point after the wedding - so take all of that with a grain of salt. 

We began dating when those commercials with Danny Glover for the condition that causes you to burst into laughter first came out. Whenever Scott would say something - and his comedic timing is amazing - and I would laugh, he'd say, "I made you Glover." and I Glovered a lot.. 

As we maneuvered into being a couple we both had to make some adjustments. We're old! We've been doing our things our way for a LONG time. I have learned to leave the clean dishes in the dishwasher and he'll empty it. He's learned that when I start cleaning it's 'game on'. 

Today I had to waste some time waiting for Marshalls to open so first I did a little grocery shopping and they announced they were doing flu shots, so I got one of those. Then I swung by Steinmart who is going out of business and they had shoes on sale like you have never seen - very productive Saturday. That whole rambling we can refer to as a 'walder' story. 

When Scott came home from work today he said, "If you had to listen to the Walder story I had to today you'd shoot yourself, it had cajun accents in it and it wasn't funny at all." I Glovered. 

I told him I was going to model my three gleaming new pairs of shoes. And they are amazing and they were cheap. 50% off of 50% off. Makes your brain hurt, doesn't it? Oh and I cut my jeans too (walder story alert!) I had some jeans that I couldn't fit into and now I can. I cut them at one length on the front and longer in the back. Kind of a jeans mullet. I'm not wasting longer jeans because they aren't in style. I hope washing them helps. ANYWAY, I came out with new pair of shoes #1 - a kitten heel with a tweed pattern - and a buckle, so cute. "Don't you already have those?" My head did the Golden Retriever tilt. 'Say what?' "Don't you already have those shoes?" 'I most certainly do not.' I put on pair number two, another kitten heel in all black with a rhinestone string. They make the pants look better! Pair number three, a chunky heel sandal in a faux brown alligator pattern. For the record, there were rave reviews on pair 2 and 3 Ooooooh and aaaaaah that made me Glover for sure. Walder out!

My legs don't look like they are on the same body. lol!

Nice focus Chele.

Notice freshly hacked pants.
