Now, we live on a busy street, and when I was still nursing, there was lots of cleavage around my house.

Then last week was dry, but the sump pump was still putting out water in the back yard, while my husband stood in our front yard watering the grass seed sometimes in the dark at 8:30 at night. it's raining daily again now so the show is over until we have to reseed next month ;-)<br /><br />I also scream "SLOW DOWN" at people who drive by too fast if they have their windows down and i frequently take the garbage out in my pajamas. <br /><br />Hey. why isn't MY husband taking out the garbage? Oh, that's right, he plays volleyball on Monday nights. You didn't know i was married to a beach bum too, did ya? My bum just plays in indoor sand as upstate is not known for it's year round beaches :-)Elissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07080322252869480034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4734054384499566902.post-57492349627107610712011-05-16T07:08:42.584-07:002011-05-16T07:08:42.584-07:00well---this is how I did...

I SWEAR we didn't do it but I enjoyed it as much as if we had!<br /><br />Bibliomama: Allison, See HelpMama above for forking instructions. By the time I was 18 I swore I would never date a surfer. My husband tricked me. He had short dark hair and it was December when I met him so he wasn't very tan. He caught me before I learned the truth!<br /><br />Mrs. Tuna: Well. Only on the 2cd Saturday of the month just before the full moon ; )<br /><br />Susan: Yep, the Queen wave! Your comment cracked me up because, do you know what I am? I Am A Local where I live.

I love my neighbours to the left (we party together regularly), and my neighbours to the right aren't around much but are perfectly nice. Our across-the-streets are a little sanctimonious but still nice. And from the stories I've heard, I do count my blessings regularly. And right now I'm also thankful that my husband doesn't surf.Bibliomamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11825424183978181238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4734054384499566902.post-14615451013518093062011-05-14T16:09:49.879-07:002011-05-14T16:09:49.879-07:00ROTFL at thE comments!

My condolences. On the neighbors too. My next doors are lovely people luckily (for me) and I'm clear on the other side but just beyond that, some real trophies. Then again I think, well I know, they think the same about us!
