Ogre Toes

The kids were in bed,
and the husband and I were enjoying
America's Got Talent
and a little Orange Julius

When he casually asked me
if I liked his
Ogre Toes.
I laughed
and couldn't believe he had them
on the couch.

Oh Well.

This is the price I pay
for having a fabulous husband.

He has ruined numerous pairs of shoes
by mowing in them,
and now,
is content to mow barefoot,
(as long as there is no dog poop in the yard).

And while I could complain,
I won't
because I have not once
since having a yard
mowed it.


I am capable
(have been since the ripe old age of 8)
and have had much experience
having had a 1 acre yard to mow in Indiana

But my husband
Doesn't mind it
LIKES IT
Enjoys it

and who am I
to deprive him of the pleasure?


He turns that ipod on
and he's off.


What a man.
An ogre-toed man.

cool green toes...we have been so busy and it looks like things are only going to get busier. We still don't have a name picked out, but once she is born we will tell you what it is!!! Thanks for the comment.
