~NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL LOVE...~

This morning, like every morning, I woke to the usual early morning sounds of sweet husband going out for the morning paper...and I dozed off. I started back awake when the garage door slammed. I decided to get up and go see his smiling face and have some coffee...and yes, investigate. BAD move!
NO smiling face this morning...

As I entered the kitchen I saw a pile of papers on the kitchen floor in front of the refrigerator...




And more crumpled papers on the island...and a grim face which I didn't photograph because my sweetie was NOT in the mood to be photographed!! (my camera is always handy lately...) :)


See? Not a pretty sight early in the morning is it?? Not when one expects a welcoming smile and a hot cup of coffee...

He was NOT smiling and he was smoothing away like crazy and explained to me that the sprinklers had wet his morning paper through and through...so...

...he had taken it to the garage...as he had once seen me do with another piece of paper that had gotten wet...and he threw the entire paper into the dryer. I guess he had forgotten that the paper I had dried had been small and I had IRONED it dry


Yep...this newpaper had seen a better morning... all hard, crisp and rather crunchy. NOT easy to read...


So I gathered it all up..assured him I could fix it (I admit to feeling like Super Woman that had come to save the day...um..morning....)


Remember that beautiful steam iron I bought awhile back...(only just a tad worried about my adorable ironing board cover that a lady made for me..) Ah well...sweet husband was more important right now...poor baby!!


See that steam? LOVE that iron!!

And in no time flat....not perfect..but certainly readable....and I just...


... love that smiling face! ok, ok..this was taken tonight when he was tired....he had quite a day...mowed the lawn...edged...weeded...

Well...you would have had to be here... :)

*I was singing .."Oh Happy Day" all day long!*

Love and hugs..
