How Did I Get So Lucky?

	101+ Things I love about you version II
	You're incredibly beautiful smile Dimples The way tour hand feels in mine The soft scent that’s in the air as you walk by Playing with your long hair The way you look at me when we’re together  When you can’t stop laughing The sound of your voice You're name…I love to say it When you say my name Every hard earned scar The cute mole on the small of your back The feel of your skin The smell of your hair You love me the way I am You're fierce loyalty You're example encourages me to always be better When I hear you come in the room at bedtime You believe in me Great shoulders Arms Legs Everything else Introducing you to people as my wife of 23 years Best looking grandma on the planet Hugs Kisses Awesome mother Totally awesome grandmother Listening to your prayers Watching you teach Red pumps Black tights Friday night dates Sleeping in on Saturday with you Out work everyone around you The way everyone is drawn to you How after 23 years when I look at you its like the first time, every time Leg warmers/sweats Champion of the underdog That I'm there to wake you when your having a bad dream When you hold me tight at night That you get prettier every year You're tiny toes with no nails When you cut my hair When I'm with you it's like I'm driving a fancy new car, heads are turning  Jeans and t-shirts I don't need to have fantasies you are my fantasy The way you get real close when we are around other guys Emerson How you always want to make things nice for me Always think of others before yourself Red Butte Gardens My hand on your waist When you come to my office to see me.   How we talk to each other without words from the stand How you can talk to anyone like they were your best friend Trying new things like sushi How you drive like a race-car driver You're not a sissy That you always want me to smell the purfume ads When you can't not smile I can make you feel better when you sad That your left leg is slightly shorter than the right Going to rock concerts with me and being the loudest one there Driving at night while you sleep You don't mind if I choose you’re clothes Did I mention how pretty you are? Trampolines Sprinklers Swing-set Sitting with me around a campfire How you make the bed That you will iron my shirts When people in the theater are laughing at your laughing When you write me notes and put them in my suitcase when I go out of town When you send me a text You like it when I watch TV while you go to sleep Talking with me in the man-cave You're pony tail When you wear my hats How you get excited when Def Leopard comes on the radio The way you're handwriting looks…I can tell it from anyone The feeling I get when I think about you When you tell me everyday that you love me You're integrity I can trust you with anything When you kiss my neck Did I mention that infectious smile? Together forever not long enough Green eyes You never give up Smoothing You laugh at my jokes The feel of your hair on my skin You always have my back The sound of your voice Saturday nights Sunday dinners Holding your arm 101 not nearly enough! Sitting in the backyard late at nigh talking Your belly button The smell of you skin Morning walks Xena Warrior Princess You trust me That you will try new things with me "Good Nap!" "Food's good hot" Kmart…inside joke The bed is empty when your not there How you always tell the kids, "OK, but this is the last time"(again) New Mexico  Our favorite intersection
	Happy Anniversary to my best friend and sweetheart.
	I Love You,

Tribute to Yvonne

The internet is a splendid thing.  As I was perusing the vast amounts of useless information I came across a gem.  All one of you that read my last post may remember that I recently had a birthday.  September 1st to be exact.  To my ever loving bewilderment I learned that I share a birthday with the lovely Yvonne DeCarlo.  Lest you think this is another one of my sarcastic musings, you would be terribly misinformed.  Yvonne DeCarlo stole my heart at a young pubescent age as I ran home from school and would sit in front of the tube to watch the Munsters.  Yeah there was Eddie, Herman, Grandpa and the others, but Lilly Munster stole the show.  Lilly was the ghoulish matriarchal head of the...dare I say dysfunctional family?  She turned dysfunction into a symphony of function.

The pieces all came together for me as I was reading of Yvonne's lengthy roles.  I always thought that Moses in the 10 Commandments got the prettiest wife, even though they made her to be the oldest and homeliest of the sisters.  Moses got quality and beauty with Yvonne. She herded the sheep as Moses retreats to Mt. Sinai to commune with God, she like the matriarchal Munster mom, keeps it all together while everything else around is in chaos.

Sadly Yvonne past in 2007 of heart failure...which would be an appropriate end to a lovely lady who stole my heart many years ago. 

Genesis Chapter One

Yesterday was my 44th birthday. Hardly a milestone in the grand scheme of things, but significant things are going on in my head. While I can hardly claim a midlife "crisis" I do claim a midlife pondering as to the meaning of life. Not just life per se, but my life. We've all heard the rhetorical questions, "why am I here", "where am I going", "what are you going to do with your life". Good questions!

I tell my faithful, beautiful spouse and best friend for half my life, that in my head I am 10 years old. Yeah...really 10 years old. I'm still that little kid that is sarcastic, inappropriate in public and likes to tease my little sister. I have refused to grow up in my head and often that kid pops out in my grown up world. When the 10 year old pops out I usually get a humorous response, looks of disgust or a puzzled look from someone who has no idea what just happened. My poor body on the other hand is pushing 70! So what is my point? Well unlike Seinfeld's sitcom, a "show about nothing", this blog is a little of everything. Yep, that's it, everything that comes to my ever so fertile mind. If you dare or care to take the ride with me them fasten your seat-belt because who knows where this could take us. I am happy to take on cyber hitch-hikers.

How would I describe myself? I would like to quote one of my all time hero's, Hank Hill, "Dang it, I am sick and tired of every one's asinine ideas about me. I'm not a redneck, and I'm not a Hollywood jerk, I'm something else entirely. I'm...I'm complicated!"

Complicated...I guess we are all complicated. Some more than others.
