The Cold War is over! I couldn’t take it any more. The other day while Big Bear was upstairs I stealthily moved toward the furnace switch and secretly moved the button to H.E.A.T! It was a moment of relief and defeat, but DANG! I was COLD. I was hoping that he wouldn’t notice, but that smell of dust burning gave me away!A few minutes later I hear BB coming down the stairs. Then I hear: “What is that smell? Would that be the glorious smell of success?” He walks into the kitchen with his hands raised above his head as the “Champion”. He gloated for a moment or two – seemed like 12, but who was counting? Then he said, “It’s about f___king time! It’s d__n cold in this house!”
Grrrrrrrr!!!!
It was a good thing I did turn on the heat, because that night the temperature fell into the low 20’s. I don’t even want to think about how cold the house would have been the next morning!
Sorry to hear you had to cave in...lol..
ReplyDeleteAt least your warm now...
Have a Great Week..
Glad you were the bigger person and waived the white flag of surrender. Heat is better than freezing to death....and it has been mighty cold these last few days....brrrr
ReplyDeleteYou two are funny! ....hmmm, now we know who the most STUBBORN one in your marriage is!
ReplyDeleteI gave in several weeks ago. You're a MUCH stronger woman than I.
ReplyDeleteThe smell of success...that's funny.
ReplyDeletePS. My spam word is "brutl". I guess that's appropriate for the tone of this post. LOL!
Heh.
ReplyDeleteI'm just glad you aren't freezing your arse off anymore.
okay seriously - you are a better gal than I - that heat would have been cranked a long time ago. Now don't hate me but last week our morning were like high 50's - 60 and I turned my heated seat on in my car. I hate being cold. I sleep with those fuzzy chenille socks even tho' it's sw florida. Stay warm my friend.
