This week my foto is all about the vacuum cord.

The vacuum cord, leaving it out drives my husband crazy. I never wrap it up because I know that in 24 hours or less I am going to be using the vacuum again. I would say I am a bit OCD with the vacuuming in my house. Anyway, we go round and round about the cord. He gets so mad at me for leaving it strung out across the floor because he steps on it. My response to him is, “step over it” . I find it funny but he doesn’t.

Then to agitate me he will wrap up the cord but not the way you are supposed to by putting it on the two little hooks on the back. No he warps it around his arms then hangs it over the top. This tends to tangle the cord really bad, hence ticking me off.

I bet we have this little battle and argument 4 or 5 times a week. It will never end because I am not wrapping up the cord (unless someone is coming over) and he is going to keep stepping on it just so he can complain. In all honesty I think this has become a battle of wills. We will be 90 and still having this argument over the vacuum cleaners cord….LOL.

So do you have something that you go back and forth about with your husband? Something that neither of you are willing to give an inch on?

Now that you have answered my question, go check out Candid Carrie and everyone else plying along today.

Friday's Photo Finish Fiesta (Happy Halloween)

This weeks photo's are all about Halloween and I promised everyone that I would post pictures of my costumes. As you know if you read my post earlier this week about my Halloween Costume Crisis you know that I foolishly told my son we would make a Sponge Bob costume. Crafty I am not, detailed I am not, patient with crafty things I am not. So why I ever said we would make a costume is beyond me.

I went shopping with Luke yesterday and we bought everything to make the costume. My husband didn’t want me to do it with out his help. He is an Engineer and he is very meticulous about things. Again, foolishly I agreed to wait until he got home so we could make this costume.

Well instantly we are not getting along because everything I cut out is not good enough. I will admit it wasn’t perfect but Luke is 5 and he isn’t going to care. Mr. Engineer has his rulers, tape measures and templates for everything and this was no exception.

Well by 11:15 I had my fill of the “that doesn’t look good” or “do it this way” so I went to bed. I thought Luke can be the Transformer that I bought because I can’t deal with this anymore.

Again, patient I am not. 3:00A.M. and my husband still have not come to bed. I go down stairs and he is still working on this costume but was almost finished.

All I can say is WOW…. He did an amazing job and did so much better than I ever would have done. So I give my husband all the credit here for giving Luke such a great costume. Hubby got 2 hours of sleep Wednesday night before getting up and going to work in the morning.

Now I feel guilty for letting him do this great costume all on his own and staying up so late. I guess I should be thankful my husband loves his kids so much and is always willing to go that extra mile for them.
