Vince and I had several phone conversations today. He’s been living in Texas for a week now.
Call #1:
Vince: What are you doing?
Me: Cleaning house. The appraiser will be here around noon.
Vince: I just had the most wonderful breakfast. The Mexican restaurant here has breakfast and it was so good . . and the best coffee in town.
Me: I had a Pop-Tart for breakfast!
Call #2:
Vince: What are you doing?
Me: I’m trying to go through some of the stuff in the garage, pull some of it out to donate and throw away some of it.
Vince: I just had the best steak I think I’ve ever had! Jody told me about a great steakhouse in Santa Anna so I went there. The steak melted in my mouth!
Me: I had a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch!
Call #3:
Vince: What are you doing?
Me: Trying to clean the spots on the carpet on the stairs and then I’m going to give Speck a bath.
Vince: I think I’m going to sit out in the hot tub for a while.
Me: Don’t call back please! 🙂
No, I didn’t really tell him not to call back but I think he’s just living the life of leisure while he’s enjoying his time — eating out and having no responsibility at home. It’s going to cost him . . big time! 🙂

Karen says
I’m laughing too – sounds like you need to book an appointment for a massage and pedicure/manicure for this week to get back at him 🙂

I remember those days. It isn’t fair, but you will have so much fun during pay back time. 🙂
Lee Ann L. says
This made me laugh! I had to read it to Dan (my husband) and it made him laugh too!
julie says
Well, maybe he found you a house here in Texas! so he gets one point back…right??
Barbara says
you are soooooooooo funny!!!!!
Karen Langseth says
I think you should drown your sorrows by visiting the Loopy Ewe…..retail therapy always makes me feel good.
Pat in Washington says
OK, that made me laugh – sounds like you still have your sense of humor too!
Janice says
Was it my imagination or did I see a post saying that you had found a house in Texas? It showed up in my google reader but when I clicked on it I couldn’t get it to come up.

Oh Judy I see some serious payback in Vince’s future! LOL
pdudgeon says
Vince sounds like he’s really happy where he is, and that he likes living there.
Nancy in NC says
Sounds just like conversations between my husband and I when we were in the “in transtion” phase as well. Although i also removed wallpaper and repainted every room in the house while he was off…..somewhere.
Sandra Neel Hutchins says
Looking forward to your Monday’s blog and hoping that the house that we saw on your blog for a very short time yesterday will be yours very soon. It looked great!
Weed says
Now that’s the Vince I remember from College!!!!
Marilyn says
My mother in law told me this weekend that a quilt shop has opened in Santa Anna. We just got back from the San Angelo/Ballinger area for a short visit with the folks.
Linda Kay says
Did Vince tell you that in his part of Texas, it’s a little over 101 right now? And you know it’s gonna be hotter about 5:30 or 6:00!!!

I just had this same conversation today! I got an email saying “I had a great meal at a Mexican resturant in I. Falls. Wish you were here!” I get that a lot also.
