Cowboy here. Those who know my wife are aware that Sar lives in the fast lane. Almost everything is done in double time. Periodically the imp runs out of steam, her batteries need recharging and she slows down long enough to read a book or write a bit. New meds are slowly taking effect. A few more appointments until we know what's what. In the interim, she's resting more than usual. This pleases me but it's also unlike her so it disturbs me a bit too.
Frequently I get email asking what it's like to live with a whirling imp. Where do I begin?
Through a lot of years of wedded bliss I have learned to just accept certain truths.
Regarding food: My wife--
/ eats chocolate first, other food second.
/ eats dessert first, dinner second.
/ does not share chocolate or dessert.
/ stashes food around the house so a snack is always available.
/ asked Santa to give her a chocolate factory for Christmas.
Regarding dancing: My wife--
/ dances almost every day
/ dances nude in the backyard when there is a full moon (regardless of the consequences)
/ often dances nude in front of me when I'm in the middle of a daily workout. This immediately stops the workout, etc.
/ asked Santa for new leg warmers to wear in the winter when she's dancing nude etc.
Regarding animals: My wife--
/ is a magnet for creatures wild and domestic
/ has given twinkies and cracker jack to every animal ever encountered and turned them into junk food junkies
/ can train any animal in her care. (This includes sailors and marines who rush to do her bidding in spite of my orders.)
/ asked Santa for a pair of giraffes for Christmas.
Generalizations: My wife--
/ will rarely admit when she doesn't feel well
/ will eat some green vegetables - contrary to popular opinion - as long as they are raw. Sar does not eat cooked vegetables.
/ climbs trees no matter how many times I tell her not to
/ races like the wind just to feel it in her face
/ plays in the rain and snow regardless of how hot her tush is gonna be when I catch up with her.
/ pushes me, torments me, teases me. I thank the good Lord she loves me in spite of the fact that I'm a Neanderthal.
The imp makes my life complete.

Cowboy,

best wishes to you both

Cowboy, thank you for that, but dear Cowboy, for those of us that know and love you wife that last conclusion was and is obvious.
Tell her that her friends out here are concerned for her and to listen to the Quacks before she mutilates them.
Please give Sar a warm hug from,
Paul. aka (zealous voyeur)
Cowboy, thanks for keeping in touch. Your on going love story captures my heart like no other out here (well maybe Tom and Cassie). You two are perfectly matched! I guess Sar's job is to get completely well and back to tormenting you and your job is to keep hovering until she does. I have no doubt that you will both do your part!
Hugs,
PK
Please continue to take good care of Sar for us, we miss her when she's not around. But we do love it when you post as well, just do it because it's fun, not just because she's run her batteries down again.
Thanks for the update!
*My* question is, Does Santa ever bring her those things?
Huh?
;-)
Thanks for letting us know what's what around there. Take care of Sar and yourself, as well as the animals. Sar must recuperate before Halloween.
Cowboy,
I was wondering why we've not heard from Sar lately. Thank you for posting and keeping everyone informed. I hope Sar is back in good health very soon. I know you will keep her safe and sound.
My question is.......will Sar get those gifts from Santa this year?Marie
I'll not worry about Sar as long as you are around. You will make her take care of herself and be the reason for her to want to get back to full health. You are a dear couple and I love when either of you post.
Love,
Cassie
