Harmony, or something like it

Hi Ladies! (assuming it's mostly ladies that read my blog)

Thanks for your valuable input on spouses appreciating each other's differences. I don't think I'll ever be a hard-core 'football chick' nor will I frequent local pubs yelling out hometown cheers. But, I took notice of Dave's favorite football team today and commented to him at lunch saying, "Hey, did you notice that John was wearing a Dallas Cowboy's hat in church today?" Dave nearly fell off his chair, surprised that I noticed. Yes Dear, I do take notice in your interests. I told him, "I still don't like football, but I can appreciate that you love it, so I try to take notice of the things you enjoy."

Besides, he cooked up a fabulous fondue dinner for MY friends last nite. Between him cooking and me cleaning the house for our company, it took us an entire day to prepare for the evening. But, in the end, it was a nice evening and it was really fun to be surrounded by friends. Well, MY friends. It just so happens that Dave likes them too. Well, ok...... 3 out of 4 ain't bad. The last one has verbal diarrhea, so Dave has to wear his 'patience cap' all nite. LOL! But noone's perfect anyways.

I think Dave and Calvin would get along well if we lived there, they both are Dallas Cowboys fans and both are into snowmobiling!
Sounds like you had a fun fondue evening, I wish I could have been there too....I miss hanging out with you!!

I miss you too, Moni. Funny that our hubbies have similar interests! Any chance of you guys going to Calgary or Edmonton next summer? Looks like we might be heading out that way for a family reunion -- I think around August Long. If we go, we'll make a trip out of it and visit the mall, hot springs, that sorta thing.
