Buzzard's Nest

in #new6 years ago

It's funny after 43 years of marriage, you suddenly wake up and realize who it is you married. I am a morning person. Candy is NOT! I never noticed much before. All these years she has gotten up and fixed me a cup of coffee and prepared my lunch to go to work, I thought she was just crabby. It never dawned on me she would rather be sleeping. Here I was, The Tasmanian Devil, around her like a tornado, growling and snorting trying to get out the door on time, and she stood there like the cartoon buzzard, " Duh, which way did he go?" holding a cup of coffee for me. She would be wearing mismatched flannel jammies, with one eye open. God Bless Her! I woke from an eleven hour dream this morning. We were 20 years younger, but I wasn't half the fool I am today. What a glorious dream. I'm going to go sit on my hands in the kitchen and let her sleep till noon if she likes.
