You hit th...Oh we can tell it all. With you girl. <br /><br />You hit the nail perfect Sandra.<br /><br />And it is the silly things but it can be terrible drastic. <br /><br />My hubby years ago had the habit of filling up the sink with dish soap. For the dishes. Of course I do them. No big deal. We don't use dish washer for just a couple of items. The two of us. I can do them quicker then loading them in dish washer. <br /><br />Walks away hubby and I hear water running.<br /><br />Go to the sink. Hands over my mouth. You know that women action. OH NO.<br /><br /> The soap suds is over flowing onto the floor.Like we need a bucket of soap suds.<br /><br />Well that day he got all the floors washed right to the back hall.<br /><br />The hearing and the not seeing or not paying any attention what one does and walks away. It happens. <br /><br /><br />Great blog. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435521207575893989.post-86382397151756411562015-06-09T11:41:53.843-04:002015-06-09T11:41:53.843-04:00Sounds very familiar to me.
