Another reason I love him (or put up with him)

So I'm working on bookkeeping in my office. John opens the door and comes through the room. As soon as he opens the door, I hear him start singing Beaches of Cheyenne which is playing on my Pandora. (Love me some Garth, although is favorite sing along is Hank.)

Although we have a bit of differences in music (most of the time we like the same stuff - the only way we really differ is he's more into hard metal and I'm more into dance music), we are still pretty doggone compatible in that area.

Several times this week and last week, I knew what he was going to say before he said it - or knew what he was thinking without him saying a word.

So what is love? Isn't part of it just compatibility and the comfort in knowing each so well? And sometimes it's almost scary how well I know that man!!

And have I mentioned that he makes me laugh?

Let it snow!



SNOW! View at 6:00 this morning.

Yep, DFW got our 3rd snow this winter. Well, the first one doesn't really count because it was just a light dusting overnight.  The 2nd one was on Christmas day, while we were in Missouri, of course.

Since the transmission went out of my car yesterday (UGH!) I was already planning to ride in with John. It was nice and snowy and slushy when we came in, but being from Missouri, it was no big deal to us.

Many of my facebook friends were upset that they had not cancelled schools. Really? In Frisco, we have community school so most of the time you are driving no more than 2 miles to a school to drop your kid off. And by the time schools started, it was much more wet than it was when we left at 6:30. Looking at the traffic map on the local TV stations showed warnings all over the metroplex of slow moving traffic and a few accidents. Radio said that it was a 3 hour commute from Sherman to McKinney on Hwy 75. Poor sheltered native Texans LOL! This would be almost like driving in summer for Missouri folks!
