Seriously...who hired these people?
Okay, so I am in the process of reading several books right now...yeah, I know, it is probably not a smart move to try reading 4 books all at the same time..."it can get confusing" some have even said...but some of these books are "homework" so to speak even though I am clearly finished with the whole schooling process. But one of these books is called "I know you Love me, but do you like me?" It is about how to be the best friend of the person you are dating/married to. It is actually a really good book. One that I find I am agreeing with throughout the whole process...unlike the other books which when I calm down enough about them, I will write about them too. But in this "I Know you Love Me..." book, there is a whole list of those stupid labels on materials things...apparently these have caused several marriages/dating relationships to end because woman think that men are stupid for writing them, and men feel the same about women. Here they are:
On a Sears Hairdryer: Do not use while sleeping
On a bag of chips: You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside.
On a bar of Dial Soap: Directions: Use like regular soap
On some Swannson frozen dinners: Serving suggestion: defrost
On a hotel-provided shower cap in a box: fits one head
On the bottom of Tesco's Tiramisu dessert box: Do not turn upside down
On Marks&Spence Bread Pudding: Product may be hot after heating
On packaging for a Rowenta iron: Do not iron clothing while still on the body
On a bottle of children's cough medicine: Do not drive a car or operate heavy machines
On Nytol Sleep Aid: Warning: may cause drowsiness
On a Korean kitchen knife: Warning: keep out of children
On a Swedish chainsaw: Do not attempt to stop chainsaw with your hands
On Sainsbury peanut bottle: Allergy Alert: Product may contain nuts
On an American Airlines Peanut package: Directions: open package, eat nuts.
THESE PEOPLE ARE NUTS!!! WHO HIRED THEM???

3 Years in the Making
So, back on February 19, 2002 I said "yes" to the man of my dreams, and now 3 years later, we are still together, going strongand have plans for the future. Although, any rumours out there that anyone might have heard are false, we are not engaged. But on this day, I just want to tell Graham that I love him with all my heart and I look forward to the many years we have ahead of us.
I hit the door at 6:55 sack full of groceries split down the side.
Can goods scattered all the way to the curb.
Look on my face saying don't say a word.
So, it's you and me and a can of beans sitting there on the front porch swing.
Western sky all turning red.
Head on your shoulder I sighed and said:
Been gophering, chauffering, company chairmen.
Coffee maker, Copy repairman.
Anymore there ain't nothin I swear man that I don't do.
Been juggling, struggling, closing big deals.
Dancing backwards in high heels.
Just when it feels like i can't make it through.
I said it sure is nice to just be the woman with you
I said the girl I was with the highschool degree probally wouldn't recognize me.
I was going around the bank.I was going to run them out.
Now all I want to run is a bubble bath.
Back then you know I had this plan.
Before all of this reality set in.
Here comes life boy ready or not.
Hey I wanted it all and thats what I got.
Cause I'm gophering, chauffering, company chairmen.
Coffee maker, Copy repairman.

La, la, la, la, la, la
The woman with you
P.S, I never liked the rain until I walked through it with you. Now everytime I hear the rain pounding on my windowsill, my whole mind is full of thoughts of you. Thank you for the time we have had

2 thoughts for the day
First thought of the day: I wake up every morning to another crazy day I have to face and when I'm losing my direction, you are the one who points me in the right way. You always know when I am about to fall. It's almost like you are standing there when I hit the wall. Because of you my eyes are open and instead of hoping I have faith in today. So I thank you God for blue skies. When my head is down, You remind me to look up. Thank you for all those times You believed when others couldn't see. Without You where would I be?
Second thought of today: Sometimes I get emotional, sometimes I do some stupid things. Sometimes I say what I should just keep inside. Sometimes I am sad about everything. Sometimes I am mad and I break some things. Sorry times 10 but you just got in the way. Don't run away from me, I won't hurt you. Sometimes I am just a pain and that's just the way that I am. Sometimes I feel like crying, like lying down and dying, but thats when I need you. Laughing is always easy but sometimes I'm just scared that you'll leave me, that's when I feel emotional. You say that I'm just impossible, totally unpredictable. I'm just a girl get used to it. It's no big deal really and you can't change me. Why would you even try? I am no angel but I can make you smile and that is just the way it is
