Afternoon guys! Shame the spring like weather has turned wintry again, but not to fret..........spring will come.it has to!
Right, remember my hubby gave up the cigs, in November, after 50 years of heavy smoking?
well he did something wonderful last weekend, with the money he was saving.
It will be our 40th wedding anniversary on 25th........................crikey!
So he asked me if i would like a ruby ring to mark the occassion. i said i don`t like rubies, but prefer diamonds! Cheek of it! Then he asked what else would I like. Well, I couldn`t think of owt. i already have 2 diamond rings and don`t really want another!
Then we heard from our youngest daughter that her car had died. She planned to get a bike, with a seat for her 3 yr old. Then they and her 9 yr old would cycle to nursery, school and then she to work 5 miles away! Hubby and I were so concerned they might have an accident. No, we weren`t happy!
Then he started looking on e bay for a car for her. No luck. So i then continued the search and found a little micra, with low mileage, automatic (what she and I passed our tersts with) and just 7 miles from our house. Hubby went to look at it ............. and bought it for her!
he delivered it that night and daughter is delighted with it.
I named it for her. As the car is red, her name is now `Ruby` What else could she be called!!!!!
Now a few days ago, hubby suddenly had nicotine demons invading his brain. Oh no.what did he do? He bought a pack of 10....and has smoked 8 sinceThursday. Today he went for the grocery shop and walked straight past the fag kisok and told himself he neither wants nor needs them. hope he can re-find the strength to do without.
What a treasure he is to us all.
luv POllx
As for giving up smoking your hubby has done really well as it,s not easy, i,m an ex smoker and know how tough it can be, been stopped a year next month so feel pretty smug about it but never complacent it,s so easy to be drawn back in, i hope he gets over this minor glitch, i,m sure he will.
