Surprise

When I asked on Thursday for ideas of what to do on the weekend, I got an overwhelming response. Not from readers...But from Hubby. It seems that since he is working all weekend - He has a list of things that he would normally do on the weekend that he has transferred to me. For example..."Could you go out to the backyard first thing in the morning and water the plants?"
No. By the time I get up, dressed and out the door the sun will be shining bright and it will no longer be the morning hour.
Last night while snacking on the couch..Me:"oops looks like I dropped something" him:"That's okay...You'll be vacuuming tomorrow."

Here's the best one...Him: "Why don't you marinate the steak tomorrow?"
me: "I didn't know that we had steak"
him: "Just go up the hill to that place that we go and get some. You could surprise me."
me: "You want me to go to a specific store and buy two steaks, come home, marinate them, cook them and serve them to you as a surprise?"
him: "No, You'd better buy three. That way I'll have something for my lunch."
me: "Okay, so I'm going to the specific store, buying three steaks, marinating them, cooking them...on the BBQ, and serving them to you. What would you like with them?"
him: "Potatoes and broccoli and garlic bread...Just surprise me."
me: "Surprise..I'm taking you to the Keg! They've got good steak"
him: *laughs* "Just don't burn the steak"

I guess the surprise would be if I actually did what he asked. Ha! We're having roast beef tonight. Surprise!
