This time they are from my parents. :-)
My mom and stepdad have a brand-new hot tub. B, my stepdad, has been soooooooo looking forward to getting this hot tub. They've had some delivery issues and then installation issues , but they FINALLY got it installed. But before they could use it they had to shock it with the chemicals. It was finally ready for use...at 11 pm on a Friday night. B wanted to get in anyway, but Mom was pooped and said no way. And since he didn't want to experience his new hot tub alone, he waited.
Saturday morning he started tossing and turning around 5. Fluffing the pillows, turning this way and that. But Mom just (sort of) slept away. Finally at 6 he turned on the lamp on his side of the bed. Mom woke up and said, "What are you doing???"
"Oh, just reading," B said.
Mom thought, UGHHHHHHH, and tried to go back to sleep, but finally got up and started making some coffee. At which point B said,
"Well hey, since you're up, let's get in the hot tub!"
:-)
And just to prove how great a couple they are...now a funny from my mom.
I was talking to her a couple days ago, and we were discussing plans for her to fly out here for a visit. She said that she had tossed around the idea of being here in October for my birthday, but she has a teacher inservice and can't. She said, "I thought it'd be neat, since you're turning the big three-oh this year."
I said, "Mom, I turned 30 last year."
She said, "Oh my!" Pause. "Well....did I make it special?"
