We Can Relate to That!

March tends to be windy here. We’ve had some winds so far, but they haven’t been as bad as the time Andy stayed down here rather than risk them.

He did stay down here last Saturday, but for a different reason. He started to get up around 8 or so but he was cold, so he climbed back under the covers and slept for a couple more hours.

When I mentioned that to Kaitlin she wrote,

Brrr! I wouldn’t get up either. But he does get all the blankets in winter (his time is almost up for the year!).

Huh? Oh, yeah. When she was young she and Andy had a running joke. They shared the blankets — equitably. He got them in winter, and she got them in summer. What could be more fair than that?

I still laugh when I think of it. Hurray for family jokes and happy memories.

    …put some rocks in your pockets so you don’t blow away!

    Boy it can get windy up there without the trees… I do love the blanket story.

    That is funny. And I’m glad that Andy is not one of those men who force themselves to get things done no matter what!

  4. It’s been windy here too and it’s gonna blow winter back at us!

    We still have to get through unpredictable March, sigh.

    How cute! I agree … no matter how old, some family “insider” memories still have the power to prompt Troy’s and my chuckles.

    Glad he did what I did, I also went back to bed and slept 2 more hours. He is really sensible and a good man to share his blankets …

  8. That’s funny! We have had a lot of winds over the last few weeks. Take care.

  9. We had that wind today! Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

    Oh my word, I am laughing so hard at their deal to share the blankets. I love it.
