So let's say my boss comes in and starts animatedly talking.
"Gee, boo, gee, booo ahhhh!" Says he, pointing and gesticulating at me wildly.
Translation- "Mother, you've worked so hard and done such a fantastic job at raising me so far that I am giving you a three month reprieve. Go, be free, wander!"
"Ha!" I'd say. "Why in the world would I want a break from my life?!"
I mean, why would I want to leave a baby who runs around the house like a looney toon, tearing things out of drawers and off of shelves faster than I can say "no"?
Or choose to relax on Greek beaches when there are public pools all over this fine city?
Who would even think about taking bike rides in the crisp New England air when they have a perfectly good stroller and 100 degree weather at their disposal?
Or hope to have a snowy Thanksgiving meal when they have the opportunity to eat outside with friendly mosquitos?
Not I, my friends, not I.
I mean, I was simply throwing those other options out there...

LIVE THE MURRAYED LIFE
See that's why I found this prompt a little difficult. My 3 month break would have to include my people. I can't leave for 3 months without them. 3 weeks...maybe... :)
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love. I need to climb inside that second picture like five minutes ago.
ReplyDeleteThese images just instantly make me smile. Especially that snowy one. Snow days are the best!
ReplyDeleteHa! Well that's one way to look at it...
ReplyDeleteI would take all three of those places, at those times.
ReplyDeleteHahaha, why would you even bring up such ridiculous things?! Greek beaches?! If it's not surrounded by concrete and full of chlorine it's not for me.
ReplyDeleteAll of the photos are lovely!! Makes me want to visit those places too!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments on my blog! Glad you get the British thing. :)
ReplyDeleteI love that last picture, they are all beautiful, but that last one I want to climb into. You could always take your previous boy with you ;)
ReplyDeleteThat meant to say precious boy!!!!
DeleteGREEECE!! If I was going to be more specific about my post, I would have said Greece.
ReplyDeletecan i come join you?! i can't believe i forgot to put greece on my travel list! i'm so stupid.
ReplyDeleteClever, clever, clever.
ReplyDeleteyou can take Dax with you, I'm certain.
I was trying to figure out what your boss was saying... then I realized who the boss was ;-) Thanks for the translation! Those pictures are heavenly!
ReplyDeletehahaha,
ReplyDeletei'm smiling as i read the your opening. your boss seems so kind. thanks for the translation.
and, yeah. if you have a boss like that, why would you want to go to New England or have a white thanksgiving? r
do i detect sarcasm, I am never sure...we didn't cover this in school! so do you guys get snow in texas? I really love the pictures, maybe just take the boss with you!
ReplyDeleteIts always interesting to contemplate different places to live and different lives to have, but I am like you I like my life although sometimes it would be nice to try something different =)
