Faking it in bed....................

Suzan says - John - want to have some fun in the bedroom?
John magically appears pronto with a smile on his face
Suzan says - I want to do a post on the magic that happens in our bed
John says - I really think you're going too far - it's out of control what you write about
Suzan says - This could be a good post John
John says - Well  I don't want any part of that post - leave me out of it - seriously Suzan
John says - Are you thinking of starting a pornography blog?
Suzan says - Puleeze - that would be the most boring blog of all
Suzan says - can you grab an end of that sheet laying there
John says - Why?
Suzan says - I need to cut it in half
John says - Why?  It's a perfectly good sheet - PEOPLE DO NOT DO THIS SUZAN
Suzan says - Ah but this is where the magic starts sweetie

As in having the type of bed frame that prohibits me from buying those gorgeous bed skirts I so covet.


I don't have a box spring where the skirt would normally lay on - but need to have one ( because of lack of storage and the fact that half of my worldly belongings reside underneath it ( as in all my shoes ) 

Suzan says - Can you help me take the mattress off the bed?
John says -Come on Suzan,  I'm watching soccer - can it wait?
Suzan says - Well you certainly came running in the room quickly the first time I asked



I simple cut the sheet in half - doubled it for some fullness - and stapled it all along the inside of the frame


Want to see another way I fake it in bed?

I love duvet covers - love love love them 
I hate putting duvet covers on duvets - hate hate hate it
So this is how I fake that

I make up the bed with the duvet


then just " lay " the duvet cover on top of that


I fold the top sheet down over the duvet cover ( that's just resting on top of the duvet ) 


and no one would ever know that I didn't struggle for a half an hour trying to fit the duvet into the corners of the cover - ( does anyone else hate doing that as much as I do ? )  Honestly?  That particular job can make me crazy - a sweating, cursing, messy, crazy person.


are women disingenuous?
yeah - some of us are when we need to be( although some much more than others )

2012 - Endings make me sad

2012
don't go I cried - stay awhile
I need yet to remember
January through December
and the way it made me smile

don't go I begged - rest by me
I need to know
before you go
that you'll forever see

the joy you brought
the things you taught
the price I paid
the friends I made
the way I grew
just knowing you

2012
don't leave just yet
lest I forget
the year gone past
it went too fast
I need to cling awhile more
before I close another door

2012 
you were my friend
where did you go? why must you end?
With heavy heart, I watch you go
you took my heart, you see
and so
though my mind knows
that time moves on
my heart's not ready
for farewell songs

but leave you must
I realize
as I wipe memories from my eyes
and file you in
the memory banks
under heartfelt - warmest - truest thanks

2012 you're always be
one of the very best years for me
you brought hundreds and hundreds of new friends my way 
and gave me new reasons
to smile each day...................

To all of my friends in blogland I wish you much joy - much happiness - health and success.
And the happiest of New Year's filled with, above all, peace.
Please know how much I treasure you all - and how you have made a difference in my world..........................

For auld lang syne, my friend,
for auld lang syne,
we'll take a cup o' kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.


See you all next year! ( tomorrow )
