Clever one, that guy...

We have a chalkboard over the toilet in our master bathroom.  In my imagination it was going to be the special place where my wonderful husband and I leave sweet little love notes to each other.  So far, I'm the only one who has written on it.  With the exception of the time I wrote a long list of things I love him "more than" and at the end he wrote "except Jesus" and made me feel like a jerk.  I have also learned, through experience, not to write anything that I wouldn't want my kids saying.

My dreams have taken a downhill slide lately into things like "Don't forget to get milk" and "I am not a jerk".  So romantic.  Yesterday this is what I left for him:

Because whoever build our house decided NOT to put a light fixture over the cave of a toilet we have, I know that this is possibly hard to read.  It states "please stop putting laundry behind the door".  This is a longstanding pet peeve of mine.  The age-old "why do you put your laundry NEXT to the basket instead of IN the basket".  Pretty sure I've mentioned it before.  

This morning, I walk into the bathroom to beautify myself - only to find....

Now, was this supposed to be a FUNNY for his wife?  Was he just not paying attention?  Is he sitting in church right now giggling at himself for how he got around my request (BTW, I'm not a heathen, I have a sick kiddo today....)?  

He's clever, I'll give him that.

  1. It must be a campus minister thing. I bought a little dry erase board for the fridge with the same idea, and I'm the only one to write on it, too. Except Mikayla, who changes what I write to make it funny. (i.e.: Kecia loves Mike becomes Kecia loves cake).
    And the laundry thing...
    sigh!

  2. It's a guy thing - we live in boxes (see "Men Are Like Waffles, Women Are Like Spaghetti" by Bill and Pam Farrell) and it's just hard to think about more than one ... sometimes two, but never three ... thing at once. "Get me to the church on time" FAR overrides "Now, where did she tell me to put the clothes?" Not excusing us, just explaining the inside of a man's head (head head head ... that was the echo from inside a man's head ... get it? Never mind.)
