THE SHOCKING REVELATION...

that I have always been a green-lovin'-gal.

The proof actually.  Discovered in the attic yesterday afternoon.

Yesterday I needed my old passport - in order to apply for a new one.  New name (married name, that is) new address, 15 years old vs. 40 years old...but they STILL need your old passport.  So I had to hunt.  And with actually very little effort, I found it. (Yea me!)

When I tossed it down the ladder to dear husband he flipped it open and commented on my handwriting.  How it hasn't really changed that much.  And then he laughed.  He said "actually, a lot of things haven't really changed that much".

As I climbed down from the attic, he pointed at the lime green t-shirt I was wearing.  He held open my old passport and pointed out that 25 years ago I was wearing...


GREEN!

Now granted, it was kelly green. Not lime green. But it was green! In fact, it happened to be an awesome cable-knit Izod, kelly green sweater that I loved! (And how about that white turtle neck under it!? Gotta love the 80s!)

So there is my proof. Proof that I'm not a new-comer to the green thing. I've done 'em all...forest green wedding, seafoam green master bedroom in the 90s, bottle green paint in the family room, and now LIME GREEN!

Love it! Just love it!

The dogs are happy today - sunlight is streaming through my front window and filling the foyer with their favorite sun spots. Problem is - the sun and the shadows are wreaking havoc on the old boys cancer lump. Meaning it looks rather disproportionate. Don't get me wrong - it's huge - but it looks rather shocking in this lighting.


And there lies the little girl - right at his haunches, ready for him to move. He sleeps and she just watches. And snuggles in as close as he'll let her.

So sweet. Just love it!

The boys just left for their day at the NFL Experience. Will be anxious to hear and see their experiences. I made dear husband take a camera, and they both were wearing their Patriots gear. Should be a fun guys day out!

I'm off to finalize my grocery list for this weekend. Party plans for both Saturday and Sunday. I'm hostessing an Uppercase Living party tomorrow afternoon...and Sunday is Scrapper-Bowl 2008 here at the house.

Have a great weekend. GO PATRIOTS!
