My husband? Thought I was NUTS. Especially since we're out for date night and now I'm carrying this. First sort of like a baby, then, realizing that my husband is now distancing himself from me, I decide to carry him by the foot. Which got heavy in a hurry. My husband said "it's coming to dinner with us, is it?" Ummm... so we took him back to the car.
Because how could I pass him up?!? He was homeless. And this morning I got to text my husband as he was out and about and ask "Is my new baby still in your trunk?"
I'm convinced it's a boy.
that is an AWESOME find- it is so funny the things we do to our husbands!! thanks for sharing your story

Oh I'm jealous! I've been wanting to make a child size dress form.
ReplyDeleteDumpster Diving! I love you Susan. Could totally see the look on his face and the tone in his voice (your husband's that is, NOT the thing's). Thank you for the laugh this a.m.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't leave him either. He needs a Greek name...
ReplyDeleteWas he REALLY suprized you picked this up and was going to take it to dinner? Really? That's a perfect find for you. Will stand still much longer than K.
ReplyDeleteHIL-AR-I-OUS! (AND totally something I would do.) Great find.
ReplyDeleteyou gals are hilarious! love it! whats in store for this little guy?
ReplyDeleteGreat find but you do know you've now become just like them? Oh, the things I've seen taken from the dumpster pile over in my old neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteI feel the need to say that I did not climb in the dumpster to find him. He was standing beside it. No dirt or rotten food on him or near him. He wasn't even in the dumpster. No dumpster. No diving. BESIDE the dumpster. (Okay, if he was sticking out on top I still would have grabbed him.) I did not go looking for him. He found me! So I don't know what I'm going to do with him yet, since I wasn't looking for him. I'm waiting for him to tell me what he'd like to do. He's not talking yet. Susan
ReplyDeleteVery funny! Awesome find! Love that you thought it would look better if you carried him by his foot, I needed that this morning :). Love your blog!

ReplyDeleteI just laughed at my computer screen in my cube at work. People already think I'm weird.
