This is MrG. He wears cowboy boots until they are worn through.

[ScreamingMeemie]

He has a cowboy hat that is 20 years old up in the closet that he wears every once in a while. He holds his pants up with a belt that has a belt buckle on it...always has. He carries a kerchief.

The only thing he has wrangled in the past year is the bratty little girl sitting in his lap.

Is he delusional? No. It's the way his Kentucky Daddy raised him and he's comfortable in it. I'm glad I didn't judge him because of it. :hi:

[auntAgonist]

1. My first husband

always wore western shirts, a large belt buckle and was known to wear a cowboy hat once in a while. Boots definately.
A snappy dresser he was!!

Your Man is handsome MrsG. And, he's very luck to have YOU.

:loveya:

[ScreamingMeemie]

7. Thanks aA. Anyone'll tell you I'm the lucky one.

He's brought so much Good to my life. And I would love for you to meet him.

:loveya:

[auntAgonist]

27. We will make it happen Mrs G!

When everyone is well and feeling like lunch somewhere in the middle, we'll make it happen:)

:yourock:

[bicentennial_baby]

2. plus, he's wicked hottie!

never seen the beard look before, that's a new one! :hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

9. When he gets lazy he grows it out. He hates to shave. But then, when

I get sick of trimming it, he cuts it off. I love him both ways. :hi: Except, when he shaves, it tends to look like I've robbed the cradle. ;)

[Redstone]

3. Who doesn't?

Redstone

[ScreamingMeemie]

12. Some, I guess.

You are the best, Redstone...even if you come from the same hometown as that bitchy, weird voiced old cranky woman. ;) :hi: kidding....

[Redstone]

24. Don't forget that she was shaky, too.

Not to poke fun at people with problems, but...it used to give me the willies to see interviews with her. If I were doing the actual interview, I'd have had to fight hard to resist grabbing an ear in each hand, clamping her head real tight in the crook of my elbow, and shouting: "sit STILL, would you???"

Redstone

PS: And yes, I do wear cowboy boots, hat, and belt. Every day.

[Fenris]

4. I like his style.

"You can take the boy out of the country..."

Ask flamingyouth. Whenever I'm around my family, I have a Texas accent. When I'm not, I sound like I could be from anywhere BUT Texas.

:hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

13. It's very funny....because, when MrG has a few beers in him, and when

he used to hang with his dad...he would drawl. He has the greatest voice. :hi:

[Fenris]

16. I tell you, you just can't escape it.

And you should never try to. :hi:

[bigwillq]

5. Great pic!

Cute dog and cute hubby!:hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

15. I catch my breath each time I look at him.

:hug: Thanks bigwill. It's my favorite of the latest pics of him...and Jess.

[bigwillq]

25. Oh Jess....

Cutie dog.

I think it's amazing how sweet and in love you sound when you talk about Mr. G.
That makes me so happy.
I'm one of those people that don't mind public displays of affection. I'm not sure if you're like that in public. But I don't mind when people do that, I mean at times it's like--get a room---but why be pissed that two people love each other. Be happy for them. People that hate on other people for showing their love, are just flat out jealous.

:toast: < To Mr. and Mrs. G!

[ScreamingMeemie]

Thanks bigwill! It was a lucky day the day he gave me a second

chance. :)

As for public...He gives me his arm when we are walking, sometimes calls me "love", and isn't unwelcoming of a tiny peck, but we pretty much keep it to that. But lots of hugs at home. :)

[bigwillq]

32. Gave YOU a second chance?

Ut oh, did you almost ruin it!?!?!?

I gave my b/f a second chance, so I always tell him he's lucky.
But in our four years, he gave me a few second chances too!:)

[ScreamingMeemie]

39. Once upon a time...MrsG was a "bad ass" girl who went looking for

a "bad ass" boy...MrG didn't fit the bill, I found someone who did...and I was sorry for it. All's well that ends well. :)

[bigwillq]

41. It was meant to be!

Things always happen for a reason and things are met to work themselves out. I really believe that. I don't know if it's fate or karma or whatever some people call it but it happens that way.

That's why I like you--BAD ASS!:)

[bertha katzenengel]

6. MrsG, I adore you.

:bounce:

I hate to confess it, but it's going to take some convincing to get me to the party Friday night. I have NO energy these days, and I'll be getting there after a long day at work. So twist my arm...

[ScreamingMeemie]

18. I adore you more.

And it is teary eyed that I am to tell you that I had to cancel. I am scheduled for surgery this Thursday and will be in the hospital when my plane takes off. I am sick and angry and disappointed all rolled into one. I let myself get excited too early. :(


You are loved so much.

:hug:

[bertha katzenengel]

19. WHAT?!

SEE PM

[jpgray]

8. That shot reminds me of our old sheltie

The thing never slept, tried to herd us, and regularly cleared our massive couch with a single bound. :o

[ScreamingMeemie]

21. Add the I want in... out....i n...out....in... out... hurl self at back

door...in...out...and you've described her to a tee. :hi:

[jpgray]

26. LOL--I think all sheep dogs are slightly nuts

The most deeply psycho dog we had was a border collie. The things that dog would do were incomprehensible for a breed so ostensibly intelligent. :dunce:

[xmas74]

10. What's wrong w/ that?

Nothing. Most of the guys I know are the same way.

[ScreamingMeemie]

28. Nothing in my book.

I wouldn't want him any other way. :)

[xmas74]

29. Exactly.

I grew up around men like this. Good hearts, hard workers, never hurt a soul-good men all around.

[yvr girl]

11. OMG is he HOT!

Why ever are you grumpy?

[ScreamingMeemie]

30. I never did get around to telling you, did I?

The story goes like this:

I was out to dinner with DUer (and best friend) PassingFair and her kids. We were joking around and I screwed up and said (spoonerlike), "If you did that, it would make MrsGrumpy very Harper." Ever since, they've called me "MrsHarpy" or "MrsGrumpy", which I thought would make an excellent screen name...until people started mistaking me for an angry pensioner. :) :hi:

[RevCheesehead]

14. With a cutie like that,

it puzzles me even more why you're called Mrs. Grumpy.

[ScreamingMeemie]

31. See above. I've come clean again.

;) :hi:

[In_The_Wind]

17. one question

does Mr. Grumpy have a single brother

[ScreamingMeemie]

33. He's got a brother married to a...well, let's say...

less than nice woman. I'd hook you up in a heartbeat. ;) :hug:

[In_The_Wind]

43. thanks ... but

no


no married men ...

unless it's only a platonic friendship ...

[ScreamingMeemie]

44. Well...

I'll let you know if that changes then. :) ;)

[In_The_Wind]

46. it's a deal ...

cause I don't have any plans to go anywhere at all ...

Except for meet-ups and visiting DUers.

[JVS]

20. He's history's greatest monster!

;-)

[ScreamingMeemie]

34. Hee.

:hi:

[flamingyouth]

22. I love a truck-driving native Texan.

I wouldn't change a thing. :hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

35. And I am so happy to see you happy, Lisa.

You deserve it. :hug:

[flamingyouth]

36. Aw, thank you.

How are you doing? :hug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

38. I'm still upset...and just biding my time till Thursday.

But, I'll get over it. Thanks for asking. :hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

23. My dear MrsGrumpy.....

Your husband is gorgeous, knock down and drag out gorgeous!

A keeper, in other words...Congratulations to both of you.....

And thank you for posting this wonderful pic......


:loveya: :hug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

37. Awww...Thanks Peggy.

You've been on my mind all this week. And I only hope that life is going gentle and easy on you. :loveya:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

53. Awww....you are too good to me...worrying about me when you're

facing surgery...Blessings on you! I'm OK, thanks...forward and back, forward and back goes my heart...trying to heal....

I'm sick of hurting...trying to stay angry or something else...poop..

:dilemma:

[arwalden]

40. That's One Of My Favorite Photos Of Mr Grumpy!!

I can't decide if I like him better with the beard or clean-shaven. Hmmmmm. Damn, woman! You're so lucky!

[ScreamingMeemie]

42. I can't either!

:) He is good to me. Sometimes I could just eat him up! :hug:

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

45. Nice-looking wrangler, MrsG!

But more importantly, he must be a wonderful person on the inside to be with someone like you.

[ScreamingMeemie]

47. Thanks DTBK...but he makes me a better person.

:hug:

[graywarrior]

48. I can't figure who's cuter, Mr.G or the dog.

[ScreamingMeemie]

50. Sometimes they change places cuteness wise.

:) Jessie will "tell" you she's cuter though by resting her head on your knee and staring needfully up at you. :)

[graywarrior]

51. That would do it for me.

[Beware the Beast Man]

49. You know who he looks like in that pic?

That's a compliment, Mrs. G. :hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

52. I can see that! Thanks BBM!

:hi: Good to see you! How is Cathy?

[Beware the Beast Man]

56. Excellent!

We celebrate 2 years of wedded bliss tomorrow...:loveya:

[6000eliot]

54. Mr. G. is mad hot, Mrs. G.

The doggie is cute too.

[progmom]

55. Hey Mrs G....

:hi:

You make a good point. :hug:

And you have a really cute husband. :D
