Dry as a Bone

Living with my husband brings constant laughs to normal everyday routines. I've posted about his crafty skills before, but today takes the cake. I came home to J giving Burkly a nice bath. 10 minutes later, I see him blowing her dry with this:


According to his analysis, it cut her drying time down from 45 minutes and 8 towels to 5 minutes and 1 towel. Genius.

I must make sure my husband never sees this post or he will try the same tactic on our 4 kids when it's his turn to bathe them.

He really does get creative at Burkly's expense doesn't he?? :)

And Burks stayed there while he wielded that monstrous thing at her?! I am all for cutting down on the towels w/ G., but I don't see him taking this like a day at the spa!

Yes, J is quite creative when it comes to Burkly. But I guess I should add, this did not hurt or bother her. It was cool air and I'm still trying to figure out who was more excited by it. Burks or J?

Well, JJ's mind tends to wander to places where no man has ever been before!! This takes the cake, however, over and above the "4-paws drive" incident. The most hysterical thing about this is that he saw it as completely rational and Burks stood there and let him do that!! Hoagie would be in Illinois by now. Too funny!
Love, MOM

That is the funniest thing I have ever seen. I love it. Good thinking. Isn't it wonderful living with a inventful man. Something I would never have thought about.

I seriously spit my drink out when I read this. I can just imagine my husband doing the same. Crafty and slightly crazy at the same time!
