Not everyone that lives around 1832 THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE ON THIS STREET ARE FREAKING NUTS! Drive are freaking nuts. There are also some very gentle and slow moving retirees, who often look at Adoring and Wonderful Husband and the Babe and I as we pass by with the same expression they might have if they were looking at the scrapbooks that document their lives. The look is sweet and just a bit sad, and I hope to have it cross my own face someday.
One older woman who lives at the bend of the street often happens to be outside at just the same time as Adoring and Wonderful Husband passes on his way home from trekking through the field with the Woof. He’ll come home with a wet and dirty and smelly dog, as well as a fistful of coupons.
“What are those?” I nose.
“Coupons for Huggies from the lady down the street again.” The first time she gave them to him she said she’d been holding on to them for a while.
“Aww, that’s so sweet.” And so they pass from under the magnet of her fridge to under the magnet of ours, where they stay until they expire, because we prefer Pampers, but can’t bring ourselves to tell her that.

4 sweet nothing:
Your street sounds like an awesome combination of Wisteria Lane and Melrose Place...with a dash of Golden Girls! I love it...
Aww that is sweet (on both sides). As for the Huggies/Pampers thing... Pampers are way better until they start potty training then the Huggies begin to kick ass (they make the swimming diaper and the pull ups) so you're not only sweet but wise in the long-term. I've also been meaning to tell you how much cheaper childcare is in Regina (as a possible pull) - I'm talking half the price and yet Ottawa still came up with the $100 subsidy like it might make a dent(I know it was really that Harper bastard but still you know how it is in the west if we can blame Ottawa, we will).
