Mr. Slipper Socks Man

If you've never stopped by Cote de Texas for a peek at her wonderfully elegant blog then you truly have been missing out. But her most recent post, Guess Who's Famous?, had me in stitches last night and even my Mr. Tide (he doesn't own any slipper socks and I'm thinking I should be thankful for this!) was amused by this very funny post.

Mr. Tide and Mr. Slipper Socks Man must surely be related somewhere down the line as I kept imaging Mr. Tide doing the very same thing as Mr. Slipper Socks Man, given the same set of circumstances!

We live in the country, and our neighbors consist mostly of deer, wild geese, eagles, swans and squirrels at the moment, but we do have a few "human" neighbors who I'm sure are delighted when Mr. Tide takes our two dogs out each morning in his robe and boat shoes! When I recently asked him "Aren't you worried that one of the neighbors will see you when you're out there in your robe?" he matter of factly replied "Oh I stay near the garage, so they can't see me!" Since we live on the water, the house is oriented so that the living areas take advantage of the view, meaning the garage is the MOST visible part of our house from the street, so I'm thinking his logic is slightly flawed! I guess I should just be happy it is him getting up way too early and taking the pups out in the freezing cold!

If you need a little pick me up on a Monday morning, be sure to pop over to Cote de Texas, I promise it WILL put a smile on your face!
