A Note From A Silly Billy

Or, should I say, a very, very bad husband. NO worries...Susie is fine! I am not writing because she is ill but to let you know where she has been! We had guests from Germany arrive early Tuesday so she has been swamped with cooking and entertaining and chauffeuring. On this note, when she gets back online, ask her to tell the story of her "Silly Billy" (IE Bad, very bad) husband. A little hint? I had the wrong day for the arrival of our friends. Yep. They arrived one day earlier than she expected and while Dan and I were away for a few hours. She tells this much better than I so I will let her do the honors. Needless to say, I should be doing penance for years for this one! I hope all is well with you. My girl is always talking about each of you and adores you all. I thank you for all the love and friendship you show my Susie. I will now slink off into the sunset (Even if it is before sunrise!) where all bad husbands go. Cheers! Bill (AKA Silly, Bad, Very Bad, Billy)

Dear Husband: Buy Flowers. Lots Of Them. NOW.
Never mind, a good woman like that will (probably!) forgive you! We look forward to hearing her version of the story!!! Bobbi

Your wife is a saint. But...it sounds like despite this faux pas, you're not so bad yourself. Of course big sparkly gifts never hurt anything...;)

Rosemary said...

Wow!!
That was kind of bad!!
I'm sure she forgives you though.
Tell her hi for me, and you all have a great weekend!!

OMG! What a fiasco!! Since I'm upset if guests arrive 30 minutes early, I would have been severely bonkers! Can't wait to read Susie's version of events. I'm sure you (Bill) will think of something small and very shiny to get you out of the doghouse.

Carole Burant said...

Oh my....what are you doing out of the doghouse already??? hehe I can just imagine how shocked she was to have her guests arriving a day early...can't wait to hear her tell of it! lol xox

As much as she tells us that she loves you ... I think you'll be forgiven in short order, Bill. I also think she will be buying you a calendar and a nice marking pen soon. :) Just sayin'. xxoo

Cottage Rose said...

Awwww how sweet of you to post for her, but then again you should be. haha. I think you should make her a wonderful dinner for two and then do the cleaning up. She will love it. But wait till your company is gone. Oh and bring her, her favorite flowers and beautiful music and lots of candle light. She will forgive you then.

Hugs;

Awww, I'm sure she'll forgive you!

Oh Silly Billy, I hope you're still not in the dog house! But oh my, I would need tons of chocolate to make up for that whopper! A day early? I don't usually start my cleaning tornado until the day before! The dust bunnies would have welcomed them in while I had fainted dead away at the sight of my early guests!

You do have chocolate, don't you?

Jewelry always does wonders in these situations. :) I can't wait to read Susie's account of what transpired.

Penny from Enjoying The Simple Things said...

Oh Dear Bill.....I can not wait to hear Sue's side of the story! Tell her we are waiting with grins on our faces...and BTW - you really do NEED to take a trip to the NC mountains - Asheville/Hendersonville area. Kent and I really truly want to meet all of you!

Is this where the movie title Kill Bill originated? LOL

Jolene George said...

Oh yes! I want to hear her tell about this one...after she is done being a wonderful host of course.

Lisa Oceandreamer Swifka said...

OK I read what happened before I read this.........and since my husband wouldn't even know where to start to post on my blog....I say forgive this man! lol! Any husband who can sign on and admit to his wrong doing to throngs of female readers is aces in my book!!
Cheers!

I read the story before I got to this post. "Silly" doesn't even begin to cover what you did. If you are still allowed to sleep in your own bed, consider yourself VERY lucky. The magnitude of this type of faux pas is like a 9.2 earthquake. Grovel, man, grovel.
