Just So You Know...

My Husband, you know him right? The tall handsome guy who likes to grab the back of your arm and squeeze really hard. Yeah, him. He left a mark on me the other day. But don't worry I told him, since he's the police and he said he reported it (liar).

Anyway, Kiel has a, what I like to call his "Just So You Know List." It's a mental list of random things that "we" are going to accumulate throughout our time here on Earth and he always adds things to the list randomly.

Like when we are driving on the freeway and we see a Ferrari pass us Kiel will say "Just so you know we are going to own one of those." Or if he notices that his brother in law is selling his motorcycle, Kiel will chime in "just so you know, I'm going to have one of those." Or when we are at Home Depot buying paint, and he wanders off to go check out something that will be added to "the list."

"Why do we need an air compressor?" I asked

"For all kinds of stuff an air compressor is a necessity." He replied.

I shrugged, I have know idea what an air compressor does (or what one looked like until he showed me), but I guess he plans on opening up his own tire shop one day?

But with every item added on the list I always reply the same. "Just so you know, we are buying a house, putting the kids through college and having an ample amount of savings before you get anything on your 'just so you know' list."

Well this weekend Kiel got something on his list. We went to Target and purchased a BBQ, and fed the missionaries an awesome grilled meal. Of course I had to talk Kiel out of buying a giant one from Costco. He still got a really good one. But later that night he said,

"Just so you know, we are getting a built in BBQ when we have our own house."

"Great!" I said, "I love a man that BBQ's."
