Dr. Chick is Blowing out the Candles Today

Happy Birthday to my best friend, my buddy, my "Only One" ..... Dr. Chick!

You are my favorite friend, and best adventurer.  Happy, Happy Day!

I love you.

today's letters 'mc' style

I mentioned last week one of my new found blog addictions...Today's Letters.  In no attempt to rip Em off (because she is the best letter writer), I thought I'd give it a go and post my own, Monogram Chick Today's Letter.

Dear Dr. Chick:  Thank you for making me laugh everyday.  I often ask you if I can put your witty comments on Facebook and you tell me no.  In fact, three different times I nagged you last night and all three times you told me no.  It's a shame that so many miss out on your quick wit, sure glad I don't!
Dear Jimmy Johns & Your 36 oz Fountain Diet Coke:  I love your sandwiches.  Even more, I love the bread on which your tasty sandwiches are made.  You have fountain Diet Coke & for that you get 2 thumbs up.  However, I do not love your 36oz Diet Coke prior to bed.  It was not your fault, Mr. Jimmy John, that I chose to consume a exorbitant amount of caffeine after 8:00 but rest assured I will not make that poor decision again so close to trying to get some shut eye.
Dear Bib Supplier:  Your lack of stock puts me in a pickle and I really hope you can round up some more bibs, my customers need them--pronto!
Dear Dr. Chick (who, like Mr. Loerke, gets two letters):  You really are the funniest person I know.  And yes, when you buy $325 shoes, shoe "protection devices" are necessary.  Guess that's who buys them.

Happy Birthday Dr. Chick!

32 years ago today my best friend was born.  A man who is compassionate, patient, kind and loving.  A man of God, honest, loyal, and the funniest, most whitty person I've ever known.  A man who makes me laugh each day, a man who doesn't do anything without giving it his best, a man who enjoys the outdoors, projects--big and small, an adventure, a good road trip and can (i swear) talk to animals.  32 years ago today the world was made brighter by my soul mate, the one who knows me better than anyone else, the one who supports all my crazy ideas, the man whom I love with all of my heart.

Happy Birthday Dr. Chick!  I hope your day is half as wonderful as you are!

I'm laying low in blog land

Because it is all I can do to stay sane.....I had no idea building Dr. Chick's orthodontic office would be such an undertaking. Life is a flurry of activity as we make decision after decision in anticipation of being open for business in October! Dr. Chick is updating his blog {almost} daily with the 'reno' progress, check it out.


I am quite happy with the way our sign turned out. Our great friend, Wes, cut the sign into that spiffy shape and Dr. Chick sanded and slathered it with many coats of white paint (in our living room; which another story for another day!) and then we applied the vinyl lettering to both sides.

Monogram Chick continues to chirp along behind the scenes & into the wee hours of the night. I simply have little energy for anything else these days! Thanks for hanging in there with me as posts are sporatic, I'll be more frequent--pinkie swear--when the "Operation Ortho Office" is complete! In the meantime, visit Sister Chick's blog--I am totally blown away by what an awesome blogger she is! And keep up with our office progress via Dr. Chick's blog.

PS: The fan-tab-u-lous, Nina, hooked us up with an awesome logo {as seen on our t-shirts}...more to come on that topic later, but wanted to thank Nina again for a job so well done!
