On July 29th 2006 I married Lee. We did not always see eye to eye, in the beginning he was my boss! Our journey began at a magical retail store called Circuit City. CC as we called it was a wonderland of electronics. For all you youngsters Circuit City was very similar to Best Buy but way cooler. The company set in place operations that Best Buy and other stores use. Circuity City really came to be in 1984 when it got is new name Circuit City. It was in the time of Radio Shack and where I went with my dad often in my childhood. I came to CC in 2000 in my college years looking for a part time job. Unknown to me a childhood friend who had moved off not only worked at the one I walked into but was a department manager there as well. He told me to go talk to the store manager and insisted even though I was in some PJ pants and looked like I a hot mess. I was a college kid lol what can I say. The GM Jerry hired me and so begun my CC journey. Lee was an department manager at that time too. I started out as a product specialist over Cd’s. Long story short Lee became the store manager and I became the operations manager in a very short time. We never even though about each other in a relationship type of way. However apparently that was not the plan that was set forth for us. It was a dare that got us on a date… a date that would alter our lives forever. We dated for two years and then he proposed… I can not even believe its been 12 years, 5 houses (CC moved us a lot to open stores), 2 kids, tons of video games being played together, many funny laughs over each others craziness and a love and support you only wish for.
Lee is my number one fan and I wan his. He supports my love of crafts, video games, books and whatever else finds its way into my life and I do the same for him. Today we are celebrating by staying at home with out two amazing sons and fur kids. Currently he is adding a plug into a wall that I have been requesting and I am drink hot tea in hopes to soothe a horrible sinus head/earache. I am using this time to celebrate my love with others. I am am crochet some more hats to donate to the local Sav-A-Life Beanies for Babies drive. I had wrote a post regarding it that you can see here.Â
The pattern I am using on these little hats can be found here. They are a quick and easy way to use up scraps and to create something to share love. I am using James Brett Marble Chunky. This yarn is leftovers from my mother in law. She uses that yarn to make blankets to give and now I am using the leftovers from her sharing of love to spread love to new little ones.
I hope you are enjoying you July 29th and doing some you love and with ones you love as well. Have a lovely weekend and Happy Yarning!
