"To get the chicks one must coax the hen." ~ Unknown
Todays word: Cajole
To coax gently and persistently
The weekend started out in the usual way for the DD household, which means, like most families - errands and shopping (which are really the same thing most of the time!) After the rounds of dropping kids at work and parties the husband and I found ourselves alone in the store - wow, that doesn't happen often.
Alone in the store with no one to toss unwanted items into the cart, no one to beg for stuff I don't want to buy - or so I thought.
Hubby and I found ourselves in front of the sunglass display.
Like every other redblooded woman, I love to see my guy in sunglasses, but he's a creature of habit and has resisted parting ways with his favorite pair of shades for a while now. Yes, ladies - the sunglasses are broken and have been glued! So while I was cajoling him into getting a new, improved pair of sexy shades - he turned the table on me and coaxed me into doing the same.
My problem is not that I've grown attached my sunglasses, my problem is more than I have at least a dozen pairs - somewhere. I can never find them. I leave them places, forget where I put them, toss them in the backseat of the car to be stolen by one of the kids...I think you get the idea. ![]()
This is what I picked out. Not sure if I like them yet...

Don’t get me started on sunglasses. lol.
Yours look nice though. And heck, if you can’t find them might as well quick up a new pair. Hopefully your hubby tossed his glued pair.
Mr.G tries to cajole me into buying sunglasses, but I tend to barrow his instead. Mostly because, every time I purchase a pair I lose or break them. Grr. Since I’ve used his I haven’t lost or broken any. Strange.

So far they work! Don’t forget to bring them to Orlando! Laura(Quote)
My hubby just broke his too.
Ugh. I will have to cajole him to buy something that costs more than a few dollars.
