A Silly Girlie Post

So I was catching up on my houseblog reading last night when I came upon a post on the Devil Queen about housebloggers who blog no more (don't be giving this blog that look, yes I know I am one of those he's talking about). It was about this guy who is giving up remodeling because he is going to become a male model. Of course I have to check that out, because I happen to like good looking men. And if this good looking man is doing remodeling work I might have to pick up this here ream of paper to fan myself a bit. My!

So I click on the link and before the page has a chance to load (I have dial up) Tim comes in from mowing. I reluctantly gave up on waiting to go spend time with my husband, who I married because he is so good looking and does remodeling work for me. So really it wasn't a loss.

But now today I get the page loaded and guess who he has on his blog roll??? Little old me. A male model finds the print version of myself interesting! I'm all tittering and blushing alone in my computer room. Man, I wish I had combed my hair this morning!

And so you don't think I'm completely shallow I'm starting with his first post and reading in chronological order, not trolling for pictures like I really want to, hehe. I must say so far it is a very good read, I'm sorry to have found it so late, and that he won't be posting any more.

And if he gets a chance away from that new exciting life to read this little old post I must say even though I don't have any idea what you look like you will still be my go to guy for all modeling jobs here at the farmhouse. Who knows I could be secretly writing one of those sultry women's romance novels. Yes, I could be, you don't really know what I'm doing with the time I'm not blogging anymore. And I could need a male model to photograph for the front cover. I can see it now, "The Farm Wife's Secret" or maybe "Love In The Time Of Remodeling".

His blog is: Nate's Fargo Fixer-Upper .

Alright, you had me laughing the whole way through that one. Unfortunately I'm not the handsome hunk type of model... more like the awkward skinny high-fashion magazine type. I doubt you'd want me gracing the cover of your romance novel. I'm handy with a paint brush though, so maybe I could be painting a wall in the background or something.

I'm very flattered by the post though. I can tell you have started at the beginning. It was 'a very good read' then, before the house started crushing my soul. Towards the end I just laid out the facts and tried to refrain from cursing.

Love your house though and I still enjoy reading your blog! I'm so bored out here in New York; the blogs I follow keep me busy! What, you thought a model's life was all about exotic locations and extravagant night life? Not so much for this guy yet!

Glad you took it in good humor. I read it afterwards, and thought oh my gosh what if he thinks I'm totaly objectifying him and he's insulted. Tim says I can get a little carried away with the sarcasm and that I have to remember people out there don't know me and maybe can't tell when I'm kidding. So you're smart and can take a joke -sigh-. Maybe you should hook up with some of the NYC housebloggers. You can hang out and smell their fumes so you don't forget what you are missing out on. No wait, that's a bad idea. You should enjoy this break so when you return you're all misty eyed about it. Like me now. I'd kill for a dumpster in my yard and some paneling to tear down.

I loved this post! I knew right off the bat you were talking about Nate! He doesn't give himself enough credit... he is a very handsome young man! I check everyday to see if you have posted. I even read your other spot (Beyond...)!
