He'll have my hide for this!


This morning I ran across this today, our 8.5 x 7.5 ft Cow hide Rug! Hang on, he's probably turning blue by now. (Honey, you can stop hyperventilating, there's a paper bag next to the computer, see it? Get it, and breathe Very Slowly! This is just the stock photo from the vendor I bought it from. I didn't actually take your baby out in the grass to take pictures. ) Sorry about that, Now where was I?....Okay this is the RUG, I bought my husband two years ago for Christmas. I was so excited to finally be able to afford something he had been drooling over for a long time, and surprise him. So, long story short where did I run across it today? Defiantly Not in the floor, Not where you would expect to find a RUG. No, it's neatly folded and tucked away in the closet. Away where nothing, Not kids, Not dust, Nothing can hurt it. Nor can anyone dare step a foot on it. You see we are saving it to drape across our bed, when we finally have our own home, that he will eventually build when we have money. (Right honey?) Tell them sweetie, tell these fine readers what you told me. ( Here let me help you *my hands moving his lips*) "It's NOT a RUG!" Well it darn sure could've fooled me!Why, somebody needs to contact the company selling them, and tell them they have there information All wrong. It is Not a rug! What was I thinking going to actually put it in the floor and walk across it, the nerve! Lean in real Close (*Whispering*...What he doesn't know is when he's at work I throw it in the floor and stomp all over it eating peanut butter and jelly ) I'm kidding! Sweetie, Don't give me that look! I'm only joking !! ( I'm really naked and rolling on it! lol, lol ) "Oh get off me..I need to finish this...So, someday hopefully before I am old and gray (nudge, nudge) we will have the furriest fanciest bed accessory around.(*Wink*)

  1. Funny! In our house, I am the one that hides nice things away on account of the fact that I am aware of the magnitude of destruction of which my son is capable. I have lamented their loss, because I love nice things, but I love keeping them nice more...so they will reappear when my child(ren) can contrive not to tear through my house with hurricane force. In the meantime, I have created my own little room that no one is allowed to enter. Here I can enjoy my beautiful belongings and having them clean for longer than four minutes after I finish the cleaning...
    Love the note to animal rights activists at the end by the way...hilarious!

  3. Ohhh, so very cool. The first thing that would happen to that rug in my home would involve a puppy and pee...wanna dog? If the animal rights guys get ahold of this one you'll never see the end of it! I'm guessing the cow probably didn't need the hide since he was probably already on a BBQ somewhere, but that's just a guess. I hope you get that fancy bed soon...I say put in on the bed you have now!

  10. Love that Favorite Reads things you did on your sidebar.

    You're a very good wife for even thinking of allowing a COW RUG on your bed!! I'd have him in his own bed with that cow!

  11. i love those gifts that you buy for one purpose thinking they will be so special and used and then end up in the closet. Good luck with the dream home and fanciest bed in the world

  12. What a beautiful rug/bed cover. I say use it now too. It is nice to try to keep nice things the way you get them, but come on. You'll never get any joy out of it. Ask hubby if you can use it now and make your bedroom off limits to the kids. It is to beautiful to go to waste in a closet
    p.s I hope it is softer than it looks. Wouldn't waant you to get those nasty rug burns.
