I made Lunch & She scraped my feet!


I know it sounds strange..lol So I make us both a nice salad for lunch,Lori takes her lunch break and we enjoy a nice lunch together.Lori disappears for a few minutes and returns with some strange looking egg-like tool.She sits down beside me and tells me to give her my foot..sooo I'm thinkin' "bonus" I am going to get a foot rub!
Well think again..She proceeded to take the egg looking thing and start running it over my foot,while telling me "Let me know if i hurt you" I guess my dry cracky feet got the best of her.lol and she decided it was time to take drastic measures..So while she scraped and buffed I complained and laughed & we made it thru the ideal without to much drama..And ya know i must admit my feet look amd feel much better! Not what i had expected for lunchtime activity but it was fun nonetheless..
