A little bit of Christmas CQ-ing

For your viewing pleasure (?!) I am going to break up posting pictures of my Christmas-themed pillow cover into several posts.  The simple reason for doing that is I gots me nuttin' else to show you!!  At least for the present moment.  There's been a lot of social things going on at Chez Magpie and therefore not much time for creativity.  And to top that off, I stumbled across a rather small goldmine of information down the rabbit hole rather more commonly known as Ancestry and I've been exploring and updating my family records.

So...here's part one of my Christmas pillow cover...

I belong to a number of mailing lists form various places and quite often someone posts a good 'funny'.  This one I felt I just had to share.....

Dear Tech Support,
Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a distinct slowdown in overall system performance, particularly in the flower and jewelry applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0.
In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs, such as Romance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5, and installed undesirable programs such as NBA 5.0, NFL 3.0 and Golf Clubs 4.1. Conversation 8.0 no longer runs and Housecleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system. Please note that I have tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, but to no avail. What can I do?
Yours,
Desperate

Dear Desperate,
First, keep in mind that Boyfriend 5.0 is an entertainment package while Husband 1.0 is an operating system. Please enter the command: "I thought you loved me.html", download Tears 6.2 and be sure to install the Guilt 3.0 update. If those applications work as they were designed, Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications Jewelry 2.0 and Flowers 3.5.
However, please remember that overuse of the above applications may cause Husband 1.0 to default to Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0 or Beer 6.1. Please note that Beer 6.1 is a risky application that may download the Snoring Loudly Beta program.
Whatever you do, DO NOT, under any circumstances, install Mother-In-Law 1.0 (it runs a virus in the background that will eventually seize control of all your system resources.)
In addition, please do not attempt to reinstall Boyfriend 5.0 while on Husband 1.0. This program is unsupported and will crash the system.
In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but does have limited memory and doesn't learn new applications quickly. You may consider running additional software to improve both memory and performance of the system. We recommend Cooking 3.0 and Hot_Lingerie 7.7.
Yours,
Tech Support

Today your quote is from Kevin Costner.... "Life's better when it's fun.  Boy, that's deep, isn't it?"
