Haven't heard the saying about looking like your pet but yes, after 32 years DH and I share certain common attributes.

Ha!

Bet you're cute regardless.

Hey, my boobies never made it past an A-cup (despite applying Miracle Gro...j.k.), so I've always been really pear-shaped, LOL.

ITA re: having a self-deprecating sense of humor - It's a wonderful life enhancer.

Can't abide people who don't have one, especially about themselves.

Old saying? I never in my life heard that saying. I have heard that the longer you are married the more you look like your spouse.

I fell down a flight of stairs in 2011, resulting in damage to a nerve along my spine and slight case of winged scapula on my right shoulder.

In summary, my pigeon and I have 'wing' issues on the right side. Kinda eerie sometimes.
I like this. My husband brought home a baby pigeon he took from the street where he works. It didn't seem to be able to fly or was weak from the cold. We had an old birdcage and he kept him in there for close to a month until he was strong enough to fend for himself. He took him back and released him. He flew away all strong and with a full belly. I sure hope he made it through the winter.

Your husband or the pigeon?

I don't think so! I have a black lab and black whippet. I buy porcelain foundation ! I do look like my dh, tho!😉 One day a student of mine saw my dh with me. He asked if he were my husband. When I said yes he said, "I thought so, he looks just like you!"🙄

Never underestimate the power of kindness.
