See our pretty tulips

It took some doin but I got her out

I did a lot of mundane things today so if I don't tell you I won't have anything to write about, so bear with me and just read through it real fast so you won't get bored.  If it will help I will try to type as fast as I can.  You can even time yourself.  Here goes, I did, laundry, light cleaning, e-mail, farming, reading, eating, drinking and more drinking, (two quarts every day) sudoku, ironing, took our dogs for a walk, watered my plants, fed my fish, pulled a large weed, actually I pulled more than one, and then I was going to sew something so I could say I did sew something but I never got around to doing...so.  : )
Two more days and I get to go places.  I told Kareen I was going to visit every store in town next week, not really, of course, just a few.  Well I actually did a few more things but I don't want to bore you any more.  Have a great day!



When our lawn mower broke and wouldn't run, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it fixed.  But, somehow I always had something else to take care of first, the truck, the car, playing golf - always something more important to me.
Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point.  When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors. I watched silently for a short time and then went into the house.  I was gone only a minute, and when I came out again I handed her a toothbrush. I said, "when you finish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep the driveway."....The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp.
Moral to the story: Marriage is a relationship in which one person is always right, and the other is the husband.


THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
A government big enough to give you everything you want,
is strong enough to take everything you have.

  1. Goodmorning Robin.......Love your tulips...I was so impressed in Spokane yesterday, tulips everywhere and a bright red. Very inviting!!! Not much going on here today...Larry is golfing and I need to do some housework, yuk!!! Why don't I make is sound as good as your letter telling about yours. Looks like a cool day ahead so will be inside anyway. Have a good day today and am looking forward to hearing about your shopping day on Monday - Love you, Diane

  3. Hello Grandma,
    The tulips look beautiful.
    I will have to remember that story when I get married; that is funny.
    We should go to the park next week.
    We love you
