My hubby retired very early and I don’t think he was ready for me to! LOL!

It’s a wonder he didn’t have a list for me, but we just try to do our thing around the house and stay out from under each other’s feet. So far, so good.

Gnight all and I mean it man..

Lol!!

But it’s society’s fault!

:-D

[pax_et_bonum]

My husband actually said that he wants to take over the cooking!!!!!

I will never let him forget it!

[mylife]

I think of Flyer from time to time.
All of our old

“Please President-elect Trump....dump them!!! Tell them they cannot be trusted to tell the truth and will have to earn some respect”

Yes!

[pax_et_bonum]

I was just thinking of Flyer this evening.

I’ll always miss him.

Nite!

[luvie]

My hubby did that and he does an awesome job! He even bakes homemade bread and rolls....which accounts for my extra pounds LOL!

He’s a keeper, and I’ll bet your hubby will be too. Just let him pace himself so he doesn’t get it all done too soon and then ask “is that all there is?” :)

Good evening, radu...yesterday morning I got to see the HUGE full moon on my drive to work, and last evening, a little moon way high in the sky.

How are the fires around you? Getting a handle on them and cutting down on smoke?

[Kathy in Alaska]

The couple times it has snowed, it was followed with 40 degree days.

[pax_et_bonum]

Wow! I can’t wait for him to be the cook!

And don’t worry - he’ll never finish my honey-do list! :-D

[Kathy in Alaska]

Love the cartoon....”punch”, that’s 7 lives. LOL!

[radu]

Hey there Kathy.

The moon was a beauty, wasn’t it? I wish it hadn’t been so cold the other night because I would have enjoyed walking around in the moonlight for quite a while. It was so bright and made everything look so pretty and magical. But the three quick runs around the farm looking for Roxy was all I could handle. The blood’s still summer-thin. BRRRR!

The fires still burn. I guess they’ve gotten some under control but new ones flare up. On the Nashville news tonight they talked about one that’s burning near Tellico Pains and threatening the Trail of Tears. I got mad because they said it’s hard for crews to get in to fight it because gov’t. restrictions don’t allow heavy equipment in there. HELLO!!!!! What’s going to cause more damage???? Heavy equipment or a raging forest fire????!!!

Not too smoky around here today though we can smell smoke. We can see the mountains so it isn’t as thick as it was the other day. Praying for rain this weekend when the cold front comes through.
