but my wife took over that job at her request.

When I do happen to go in there now, I can't find anything because they changed everything around over the past few years.

I can walk there when the weather is nice...it's only a mile away.

Do you remember they used to make those made to order hamburgers that were encapsulated into a roll? Not like a sandwich...it was like the bread was baked completely around the meat.

I used to love those things!

I've worn nothing but socks and boxer briefs since 2020.

I can't go out in public like that.

Just shop Amazon. They almost always have what you're looking for at a very low price. Check them out and come breathe some fresh air.

Why care about your looks? If you’re clean and brushed your teeth you’re good to go.

Can't get anybody to hold it for me, anyhow.

Lying low and getting some reading done... tired of plowing and shoveling, as I know you are also. Heat wave today... above freezing for the first time in weeks!

More reading and less posting. Happily, no trampolines around here.
