My wife: Give me the keys and I'll turn on the car. Me: How do you do that? Tickle its tailpipe? #marriage

I’m 60 today. I remember when that seemed like old old age. Not so much any more. #birthday

Hello my lovely friend. I’m doing just fine. Been writing some but also doing a lot of proofreading and/or copy editing. How are you?

My dog loves doing it. Every once in a while she gets carried away but I just say “gentle” and she obeys that command.

I’m so sorry to hear that you’re feeling down. As for being cut out for things you’re both a wonderful cook and writer. I know that probably doesn’t help right now but I appreciate your talents and creativity. In addition you’re a wonderful friend and that means a lot.

Depends on the area but the pay is always pretty good. Plus it’s a City job meaning benefits and retirement.

I’m frustrated but good. We were supposed to get a new dishwasher installed yesterday but they never showed up. Now we have to wait until the 15th. At least we have a window of time…7am-7pm. But I am proofreading a book for an author friend so that’s fun. How are you doing?

You’re okay on this one. No beaver butt involved. It’s made with a plant based oil like safflower or coconut oil and natural chemicals found in plants.

If they said 2 then it’s 2 and if they show up that much earlier I might not even answer the door.

Do you mind sharing who it is? Even as a DM. I’m looking for my next read and I figure if you like them so much then I likely will.

Trump has a peace plan with Iran? You know what this is all about? It’s not about oil or an Epstein distraction…well, not just those things. He wants to claim he brought peace to the Middle East as a way for him to get the Noble Peace Prize. #Iran

This was Ms. Liz or LizButt. We were her retirement home. She moved in with us when she was 14 and passed peacefully at 16. She was the best. But a card cheat like no other.
Photo of a man in his mid 30s sitting at a table holding a hand of cards. Sitting on the table between his arms is a brown orange and white calico cat who appears to be studying the man’s cards.
