agree with linda814. Getting a person on the phone would be comparible to winning the lottery and not having to pay taxes on the winnings.



for me: walking. Used to walk for hours. Now, I'm doing good to get around the block.

love those photos. We're going to have flowers blossoming. Someday. I hope. sigh

Molly looks so happy. She must like flowers too.

The POTW is; Darn- that used to be simple.

Ah, seems to apply to all of our latest and greatest "smart" gadgets... from TV's, phones, computers, appliances to even autos... while so many great features have been added to "help" us, they also can be confusing as heck to figure out at times... do I need all of 'em, ah NO... just give me a basic version please, 'cause this 'ole gray mare ain't what she used to be!

Great spring photos Jezer, love the flowers and of course our lovely lady, Molly, thanks for sharing!

Darn- that used to be simple.

That's for sure.. 20 years ago when I went to work, all I had to do is put on clothes, lock the door, take the car keys and leave the house.

Now.. Well, make sure computers are off, voice mail is on, alarm system is set, cell phone is charged, make sure I have my cell phone, the work laptop with me and my work ID badge.. along with a few more things I need at work..

Good morning Everyone! All of the above applies! I can relate to every one of 'em.

On a brighter note, how can one not smile at such a sweet face to greet us on a Monday morning? What a happy companion. Hugs to Molly and Poppy too.

Darn- that used to be simple.

With the arthritis in the hips, nail clipping, walking and bending over are just a few things that used to be simple.

Thanx for the Molly and Poppy pix.

Good peeve, Jezer. A common saying in my family is, "Nothin's easy" (often said with a heavy sigh). It's even more common now that we're getting up there in years.
