"Happy Days"

Happy Days are long gone for those, who have passed! 

Friday, March first, Marks another year that we won’t have to suffer from things caused from old age and the lack of money, not to mention all the bad things that have come out of Washington D.C.

It will make 65 years that we have been together. Who would have ever thought it possible that one of us wouldn’t have killed the other by now. When one is almost deaf and both can hardly move and can’t hear, what the other is saying. It all helps!

Now I have a question, Does this mean that the Honeymoon is over? When it comes down to one reason for the longevity of this union, It is all due to the kids and grand kids. Life changes are a lot easier to make when they are around and sharing their love. To the daughter in-laws, Thanks for the Grand kids, even when the Husbands didn’t know what was going on.

Life has had a large number of up’s and downs and the ship almost sank a couple of times, But the love boat never sinks as you should know. The Italians are building them so fast, they are way ahead of the game. In fact, they have even pulled the plug on a few of them, because the oceans  were getting a little crowed with all the love boats on them.

Right now, I am thinking  about a news report, where they are thinking of sending a married couple around Mars for a Look See and then return them to earth. If they aren’t nuts to start with, they will be before they get back to earth. They say the quarters will be small and they won’t be able to move around, so there may not even be a bed on board, I wonder what position they will use ?

The trip is going to last for sixteen months, what if she gets pregnant in the first half of the journey? Could this be another one of them Democratic ideas?  I never heard Obama’s name mentioned in the story, do you think!, Nah, they never would have thought about that, not any Republican, any way! , Could this be another Idea of the First Lady? One thing is certain, Michelle’s rear end would never fit inside that capsule. Sorry about that Michelle, I’ll have someone here punish me for that one, so you don’t have to send the Secret Service, a-looking for me! 

Sons and daughters and area grandchildren are all going to be here on Sunday to celebrate an Anniversary. No big dinner, I suggested cold beer, assorted crackers or chips and dips. No one thought much of that idea, Apparently, I was the only one.

Someone gave a speech, about keeping a closer eye on us old ones and a poem about people of age, was given. I had to wait my turn to get into the bath room. Some how the cat and the dog got in there with me, My stomach growled a little. The cat thought it was the dog and the dog thought it was the cat and that started the fight. I gave myself first aid for some scratches and a bite or two, Then I found a spot behind the couch and took a nap. The cat curled up with me.

I could hear every word spoken, they tried to tell a few jokes, but no one laughed, The police stopped by and left a citation or two, one for disturbing the piece and another for not having a permit for a circus! 

I came out of hibernation after the party broke up. Had  some cold chicken and a bun with butter, The seven-up was too warm to drink and the ice was all gone. Now, if I can find the Teddy Bear, I am ready for the second part of my nap.

You all have a nice day…..
