My uncle Jeff is finally retiring from his job at the bank next month. Aunt Margie is planning a big retirement party for him. I know how much he loves cao cigars, so I’m planning on ordering him a few from a website that I found that sells them. And I think that I’ll give him a gift card from the website so he can buy more down the road, too. After all of the aggravation that he’s been through working for that bank, he deserves a good cigar!
The last twenty four hours have not been good ones for my wife. On her way home from work last night she got a flat tire. She called AAA and they came out and changed the tire for her. Thank goodness for AAA! It was late at night and I sure didn’t want to have to deal with it! So this morning I dealt with getting a new tire for the car (the old tire was ruined) and she took our other car to work today. But on the way to work, THAT car had a flat tire! One thing is for sure – I’m not letting her near my truck anytime soon!
My wife likes to bemoan the fact that as men age, they look distinguished, while women simply look old. I’ve noticed that every month she has at least two different new wrinkle creams on the bathroom vanity! I think that she still looks terrific, but I can tell that she is starting to fight the unbeatable foe – old age. My father used to always say “Getting old is not for sissies!” Truer words were never spoken!
