Off To Work At 6:00 AM; What?
I was in my Finnish Neighbours shed yesterday, waiting to jump out and surprise him. It’s was like a sauna in there. The cuckoo went off at 6:00 AM, not the clock, my bride. She said, “get dressed; it’s off … Continue reading

I Am Having A Mid-Week Crisis!

Tuesday And We Are Running Errands!
