Mary is always stealing my t-shirts and sweaters… But if I take one of her dresses, suddenly, “we need to talk.”<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

It was eleven months today since I asked Mary out for dinner, mid-pandemic!\u00a0 It’s been a whirlwind ever since! So I have been telling people Mary, and I have known each other for seventeen years!\u00a0 Well, it was probably longer than that, but Mary found an old roster from Starlighters dated 2004, and sure enough, Mary and I were right there on the list!\u00a0 We think we knew each other even earlier than that, but we lost the paper trail!<\/p>\n

It was Monday, and Mary had a half-day, so she went to work (to afford to keep me in the lifestyle to which I have become accustomed), and I went to Casa Valencia with Scout the Wonder Dog.\u00a0 We made a short detour by the glass company to pick some an order we had made.<\/p>\n

Returning to Casa Valencia, I piddled around the house, getting ready for the 6th, Mary’s first move into the new house.\u00a0 Because of my cold, I decided to take it easy.<\/p>\n

Around noon, Mary called from the car and said she would fix lunch at home because she attempted to clean out the freezer and refrigerator.\u00a0 I told her, “The person who invented knock-knock jokes should get a no bell prize,” and she almost changed her mind and went back to work!\u00a0 What it something I said?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Mary and I keep working on our closets and then never seem to get empty!<\/p><\/div>\n

We called Connor to come and help as he has offered many times.\u00a0 He headed to the attic and brought down about half of the holiday decorations; then, it got too hot.<\/p>\n

We decided to go to Rockwells for dinner with Connor.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

We kept Mary giggling the entire time!<\/p><\/div>\n

Connor saw the meatball sandwich, and that instantly made up his mind!\u00a0 I told Connor, “I have an inferiority complex, but it\u2019s not a very good one.” I then apologized, and we went on with dinner.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Meatball sandwich for the gentleman!<\/p><\/div>\n

After dinner, we went to our house, got a case of wine, and headed to Jan’s to visit for a while.\u00a0 We were supposed to have been working, but we needed a break!\u00a0 On our way home, the rabbits were out in force.\u00a0 They were all over.\u00a0 We lit him up, and he stopped dead in his tracks.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Where Is Scout the Wonder Dog when you need him?<\/p><\/div>\n

By the time we got home, I had horizontal as I caught up on the several days of no sleep due to the head cold.\u00a0 Tonight I feel like I am going to live.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
