Changes

I’ve noticed that since I retired I have all the extra duties that we have discussed before - mopping, shopping and all that other stuff. But, I have also noticed that my financial controller has stopped doing things she used to do. Like running the weed trimmer. She says that if I can find a trimmer like the one she had thirty years ago, she will resume that job. She knows they quit making that model 20 years ago.

And, she has all but stopped cooking. It used to be that she would wup up some fried pork chops and smashed taters. Not anymore. The closest thing I get to home cooking now is what ever take out is closest to the house.

She makes the best pecan pie in the world. Or, she used to. She has now delegated that job to our daughter. That means, twice per year - Thanksgiving and Christmas - we have pie.

I am starting to think that this is all part of some evil plan to have me where she wants me when she retires. Not going to happen!

Gotta go. I have to vacuum and mop before she gets home.

I wonder. How do you make a pecan pie?
