Just don't ask me to do any work, because I don't have time to.

Trying to figure out which one of us, DW or myself, will be appearing as a suspect on "Forensic Files".

Could not begin to tell you what we do, but how did it get to after 4 already? We are never bored, I'll tell you that. It's a great life

I have taken up cloud counting, arranging beach chairs, and perfecting the art of making ice.

We've found a good balance between purpose and play. We play snowbird 5 days a week by sightseeing, reading, napping, eating at seaside restaurants, and enjoying life. The other 2 days a week we volunteer with Habitat for Humanity, and it gives purpose to the aforementioned 5. Life is good; camp on!

My dear departed Dad was very busy in his retirement. Someone asked him why he stayed so busy and his reply was that retirement didn't mean you did nothing, it meant you did what you d--m well pleased, and that's just what he did.

When asked what he did while camping, my Father in Law would respond, "You have to DO something?"

Like most, it takes all day and half the night to do nothing. The more I pratice at it, the better I get.

I am in the running for "Laziest Man on Earth" award, and believe me, I am sure working hard to get it. Just doesnt seem like there is enough time anymore to do anything.
