Retired but not tired

My husband Steve has retired after working for 35 years.  People ask him what he's going to do all day.  His answer? He says now he's going to find out what I do all day.  
(I had to tell George Clooney he can't come over anymore.)


It's true that I never seem to get much accomplished during the day.  One of Steve's first days home he had worked out at the gym, went grocery shopping, chipped ice off the driveway, sorted through emails, paid the bills, walked the dog, and then said, "Ok, now what do I do?"  It was 9 a.m.


Golf season is on it's way!


CONGRATULATIONS, STEVE!!!  THANKS FOR ALL THE YEARS OF HARD WORK.  WELCOME HOME!!!
