'Tis the month after Christmas and the kids are still wired,
But it doesn't faze me, because I'm retired.
They've eaten me out of my house and my home,
And returned to their homes, leaving us all alone.
Their ma, with her cartoons, and her internet blog,
Is keeping her siblings amazed and agog.
But I have been working for so many years,
That to be without work is now building my fears.
So I'll put on my slippers, and sit down in my chair,
Then I'll grab my remote, to see what's on the air.
Be it sitcoms or qame shows, commercials or soaps,
I'll watch 'cause my sanity is right on the ropes.
So with reruns and movies to hold fast my gaze,
I will sit and just stare 'til my eyes feel ablaze.
Then perhaps I will settle for a long winter's nap,
While I sit and I pet the cat on my lap.
So while ringing my doorbell, you make a big clatter,
If I don't jump up to see what is the matter,
Don't worry too much, through the windows don't peep,
With slippers and remote, I've fallen asleep

The cat looks like she's thinking about changing the channel while you are asleep. :0)
Inklings would tell me to bite me tongue, but I think you should buy a horse!
I can go horse back riding anytime I want too. I do good teaching young horses to be better horses so I don't have trouble getting a horse to ride. The problem right now is that it is way too cold to be messing around with horses.
Delirious, you are going to be in big trouble with me if he buys a horse!
I think it'd be great to have a horse. Just think of how much fun the grandkids could have on the few days a year that they come to visit. Ha!
I agree with Minnow and Delirious.

LOL cute! :)
Well see it's this way - we have no place to keep a horse, no money to feed a horse, no money to take the horse to a vet, no trailer to pull the horse to where Dee Ice would want to start riding, and I know from experience that I would have to help shovel the horse's output and take care of it.
So all of you who want us to have a horse, you move out here, you get a horse, and then you can let Dee Ice ride it. :0)
Lol Love the picture of Kinsey on your lap
