Do something that does not benefit you in any way...something that is just to brighten someone else's day. An unspoken act of kindness will do.
well DING DIN DING
I have an idea, but will not tell... Will come in the following month.
A rittle for now... of whom can reveal? :

Through the tall grass and under a limb of a tree, lies the answer to this rittle that you see. A house is warm as plants are green, I guess you'll find out next time, you see me..

We had one daughter.... She was the teenager "From Hell".... Thankfully she got married to a great Son in Law.... they have a 13 year old son and a 9 year old daughter..... great grandkids..... but now she has deemed herself as the ultimate expert on how to raise the Perfect Teenager..... I just do my best "Archie Bunker" impression and go ... " Geeeze" and go watch the fish....

Sissy..... Sarah and I married 42 years ago, I was 19, Sarah was 17, To say the least, I was not marriage material, Sarah was a Adult at 17..... Took me till about 25 before I even showed signs of becoming an Adult..... Thank God she loved me for some reason.... But the story is..... My Father In Law was not a huge fan of mine When we first married, but years later after my daughter go married and we were eating dinner at my in-laws house and I got to complaining about something my son in law was doing that I didn't like..... My father in law ( in his 80's) got to laughing, and said " What goes around comes around".... All I could do was smile and tell him he was right

I haven't been married as long as some here. But we have been married 30 years. I met her at a country western dance club. I asked her to dance. I was messed up to the gills. Her family was there & I don't think they were very impressed with me.

I asked her out the next night & she wouldn't even let me pick her up. She said she would meet me at the same dancehall. I asked her to marry me & we have been together for over 30 years. Love at first sight is a very real thing. Now her parents think I hung the moon. Ain't live crazy..
