IT’S CHRISTMAS DAY 2022! Just a while ago Duane was taking Tina (our Terrier) outside. He’s the cook! Thank God! So I told him: “If you want me to take Tina outside today, just let me know.” He always does when he’s home. Remember: it’s a Minnesota Christmas Day and five below!

I was just making the bed and I was thinking about what colour I would want (with Duane’s approval too, of course!) for my next bedspread… Women: I have chosen to never have a frilly, only feminine-looking bedroom that a man wouldn’t appreciate to call his!
