I’m Pretty Sure I’d Rather Have My Wife.

The Detroit Lions started the season with their first loss. Today, they beat the Bears 52-21.  They had a fantastic season last year and fans like me hope to have another one. I enjoy watching football and I have always been a Lions fan.  However, I suppose I would be in the minority in a … Continue reading I’m Pretty Sure I’d Rather Have My Wife. →

A COVID Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving 2020 is now a memory. It was very different from Thanksgivings of the past, to be sure. It was, however, a very wonderful day! Thursday - Turkey Day Ella was up bright and early! I had to put the turkey in water to finish thawing it. We got her dressed and ready for her … Continue reading A COVID Thanksgiving →

Place your bets …

"Show me a gambler and I'll show you a loser" - Mario Puzo This is the first year I didn't have any "squares" for the Super Bowl.  I am sure I could have purchased some.  Some friends on Facebook posted that they had some available, the issue was getting them the money (let alone the … Continue reading Place your bets … →
