LOL Christine ... the house is 35 years old, small 2 br 2 bath, with mis-matched everything, I should concentrate on the inside but always say that it can wait. We've been in the house 34 years and the inside could use some major updating. In my younger years I was a neat freak, worked long hours at my job and still would stay up until 2:00 a.m. cleaning and scrubbing floors if company was coming! Geesh, I wonder what ever happened to those days? Now I don't find a lot of time to do housework, I'm always out playing in the dirt. Nowadays if the vacuuming gets done, it's my sweet husband who does it for me!

I used to have a fantastic looking yard too, with well manicured flower beds everywhere, but as I've gotten older I can't handle the heat for working in the yard all day long anymore. I do have a riding mower and do the mowing, edging and trimming but that even takes me a lot longer than it used to, I have to take a lot of breaks. We had a friend who used to say "Getting old isn't for Sissie's", I think I'm becoming a sissy.

I found this sign at some clearance a few years ago and bought two, gave one away and the other one kind of fits me, so I kept it ...
