I must say I love you all but don't have time to stay Lots of work and other things are standing in my way The law and I are on bad terms regarding the rare sheep Some dude is setting rules and he's depriving us of sleep I have to paint the house but the rain is pouring down It's July, and Queenie cold is wearing a golden crown I went fishing but no fish would ever bite my bait I just have set a meeting on a totally wrong date I wrote notes remembering all that needs to be done Suddenly they disappeared and OEPS, they were all gone My sander scared today the living daylights out of me While sanding, it went BLEEP, BLEEP, BLEEP and also POUF you see And then I couldn't find that matching cash register slip I had to buy a new one, wich pushed me down into a dip Good thing is though that it popped up, a few days later on And in the store they told me 'You'll get a refund Hon' I promised to send a poster to my salmon fishing club I didn't even think about it, or even have set it up Stupid mails from members who're ignoring all the rules Writing emails, lots of them, handing out the tools One and one is two they say, but to them it's really three Are you getting confused already, or is it only me Can you tell me how I used to work full time each day? I think I'm going back to work, retirement's too much work I'd say Like scattered leaves...my words will flow [This message has been edited by Titia Geertman (07-11-2004 09:58 PM).] |

Funny, yes. I know many retired people who think it is more work --  SusanHappiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |
