We like watching the Bachelor and the Bachelorette, too! My Mommie says the time she spends volunteering at the cat rescue shelter makes her feel real happy inside.

Susan Cook said...

I guess you guys want to retire - lol! Gerard must be happy with how well all the Boston sports teams are doing right now.

I would love to retire too. I also would love to get out of the city as well. I can't stand it in the city.

Karen & Gerard Zemek said...

Daisy--I look forward to volunteering at an animal shelter one day--just love petting the cats and dogs.

Sue & Jodi--Yes, we'd like to retire tomorrow but we need to eat and keep up our house and pay for our TV and computer. I have 7 years and Gerard has 6 to go yet. He is THRILLED with the Bruins and Celtics.

Jodi--I like living in the city with things so close by. I'm not much for traveling or long drives.

Fun, I'm going to grab this to post next week.

Karen,
That was so much fun and fun to see where you and Gerard were the same and where you differed.
Retired life is good :-)
