Great Shares From: Anne Farrell Anderson!


Rose, 

You are the best!  70??????? Hope all is well with you.  We are being kept very busy with this house we moved into last September.  Sold our 2-story for a single.  It needed work inside and out.  We have been working on the out. 

I’ll tell you a brief story.  The yard has a enormous Canary Date Palm.  They need water.  It was not watered properly so it sent roots into the grass area on one side of the yard killing the grass.  Jack decided to dig up the dead grass.  

It was a Sunday morning and I had to run a couple of errands. When I was leaving I went to tell Jack.  He was bent over with this short handled pick or whatever digging up the grass.  

He has a back problem so I told him to stop it isn’t worth it, we will have Jesus, our gardner, do it.  He told me no that he can do it. So, I went on my way.  

About 30 minutes later I get a text, “need beer”. I didn’t answer because I didn’t want to be pressured into coming home.  I had things to do.  

Another 30 min went by and another text, “union rules state 30 minute beer break”. I didn’t respond. A few minutes later another text, “forget the beer, bring a casket”.  

Hilarious!!!  So, I got him his beer and went home.  We are hoping to go to the next brunch.  What are your plans?  Oh, and my birthdate is the 8th.  LOL  

Thanks for all you do.  You have kept us together.


Anne
