Happy anniversary, Mom and Dad.

Slow down for three minutes to read this. It is so worth it.

A group of professional people posed the question “What does love mean?” to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds.

The answers they got were broader, deeper, and more profound than anyone could have ever imagined!

When my grandmother got arthritis , she couldn’t bend over and paint her toenails anymore.. So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That’s love.

And the final one:

The winner was a four year old child whose next door neighbor was an elderly gentleman who had recently lost his wife.
Upon seeing the man cry, the little boy went into the old gentleman’s yard , climbed onto his lap, and just sat there.

When his Mother asked what he had said to the neighbor, the little boy said ‘Nothing , I just helped him cry’

This will make you laugh does this remind you of your friends.

I was diagnosed with A. A. A. D. D. – Age-Activated Attention Deficit Disorder. This is how it Manifests: I decide to water my garden. As I turn on the hose in the driveway, I look over at my car and decide my car needs washing.

As I start toward the garage, I notice that there is mail on the porch table that I brought up from the mailbox earlier. I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car. I lay my car keys down on the table, put the junk mail in the garbage can under the table, and notice that the can is full. So, I decide to put the bills back on the table and take out the garbage first. B

ut then I think, since I’m going to be near the mailbox, when I take out the garbage anyway, I may as well pay the bills first. I take my checkbook off the table, and see that there is only 1 check left. My extra checks are in my desk in the study, so I go inside the house to my desk where I find the can of Coke that I had been drinking.

I’m going to look for my checks, but first I need to push the Coke aside so that I don’t accidentally knock it over. I see that the Coke is getting warm, and I decide I should put it in the refrigerator to keep it cold.

As I head toward the kitchen with the Coke, a vase of flowers on the counter catches my eye–they need to be watered. I set the Coke down on the counter, and I discover my reading glasses that I’ve been searching for all morning.

I decide I better put them back on my desk,but first I’m going to water the flowers. I set the glasses back down on the counter, fill a container with water and suddenly I spot the TV remote. Someone left it on the kitchen table.

I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV, I will be looking for the remote, but I won’t remember that it’s on the kitchen table, so I decide to put it back in the den where it belongs, but first I’ll water the flowers.

I pour some water in the flowers, but quite a bit of it spills on the floor. So, I set the remote back down on the table, get some towels and wipe up the spill. Then, I head down the hall trying to remember what I was planning to do. At the end of the day:

—-the car isn’t washed,
—-the bills aren’t paid,
—-there is a warm can of Coke sitting on the counter,
—-the flowers don’t have enough water,
—-there is still only 1 check in my check book,
—-I can’t find the remote,
—-I can’t find my glasses,
—-and I don’t remember what I did with the car keys.

Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today, I’m really baffled because I know I was busy all day long, and I’m really tired. Don’t laugh — If this isn’t you yet, Your day is coming!

GROWING OLDER IS MANDATORY. GROWING UP IS OPTIONAL.

LAUGHING AT YOURSELF IS THERAPEUTIC.

P.S. I just remembered.
I LEFT THE WATER RUNNING IN THE DRIVEWAY

Making a big assumption that Trump will win the GOP nomination, but in an effort to try to reduce his “unfavorables” and win the election, I would propose that, if Trump is nominated, he immediately announce his Cabinet (and their “charging orders”):

My  Trump Dream Cabinet:

Vice President: Carly Fiorina (tighten US Cyberspace Vulnerability and Promote Energy Independence).

Secretary of State: Ted Cruz (dismantle Iran deal,restore,strong ties to Israel,reinforce our commitments to Egypt, Ukraine, Poland, etc).

AG: Trey Gowdy( clean out the rats in his department).

Secretary of Health Education & Welfare:Dr Carson(replace ObamaCare with his and Scott Walker’s Plan).

Secretary of Labor: Scott Walker (clean house, Immigration reform).

Secretary of Defense: Mike Huckabee.

Secretary of Treasury & Commissioner OF IRS: Ran Paul(abolish IRS Code with simple Flatter Tax).

Marco Rubio would stay in the Senate and prepare for the 2020 election because I think he’s a good man.

I would also create a new cabinet post called “Secretary without Portfolio” and nominate Gov. Wolfe(just to get him out of Pennsylvania).
