Being retired, this year, I see J doing some fish frying on his team's night. When he was working, he'd go to the hall directly from work. Which meant he would be too late for frying, which is what he loves to do. His job was usually serving or doing carry outs. We'll be in line this coming Friday night. Not sure if we'll stay there or bring carry outs home. <BR/><BR/>I can't believe how this year has flown by!<BR/><BR/>PatPAThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12891387278850772808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6029086259913464331.post-45815678860671377592008-02-06T13:44:00.000-05:002008-02-06T13:44:00.000-05:00I don't do well with giving up but I took a differ...I don't do well with giving up but I took a different route this year: I am giving up my personal time to work with an adult reading program at the library.

To look, listen and praise for all the little things that can so easily be passed by.
