Pretty quiet on here.

What’s up?

I was watching the news.... I know... I shouldn’t.
But this very posh, classy lady was on, talking with a reporter about how impoverished her family was when she was young.
I thought to myself....
Tell me about it lady.
When I was growing up, we were so poor
we’d go to Kentucky Fried Chicken,
To lick other people’s fingers.


Note: this isn’t true. I just heard it and thought it was ridiculously funny!

Hope everyone is well, and having a good summer. My vacation is right around the corner...
No phone, no email, no news...
And very little masking!

All I can say I was so poor I couldn't pay attention. LOL We had a hand pump in the kitchen. Guess it was classy in the day.But I grew up strong and a hard worker. Guess you can say I won anyway.
