Last Season of Labor



retirement: You get up in the morning with nothing to do, and go to bed at night having only done half of it.





my original post for , " Last Season of Labor " was about the road traveled and my dreams and hopes for the future but all week long my friends have been busting my chops and passing on jokes about retirement. 

So I decided on the lighter side instead. besides who wants to listen to my craziness anyway's. 

enjoy ! 



Three elderly men, Eddie, Jenkin and Martin go to the doctor's for their memory test.  It's a miracle they remembered the appointment!  Anyway, the doctor begins by asking Eddie, "What is five times five?"
"191," is his reply.
The doctor rolls his eyes and looks up at the ceiling, and says to Jenkin, "It's your turn. What is five times five?"
"Wednesday," replies Jenkin's.
The doctor shakes his head sadly, then asks the third man, "Okay Martin it's your turn. What's five times five?"
"Twenty five," says Martin.
"That's great!" says the doctor. "How did you get your answer?"
"Easy," says Martin, "just subtract 191 from Wednesday."

... my way, life and death .



whether it’s thirty years from now or tomorrow I plan on enjoying my death as I do my life. they are after all, one of the same. I’m going to leave as I arrived, kicking and screaming.



                                                 as the screaming spring
                                       and everything in between
                                       winter says hello




there is an old saying, “Everyone wants to go to heaven but no one wants to die “ I have wondered if this was born from a lack of faith, something I never lacked. and what if I’m wrong? well hell, in the words of Sinatra, “I did it my way”, life and death.
