    I'm glad I didn't wait, but regret I waited as long as I did (age 50)... Even if it looks more like this, than the toys you show. 20190531_072832.jpeg 20201227_170933.jpeg 20200914_182905.jpeg

    I've been thinking about getting this for my tractor.

    Then I could do my driveway and easement with one or two passes. One in the front and one in the back.

    If things get real bad....

    Snow blades are fast but if you have the room to BLOW snow, I prefer it.

    So my youngest just got a new job after she received an offer from the company she use to work for last week.

    She is off to Florida. I'm proud of her as she has been through a lot in the past year.

    Sad because I won't get to see my new grandson on a regular basis.

    A triple.
    My middle daughter got married out of high school to her childhood sweetheart. He joined the Marines and they ended up stationed in Hawaii. A bit over a year later she delivered my first grandchild, a granddaughter. Very tough to not be able to see them very often. She is a pistol just like her mother.
    His enlistment time was up this year, and he re-upped again. He applied for a recruiting position and as luck would have it, landed one about 2 hours north of where we live. Going to be much easier to go see them now, very excited. They are moving back this January.
    This Christmas we had a gift from them arrive by mail. When we opened it we found a Captain America Onesie inside, along with an ultrasound...we have a grandson on the way, due very near my birthday.
    My oldest just delivered a healthy granddaughter right before Christmas too.
    I'm going to be busy, it takes a lot of effort to spoil 3 grandchildren rotten.

    Oldest has a part time job delivering pizza. There is an older gentleman that works there who has a daughter with autism. One of the local news channels partnered with the Girls Scouts to help him. He showed up to deliver the pizza to the scouts and they tipped him $1000. Makes me happy.
