Ahhhh, this is the life. Mom and dad have it all wrong. Leisure beats work any day of the week. But who would feed, clothe and house us if they followed that philosophy? My grandparents.
When our father died, some forty years after our mother, I said to my older brother that I felt like the ducks on the wheel in the shooting gallery — now WE’re up. Now he’s gone, too. I think that’s why I love Red and Rover so much.
My hubby retired at the end of this March. I think we would kill each other if we were together that much, so I will keep working, love my job and the folks I work with, so unless something changes, I’ll keep working a couple more years.

Where there’s a Will, there’s a way, I guess!

Grandparents are great for younger kids and animals. They tug at the heart so much – ours are the same way too.

Rover looks adorable in the last panel.
