Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for December 16, 2018

Sometimes I wish I had a fireplace. That’s the only thing I’m missing.

“He who expecteth nothing ain’t gonna be deceived.”

How Zen is that???

Very true.

Here’s a Christmas wish that all couples enter older age gracefully and content.

Being content with what you have – best gift of all.

That’s it exactly as we discovered too. Beautifully said.

Happiness is a butterfly. You’ll never catch it if you chase it, but be still and it may come to you.

We have gas logs and we love them! They provide warmth and atmosphere and no messy cleanup. Now that I’m old and creaky that’s a big plus. Merry Christmas Arlo and Janis. Looks like you already have everything you need!

Get some.

Jack Frost roasting on an open fire…. Chestnuts nipping at your nose….

I’m still hoping we’ll get to see how the “kids” are doing before Christmas is over. I hope A&J haven’t totally forgotten that they exist.

If you have a Apple TV you can get a app for a fireplace

I’m missing a wife or significant other. We can’t get all that we wish for.

What happen to the son, Gene, daughter-in-law (Mary Lou) and the little one Mag (granddaughter)??And what happen to the daughter-in-law’s father (Gus), the one who sold Arlo the boat?Not only is it Christmas and they Arlo and Janix should be thinking of the Son and his family but the strip for the last year has just dropped them (the Son’s family). Why??
