Icon7 Is there anything better than waking up …

… stretching and staring at the ceiling while the kids are still asleep and appreciating all that’s wonderful in your life then looking over and seeing, to stare, at the most wonderful loyal and ageless beauty that is your partner, your life companion , through tough times and good times while growing old together and learning about how special a shared life can be? Everyone’s Rolex is special.

I expected the rejoinder to the title of your thread to be, "and find the bed is dry".

Have a good Friday everyone.

Well when I wake up each morning and look at my bedside watch and can see the time it proves I am still alive. The most precious thing we have is life, yet it has absolutely no trade-in value. So for me at the moment the most important thing is simply this, that everyday I beat my own previous record for number of consecutive days I've stayed alive.

Schnookums: If you’re reading this Jocke and Paul and Banksy and Steve make me do it. It’s all a lark. A hullabaloo. You’re my #1 model in my Rolex reference guide. Honest. Swear.

Jocke, Paul, and Banksy, don't think Chewy qualifies for our Traveling Wilbury. Was soooooo close.

If it is anything like this morning....

Sounds good to me.

No complaints. Nope, none at all.

It's a character thing. I tend to lead (dominate?) via agility, natural talent, and multi-dimensional thinking.

Keep Up!!!

PS............

Chewy, you're not a Wilbury............

You're a true loyal OG.

You ARE part of the TRF Wu.....
