I love living with a "rentable" brain. Dan knows all the stuff I don't. He shares easily but not insistantly. I have to take notes on everything and ask him the stuff he knows around here. At 65, he's as old as I am at 80. Someday I might have to do his work as well as my own. I don't know the different jobs the different tractors do, couldn't even start one, what kind of maintenance they need, or how to reset the furnace for the seasons. I wouldn't know who to hire to replace a shingle that comes off in a storm, (he put them all up there) or change out an a/c, or man-splain to a man not to mess with the landlord, how to change one of those new-fangled fuses.... He knows every wire and screw and electron in the place. I don't know who to order the best hay from. He knows the horses like I know the cats. I value every moment. As much as I know of what I know, he knows the rest right down to atomic level. Never loved anybody like I love him. Its "moochul" ))) so life is VEry good.

I have a lot of answers; not all of them correct. I wouldn’t mind being smacked with a trout, at least I’d know someone was listening!
