Working Eight To Four

Working Eight To Four

My Linda just completed, her fourth week on her new job;
She works weekdays for eight hours, each one, I miss my throb!
I feel bad she had to unretire, but our coffers were very low;
And we needed extra income, to assure us that they’d grow!
.
Our sales of art on EBay, are a fraction of what they used to be;
We used to need not worry, depending on income earned by me!
We were together all the time then, free to do whatever that we pleased;
But now, we are separated, so that our finances get appeased!
.
She comes home and is so tired, I have a nice dinner for us to eat;
We watch TV for a couple hours, then Mr. Sandman does she greet!
It’s a tough grind for her to handle, but she does it with aplomb;
As they say in modern lingo, My Linda is β€œthe bomb”!
.
.
For eight hours a day
My Linda toils to earn bucks
Our new breadwinner

Hello Larry...

I know people who are worried about their future because, they didn't plan on it...

They over spend and wonder what happened?

Having to take from their 401k early but, when they were spending itΒ  they were having a fabulous time...

Thinking I lead a very boring life yet, by living a simple life and everything is paid for, it's actually kind of a shame because, I can feel guilty because, I can pick and choose when I want to make some money...

​​​​Now, I have to get better at not waiting to the last minute to pack and go on vacation...

Too bad you aren't nearby because, I would draft you with helping me wrap...

?

Great dedication and write!

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...

Dear sparrowsong,

We were very solid, until ten years ago, when something fell through, and we lost $160,000.Β  That started a snowball effect, which included the art business not bringing in a third of what it used to.
But here we are, rebuilding again, with smiles on our faces.
Sorry, but the only "rapping" I do, is when I sing a song.

Love,
Larry xxx
