No Rabbits To Wrangle

The Rabbit Wrangler finds himself without any rabbits to wrangle for the upcoming year.  His breeding stock was getting long in the tooth and finally both went on to the great carrot patch in the sky.  Elvis was the last to go and passed away late last week.  It wasn't the cold but old age finally caught up with him.  If there was a rabbit obit it would have said he was preceded by his long time partner, Angle who passed away from natural causes during the Fall.  I don't know what natural causes are, but at least it sounds good.  At this point I don't think there are any plans to get back in the wrangling business any time soon.

I hope Elvis didn't catch what the Nurse and I have been fighting for the last week or so.  She got, and then passed to me, the respiratory cold (flu?) that's been going around.  It seems to have hit me harder than her.  Sleeping has been a problem.   Every time I lay down I start to cough.  I've very adapt at sleeping in the recliner covered  with a heavy blanket.  It's not as hard as it sounds since I've had a lot of practice watching the back of my eye lids while watching TV.  But I'm finally starting to make my way back to the bed for short periods of time.  I hope to be back to normal by the end of the week.

Last Thursday was another big day for the Lunch Group.  Seems like we get at least 12 people every week.  As always there was a lot of lively discussion and a lot seemed centered on golf.  People are starting to get the itch after all this cold weather.  I know OTR would rather see warmer weather.  I saw him over the weekend and know he had numerous problems because of the weather.  T Squared is always amazing me.  If you want to know how to put your cars in the garage you should talk to him.  I'm sure he 'd be glad to give you pointers (ask his wife).

Yak at ya later,
