Doing Nothing

While political folks dilly dally
Job growth winds down a deep valley
Employers won't hire
Old folks can't retire
The poor house could be our finale

Laura Breidenthal Date: 8/20/2012 10:45:00 PM I was captured by the title because I find myself "doing nothing" quite often - and doing it quite well, thank you very much. But THIS is truly doing NOTHING! Thanks for the reminder. This world is crazy sometimes. Love your writes. Always, Laura Login to Reply
