In a Rut

Monday, toiling hard earning a poor man's pay. Tuesday, doing my share running a lousy factory. Wednesday, coping with an ass-boss the whole day. Thursday, taking home a paycheck just worth a penny. Friday, drowning my sorrows with strangers as company. Saturday, no time for wifey, a bad hangover flattening me. Sunday, yet a good boy at heart down on my knees to pray!

Well, I hope your boss doesn't read this. LOL! Poor Wilfredo. You need to need to do something different during the week maybe. Like start a reading or writing club one evening a week. Well, not very exciting, but just an idea. You could collect pigeons : ) Do you have them there? I know, you could hold dancing lessons and teach people the samba! Just trying to help. Love, Shar
