I'm Back. When I told my friends I was going to retire some of them said I would be bored in a year. Well It is 2 1/2 years and I'm not bored yet. So there. Anyhow that's my excuse for not writing. My sister in law is in Florida. It was 37 degrees there last night. She went down there to get warm. I guess she didn't go far enough South. Midnight, the namesake of this story has been busy sleeping and stalking imaginary creatures. He actually found and tracked a bug last night. He kinda of lays down and points at it. He used to bat it with his paw when he was younger. Now he sits and stares until he gets all attention. It showed here on Tuesday (about 4 inches). When I lived in Colorado that amount would be called a light dusting. I'm starting to plan a trip to Argentina to visit my oldest daughter. Of course she is still here until Feb 28, but I think there is a law that you must see you daughter at least every 6 months or you lose your status as a dad. Same Idea as passports and all. Hopefully she will be able to come home at Christmas and renew my status as Dad. Last Christmas she was in Argentina, Christmas didn't seem like Christmas last year. Maybe I shouldn't say that since she may read this and it sounded mushy.
Anyhow, midnight just came in and meowed at me and turned around and left. Not sure what he wanted. Usually he comes in to get petted and then he leaves. I guess he saw I was typing.
I was thinking that I heard once that as you get older you learn more and become wiser. But I also read that as you get older you tend to forget more. Maybe if you don't learn to much you will have less to forget.
Now I know where I went wrong. Actually I like learning and teaching. I guess that is why I went into education. I like reading, my eyes tend to not allow as much as I would like but I have a magnifying glass so I can read the fine print. Just seems the fine print is getting smaller everyday.
Well time to go and making chicken noises at my daughter. Maybe she will think I'm going wacko and decide not to go to Argentina and stay here to take care of me in my old age.
Naw, she is to smart. She will see right through my plan. Well it is fun to annoy her.
OK I wrote enough.

Aha! Now I know of your crazy plot to foil my move to Argentina! It'll be nice to have you and Deb visit - I'm sure I'll be missing the chicken sounds by August (did I really just say that?!).
YOU made the Chicken Noises? I thought it was Midnight! Next you will tell me Midnight is not the one farting!
