I like the sentiment. I don't know any background of the pic, and it don't matter, but it does resemble our house we lived in when we were in S. Carolina in the early 80s. From right to left, was the door to the garage, the stove, the fridge, and the washer. The dryer was across from the washer, in the pantry. I put down the linoleum floor myself. Finally I moved the washer and dryer into the garage, on the opposite side of the kitchen wall. Our bikes have always had tires, however.

My rusty old beater car has great tires.

It all depends on how a guy wants to spend his money, I guess. If he has money.

My A1C was 6.2. That's much better than I deserve.
Holidays are historically unkind to my A1C.
It's nothing short of a miracle.

My friends, he's giving me back my withered years.

I'm not capable of being thankful enough for any of this.
