If this is unemployment, I sure am glad to have a job. A little bit of procrastination here with all those almost finished projects. Very entertaining poem. Try not to work so hard.

Comment from Bill Schott
I think this is the funniest poem I have read all year. It is so cool that it acknowledges all the stuff there is to do from day to day and then -- a job too. It's a hoot to read. Nice job with this.

Hi Steve, This sounds like ma and pops place. I love all the different chores you get to do. Been there done half of them. Really a cute poem. Enjoyed reading this. Funny!! You work harder when you retire trying to catch up on all the things you couldn't do when you worked. Well done Linda xxoo

This is great fun.
I do admit, however, that after reading this, I do feel in the need of a little nap.
If you every post the full list ... I will need to sleep for a week. LOL
Hugs, d

Fantastic! Combines humor, vivid specific images, realism, and terrific writing. Wish now I had written one about the days of raising my three little ones alone!

Comment from Cedar
I really enjoyed reading this one. I think you wrote this one especially for me. I'm retired and have lived on a farm for nearly 70 years. All the things you have mentioned, I have done or still do on a daily basis. Great piece of writing. Bill

Thanks, Bill - you're right, many people do accomplish these tasks all the time - I take my hat off to them and you.

Whew! This poem is great. I fear that if I had to do all the things you mentioned, I would faint dead away. There are far too many "Honey dos." (Honey do this, honey do that.) You would probably not be nearly as busy.

Comment from AprilShower
I like this, kiwisteveh. I sounds a little like my list of things to so. The thing is I'm retired. My excuse is all this reading to promote my writings. I just can't get around to doing what needs done around here. LOL. Very well done.
You have quite a hard moniker to say.

Thanks, April.
Are you new here? If so, welcome to FanStory.
My name would habe been kiwisteve (on another site) but they already had one of those, so I tacked the H from my surname onto the end...

Comment from Black_Oxygen
This poetry is very well written. It made me exhausted
just thinking about all of these chores. The rhymes
are nicely placed and it is easy to read. It uses non-
confusing language making it clearly understood. Thank
You for your creation.
