Relaxed and "Chillin"

There are plenty of people who might agree with Titus the guinea pig but having experienced the life of long naps lately (due to health issues) I have to disagree.

I like working. Like the farmer pictured above, a good days work can make me smile. Most of all I like a sense of accomplishment.

God made us to work. The first job he assigned to anyone was for Adam to tend his (Gods) garden in a place called Eden. What a GREAT job... keeping in mind that at that time everything was perfect. No weeding, no biting insects, no sunscreen needed. And then of course Adam and Eve blew it and now we all toil away with the many weeds in our of lives. Still, weeds and biting insects aside I feel it a privilege to work. As you go through your day today I hope you are seeing it as a privilege to serve others.

Do you enjoy the cartoons written by my son (Timmothy N. Timm) which I use as a springboard to write my daily posts? His strip, Titus & Philemon, has run in two newspapers for years as well as being printed in my blog every day. Titus & Philemon (pronounced Phi - Lee -Man) are guinea pigs. Their owner is Joe. Timmothy has never repeated a joke/comic strip in the 12 years he has been writing it. He has never copied another strip, such as Peanuts or Garfield. You can follow Timmothy on FB as Titus & Philemon and you can also check him out on Instagram as Instagram.com/titus and philemon/ .For Timmothy's website type timmtimmothy.com into your browser. I tried to put it in a link here but it refuses to work. Do NOT put anything in front of timmtimmothy.com or it will not work.

Good morning, Bob... I'm at a stage of life where I'd like to serve less and be served more! :)

So true Will Hamm . Farming is a very expensive endeavor these days and having large families to help tend the farm is also a thing of the past.

Good Afternoon Bob "RealMan" Timm 

There is something to taking naps with a fan creating a nice flowing breeze. I appreciate farmers and try to purchase as much as our budget allows from these local endeavors. Nothing like local farming products knowing the food is not GMO and filled with chemicals

We always have a fan running in our bedroom just for the white noise Doug Dawes . I'm not a big fan of our local farmers market as it's like going into hand to hand combat with a gray haired army of little women who love to throw their elbows and stand their ground as they discuss social matters with the vendors. It's hell out there I tell you.

Hi Bob- we just came in from running an errand.  It's 94 with a feels like temperature of 107. That always wipes me out.

I always loved the heat Kathy Streib until this summer and it hasn't even been a hot summer for us in ND. I guess I've turned into a North Dakotan.. finally. 107 would defiantly wipe me out.

Well Bob Yes I like to serve people - always have.  And I like being served as well.  As for the heat, well my goal is to stay inside as much as possible were it's cool and not out in the PHX heat. And the good news is this is not a hot year in comparison to other years.  Take a nap if you need it.  I sure had to for awhile and it's kind of nice but it is very weird for me to do so. I'm like you, a busy beaver always getting something accomplished.

The kind of heat you get would certainly keep me indoors and napping as well Anna "Banana" Kruchten . I have a hard time working at home so it's off to the office for me to be productive.

That toon made me smile.  As it turns out I have a tower fan that looks like the one Timmothy drew.  Sacramento has broken the record for the most days over 100 degrees in July.  We have had 24.  I can be found couch surfing in front of that breeze creator most afternoons.

That would be too much for me Myrl Jeffcoat . I would consider moving to a hotel for a month with a nice climate controlled pool area. 😊
