I have to say that Robbie is hilarious. He likes to make a serious mess while he bathes, but a robin can never be too clean I suppose! lol At least he is comfortable with you nearby and isn't scared of you and the second wife. lol

That little girl sounds like Verruca Salt from Willy Wonka, "I want it know!" That little one will learn patience, her mother can't get her the boots if she doesn't have any money. And the poor dog in the car just waiting for his family to return. It's always fun to see their reaction in the car when people are approaching, they get so excited only to get disappointed when they aren't staying. I hope that poor fellow didn't have to wait too long to get to leave that parking lot!

Your wife's bread and milk are necessities obviously, not a habit. I guess she made that argument adamantly clear! lol The old news paper may be a habit, but that fresh bread and milk most definitely are not. After having lived in South American where bread was fresh baked daily and everyone went to buy it every morning along with fresh milk. So I understand it! lol

I hope you had a great day, have another gift, hopefully helping slowly build up your curations.
