[QUOTE="Craig Miller, post: 1455766, member: 19296"] I just talked to mamaw and pawpaw about this the other day. They've been retired for 25ish years. I remember both of them going to work every day. Mamaw worked at factories in town. Papaw owned a furniture building business. Usually just him and sometimes a helper working in it. When she retired she dove into the genealogy work. And housekeeping. He started bush hogging for people and could work everyday he wanted to. He still keeps busy just keeping up their place. She told me I was too busy and I needed to just sit on the back porch for a while. That's their favorite past time now. I told her I don't want to because that's what they do and look what happened to them...they got old. She knew it was a joke. If they hadn't found something to do though I don't think either would still be around today. As for needing help as Bigfoot mentioned, he always has something he needs help with. If he can't get it himself he just waits until one of us stops by and if it needs done right then he has mamaw to call until she finds somebody home that can come over. [/QUOTE]
