Careful what you say, Cathy, or the husband just may overhear …
@summerdogWould that be Irving and Cathy’s mom?
HI, MOM. Happy Sunday, Clan.

Good for Cathy! The more interests/hobbies a couple share together, the better their chances of a longer, happier marriage than if they had little, or no, interests in common at all. And since Irving loves to play golf so much, I think it’s really great that she not only joins him when she can, but when she does, she isn’t just “faking it” for his sake — she actually enjoys playing it too.
Hi, rgcviper! I couldn’t make out the name on Irving’s magazine yesterday either. Even after enlarging the picture all the way upto 500% (the highest my laptop would go), the best I could make out was maybe the word “Journal” — which would make sense because a lot of magazines have that word on their covers. That’s just my best guess anyhow.
Hello and Happy Sunday, fellow Cathy fans. Hope everyonehad a really great weekend! :-)
