Wayne always hangs around with me, if I empty the DW, he sits at the table.etc.

Last night he was very alert and wanted to help – offered to dry some dishes, take the garbage out and recycling. (“Who are you?”)

I kind of sighed thinking this is how retirement should be, working together, each doing a chore and going on to other things. Not really whining but until this happens occasionally, one doesn’t realize the loss so much.
