Let me say right here, how good it is to see you posting, Bittersweet! Just keep popping in and of course "posting"!
Glad you're acclimating to that heat and humidity known as "FLORIDA", RR. I don't do well with it even here. But I'm ready to be back in FL. Keep waiting for my airline voucher to show up in my email so I can book my flight back there in October. I found a non-stop from Rochester to Tampa on October 29th. It's more than the flight to Orlando, but I finally realized it just doesn't matter as I'll be using the voucher which is worth way more anyway.
Dh just brought our sheets back from the laundry room. We'll make the bed up clean sometime this afternoon -or at least before bedtime.
It was way past time to get them done. We only have 1 set so we don't have to store an extra set all the time. So far, it's been okay doing that. Make bed, strip, wash, dry, put back on bed. No folding necessary.
I'm trying to buy some sunglass/bifocal/wrap around/readers for dh to use when he's dipping tanks. So far not finding what he needs/wants. He wants them to be real wrap arounds so grass doesn't fly in his eyes when doing the mowing. I'm really not sure how much longer he's going to be able to work -especially when it's so hot. His boss told him he could work in the shop yesterday if he wanted. He last a whole half hour and said it was enough since he didn't HAVE to. They had a young guy quit the other day so there's more room for more hours if/when he wants them. This man will be 84 Friday and still going strong, even with all his health issues, but he is slowing down.
We really need to talk with our investor as we have way too much just sitting in our bank accounts and earning VERY LITTLE interest. Think we could do better with our investor. Need to sit down and figure out if he really 'needs' to work.
Dh said his DB was in really bad shape by the time he said good-bye this morning. Crying like a baby unfortunately. I know he's pretty much all alone down there (FL) at least until we get there this fall. I'm quite sure that dh will be spending a lot of time with him this winter and I know that it's getting quite hard on dh. They are treating the spots on his lungs now (to give him a 'better quality of life') but I think the expense is getting to him. My thought is just pay a minimum amount. After he passes his inheritants can sell his property which is now worth an exhorbiant amount and pay it off. It was supposed to go to DS-R but he can't afford to pay the others their share of that inheritance so it will have to be sold.
13 yr olds are often hard enough on their clothes and shoes, but when it's a size 17 shoe that's needed, it makes it even more awkward to have to buy replacements! Either way, he'll have shoes by the end of the week, and that's what's important!
