Hi guys!
What a nice welcome back. I was away for a few days, looking after my mother. Normally, my sisters do a fine job of that but they need a break. We planted some flowers, picked up all kinds of twigs and debris from her yard and so forth. I'm lucky that Mom is ambulatory and has all her faculties. My Dad was a mess for 15 years after a stroke. So enjoy your parents while you can. Even if they do sometimes run a bit on the crazy side, like mine.
I will continue to visit -- can't keep me away as politics and particularly armchair prognostication are two of my many addictions. However, I may be less visible as fall approaches, since that is one of my busy seasons. At least I hope it will be. Summer is supposed to be, too...but customers are few and far between. When people have to choose between buying antique militaria and putting gas in their cars, the latter typically wins out.
I trust everyone has been on their best behavior. I was hoping the move to the suburbs and get an emo makeover just for BRTD's benefit. But I think I hate emo almost as much as him. And we're stuck with this house for the foreseeable future. LOL!
