I had to pull out the jetted tubs and do tile walk in showers, a first for me. Every wall, fixture, floor and just about everything else had to be changed or repaired. It has been taking almost all my time, now I just need to head to Phoenix next week and watch the moving truck pull away and put our collective backsides on a plane.
Good on you for doing that for them
I just wish you were my son

Great thing you did (and are doing) Jon. House looks very nice, they should be comfortable there and are lucky to be so close. My dad would never move and will not travel any more. I send him some money every month because I know he's on a budget and I fly to see him once or twice a year but it feels like I should be there more.

Well you know the old adage Wayne, "When the CAT'S away the DOG will play"
I see you found it's a thankless and a full time job keeping our Texan canine in check along with all of the other miscreants that inhabit this place

3 weeks of Sol, Las Playas, cervezas and Tequilla. You need no longer to ask why

Welcome back, Sweets!!! Did you get a tan?

Meanwhile,

There was a man who lost one of his arms in an accident.

He became very depressed because he loved to play golf.

One day in his despair, he decided to commit suicide. He got on an elevator and went to the top of a building to jump off. He was standing on the ledge looking down and saw this man skipping along, whooping and kicking up his heels.

He looked closer and saw that this man didn't have any arms at all.
He started thinking, what am I doing up here feeling sorry for myself, I still have one good arm to do things with. There goes a man with no arms skipping down the sidewalk so happy, and going on with his life.

He hurried down and caught up with the man with no arms. He told him how glad he was to see him because he lost one of his arms and felt useless and was going to kill himself. He thanked him again for saving his life and said he knew he could make it with one arm if that guy could go on with no arms.

The man with no arms began dancing and whooping and kicking up his heels again.

He asked, "Why are you so happy anyway?"

He said, "I'm NOT happy. My balls itch."

Heart-warming stories like this just makes one want to cry.
