This was Sadie, that cleaning Lady, who is really , me, this AM--- cleaning up after a few days without vacuuming-- a few days with Son #2, the Pilot , here--- --which I absolutely loved! --- He comes so seldom, but when he does, he fixes everything that both Himself and I can think of.
However, now I am hearing, "Dad how long have you had this thing?"--- as it seems so much in this house has aged---like--"US"! --And then I hear, "I'm going to throw this out and I will order you a new one from Amazon."---Why do I have the feeling that , lotza stuff in this house perhaps needs to get the ol' "Heave-Ho?"--It
It's like, "this old house"---- Anyway, his visit was the best thing that has happened to us in 3 years!
I am late posting , as it was time for fresh bananas, so that made me drive into No Frills on very bad icey roads ---I am back home---The roads certainly were slippery !---- I had to get some money also to pay, "Stan the Man" who came on a Sunday to repair the dryer vent. What on earth would we ever do without Stan the Man?
Wonderful when kids come home to fix and or replace things. I had a very $$$ printer that I can no longer get ink for so at Chrstmas time my son-in-law brought a new printer & installed it up for me. I'm making a list for the next time he comes. We finally have about 4 inches of snow but nothing to really complain about. Take care of yourself, don't work too hard and be careful on those roads.
ReplyDeleteOh my, yes, we probably have a lot of things that should be replaced. BUT . . . they still work so . . . not replacing them!
ReplyDeleteWell, stay warm, stay dry.

My in laws used to make a list for us when we came of things that wanted done . . .now we are the oldies but most of the kids never come to help. . . wondering what we did wrong.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how the son that is the farthest away and travels even further has to come and fix everything when you have three sons in town that could surely do some of the stuff. And one of them is or was involved with Canadian Tire. Terrible that your roads are so icy - it is dangerous. Glad you made it back safely. We're getting some snow again today - at least not as bad as last week. Gerrard is such a cutie. Hope they have a safe trip back here (Toronto). Take care and stay safe.
ReplyDeleteI may have mentioned once or twice how much I love how your sons take care of you and watch over you and your Himself! Somehow the next generation below us speaks a different technology language, so good on them! You might mention they have fans out here in the interwebs!
ReplyDeleteHave a good week, and give Sadie a good tip this week! ;D
Blessings for such a son! Happy Monday.
ReplyDeleteI’m so happy your son fixed so many things for you! Glad you went to town, but Lady Luck was with you on those slippery roads. Take care.
ReplyDeleteI hope Son #2 had a safe drive home. I'm sure he enjoyed doing things around the house to help you and his dad. I always enjoyed helping my mom work inside or outside of the house when I could. We spent the time working, talking and laughing. Great memories. Stay safe.
ReplyDeleteThat's so great to have him fix so many things for you. Yes, so many things in the house we should probably give the toss to. It's just finding the time to do.
ReplyDeleteGreat that pilot son fixes Things! He's a keeper. I love his dog. What did Lopez think of Gerrard?
ReplyDeleteGlad you made it safely to town and back.
Leave a big tip for Sadie.
Happy for your wonderful visit. Oh goodness! You and those bananas! lol
ReplyDeleteWe too, have many things that are totally outdated and probably should be gone from our "palace". Glad you made it home on those icy roads.
ReplyDeleteYour son is surely a wonderful man. Glad you got your bananas and home safely...have a good week.
