Two sons and 3 brothers who live in town have yet to show up.

How sad.

So sorry to hear that Russ, so good you are there for her. That must mean so much to her. And so great you are standing up for her.

Sadly, Nigel, with three living children, 5 siblings and a whole lot of church affiliates, when it comes right down to it, she has no one else. In the hospital over two weeks and now in the nursing home over two weeks...no blood relative has stopped by, and 5 live here in Lexington. Church ladies chow up to bitch about my care and ask if I'll still be sending donations to the furnace fund.

The odd thing is, because of mental challenges (mentally, she is a first grader), she has never expressed any appreciation...never said thanks for anything."Ask Russ" is all she has ever said. She thinks George took care of her until she died; then Russ took over.

It's like taking care of a dependent child.

Tony, the new "little Guy" is about 25 lbs, 73 notes and is a monster! Draw bars are really accurate.

Coolest toy I've had in years.

Been on the boat for four days, just arrived in Cape Charles, VA after sailing 215 miles. Hot as Hades, the boat's AC broke down, but the ancient mariner was able to make a fix in no time at all. Temp outside is about 91, in the cabin after 20 minutes of AC, the temperature is down to 77. Gonna be gone for 10 more days before returning home to get ready for the next trip.

All the best,

Garycool
