HI ALL!!   "    Tell me honey, what will I do, when I'm hungry and thirsty too, feeling foolish and that's for sure, just waiting here at your kitchen door    "      Sorry about missing yesterday, just got out side on the porch and watched the birds and time go by. Dinner and then a couple of movies and it was bed time. Out and about today, went to the National Cemetery in Kent today. Saw Daddy's spot and LOTS OF PEOPLE!! WOW I thought there would be some people around, but the place was PACKED. We got there just before they started a Memorial Program. But it was good to visit, Not only for Memorial day, but his birthday and fathers day are not too far off. Then a nice easy drive back. I know Mom really appreciated it. AND me too. Mom refilled the bird feeders and there have been lots of pigeons around, so have been trying to keep them out of the other birds feeders. It has been nice sitting out on the front covered porch. Had a good week so far with eBay, this weekend has been quiet, but I expected that. My fantasy golf teams did terrible, only ONE player made the cut and got me any points. AND, my Fantasy Baseball teams are struggling!! Really trying to stay mellow this weekend, I will have a BIG week coming up. I will have to deal with the OLD Mortgage company, the shitty appraisal, the ex-employer and my COBRA refund, and who knows, some other poor sap that wanders to far off base. You know lots of thought about my dad. I certainly learned a lot from him both good and bad. And. I seem to apply something almost every day in my life that he had an effect on. I wonder at times how my kids feel about the influence that I had on their lives? I will always remember one thing that a very close friend of my dad's told me long. long ago. This guy had been in and out of personal problems and my dad had even let him stay in our house for awhile. And one day this guy told me, " You know David, you have a very special father. He is a gentleman, AND a gentle - man!" CHOW MOI
