_Pros:
_( in no order )
a. Brother & i are, like, way more back to normal than we have been in months. Thank God for that as well.
b. Members from emmanuel made appearances because of Rev. Matthew's announcement the day before in church. It was so comforting to see them their with open arms of support, that I am looking forward to finding time to re-immerse myself into emmanuel's community once again.
c. Support from priscilla who showed up at the start
d. All that happened that night with my best girl b_____, who hates when i tell the internet what she is up to. Company for the last 2 hours, the pizza night afterwards, the sweetest card that made me cry later that night. Grampa loved Blair, and she loved him.
e. Spending time with my cousins. It has not been all eight of us together for a couple of years. Jane's Keri, Brian, Dan, Mike, Kev, along with Diane's Kristen and Paul. I'm Cathy's little girl. The youngest of Charlie Bob's brood of grandchildren.
f. The 200+ picture running slideshow I created to go along with the other pictures and boards and newspaper clippings in the entry hall. Titled is " Grampa's Legacy in the New Generation " . A mix of pictures of his six great-grandchildren, Keri's Ella and Reese, Kristen's Jason, Lacey, and Abbey, and Paul's Gunner. Lately he had been reminded all of us to make sure to take care of " the babies ".

Any normal night post-Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy!, and Antiques Roadshow, circa 2006, 7, 8?
" God bless you honey. "
" God bless ya too, Grampa. "
" Make sure to turn on the hall light so you can see walking down the street. Now be careful of yourself, won't you. "
" Light's already on. One step ahead of ya. " (affectionately teasing)
" You're something else, you know? " (laughing to himself)
After a kiss and a hug, as I'm almost out the door,
" Don't forget the light! Is it on, Barbara? Make sure it's on for her. "
