Jr. had some bad days this past week getting sick, dry heaves, etc. which tears his throat up each time, but yesterday was good and today looks like it will be good. Along w/ improved health comes his determination to overdo so today he wanted to put some silicone on the skylight over the 2nd floor bathroom. He parked the tractor on a rosebush (!), instructed me to work the tractor lever to raise the scoop thingy up to the roof edge where he stacked 2 ladders on top of one another to climb up the steep roof -- while carrying tools and squirt guns, etc. I tried to tell him old men shouldn't climb on steep roofs, but he didn't listen of course. While he was up there, he was trying to tell me instructions for the tractor but I can't hear because he can only whisper and the motor was running -- and I'm over 50% deaf too. (I got the phone ready and pre-dialed 911 even though I don't know if they even come up here.) But, thank God he didn't fall and break anything.
Bonnie and Bobby just left today. We enjoyed their visit. This is the 3rd time Bonnie Sue has been here since Jr got cancer, and we really appreciate her and Bobby for taking their time to come visit again.
Jr said he was trying not to think of how much Obama paid to have the 3 muslims taken out of Gitmo to their island paradise or he will get sick again! By the time Obama pays a few million dollars per prisoner to bribe other little nations to take these potential terrorists, us taxpayers will be even more broke -- and he won't even let his girls go to public school! Oh, blessed are the ignorant...

So happy to hear that Jr had a couple of good days. I just pray that he will continue to have more and more good days... I cannot believe he got on that roof. I can only imagine how scared you were. I remember seeing the skylight you are referring to, and I know how high is is. OMG! Love, Glenda
