Re: Kabu
Kabu I know, I would not mind adopting that little girl before she saw her first motorbike. Yes I think you are right it is possible to do these things and the next day pay the piper.
I sometimes think how horrible it must of been to be stretched on the rack.

RE Pat
Thank you Pat, I can assure you that I am not very intellectual, but that is a beautiful supposition.

Re: SAM
Sam perhaps they want to make an officer out him. Small reward for going overseas, only surmising. I'm sure you'll have to take it steady for a bit until you get used to it. Nothing is a bowl of cherries, I am afraid most of my steadfast helpers need help themselves.

Re: .Wiley
It is the pain of sorting through for genuine ones that is the worst. The day of the 2-1/4
hundredweight grain sack is over.

Chiff.Chaff.
I hate those marketing calls as well. I am quite rude when they call now and that has helped reduce the number of calls.Good idea to shop around for the insulation too.Sorry for your rheumatic pains but then you shouldn't be tossing bags of earth around anymore. Neither should I of course. Enjoy your brother's cooking and take life easy.

The poem was great! It's tough when there is no one around who can help with the heavy stuff! I have just started my first narcotic patch so I decided to come by your blog to read and make my first comment! I got through the read rather well but the typing posed a bit of a challenge! You are so right when you say that people only remember what they want and more often than not they do not recognize what another person does! You are a great son for having taken care of your mother for those ten years! KUDOS to you, too! Now, get some well deserved rest for the work will always be there the next day!
I have to tell you that I was texting with Christopher yesterday. I was told that the Army was giving him the business and he was none to happy about it! I told him that I forbid him to go back to war! And then I said those days were probably gone on what I could or could not forbid him to do! He sent a text back and "Yes Mother, I am not planning to back there!" LOL! I don't know what the Army is up to for I choose not to pry and wait until they come to me! It has always work best that way with my sons! sam 
Two hugs to help you start feeling better! Your flower is stunning, too!

The constant barrage of sales calls drives me nuts.
How do they know exactly when we sit down to eat or when we're about to find out whodunit on the TV program? If your brother's the intelligent one, and you're the one who's not so much, then he must be a freakin' genius, because you are very intellectual and insightful.
Lovely poetry, again. So wistful.

i enjoy going back far enough too, I like to think about when I was just
an innocent kid.
and just because the brother was fortunate enough to get himself an education, doesn;t make him more clever than you. Please stop lifting heavy stuff. I have sworn off lifting bloulders, time for you to stop too!
