Ken my grandmother is very lucky. She still lives in the house her and my grandfather bought many yrs ago. she can still take care of herself for the most part which is good. but my parents , older brother and his wife, myself and my younger brother live there with her to help take care of her if need be. In fact her mother lived there until she passed away.
That is good for your grandmother..
We tried doing that with my mother, but it had gotten to hard for my brother and sister in law to care for her.. She has forgotten to much and everyday it is more and more gone..

I can understand that Don. I also know that is a hard decision to make. in fact one of my other great grandmothers lived in her own home despite having one of her legs amputated. we would visit her every day to make sure she was okay and stay several hrs. but that was probably 17 yrs ago when she passed.

Morning Shaun...the appointment resulted in a no sale...at least for now. The folks are looking for a new Fusion...he wants to order a 2010...she wants him to get a 2009. Her reasoning...supported by me...is that with a 2009...he gets a 6 cyl...and it's 3 gee whizzers cheaper. My reasoning involves the fact that...if he gets the '09...I get paid now...if he orders a 2010...I don't get paid for a couple months!!! 
How's your work day going???

Nah, I'm not all-packed. 
But eh considering I live out of a suitcase anyways (huge duffle bag waterproof backpack thing), its not that big a deal to stuff everything back inside and carry it out to the van.
Its the lugging and loading of the two ladie's and two cat's baggage that taxes me.

Also put the name at the center of the cross instead of the base..
Might make some thinner ones also..
Just my 2 cents..
