damn...I really miss Fry's grocery...the publix was packed today an half the sale stuff was sold out!!

Mom was not cooperating today...took us 2 hours to get her out of bed...nurse said leave her in and feed her in bed next time. She is not a small woman and unless she helps sit up or stand, I can't force her, my back would go out!

Hopefully tomorrow will be better, she might not act up in front of her grandkids!

yes he owned his own garage for 38 years, he doesn't want to learn the newer computerized stuff though. and he doesn't want to work on it in a parking lot in the middle of the night and they are supposed to be in phoenix in the morning. so with all that is was quicker to go get it and haul it here.
