It was only three days--Thursday afternoon to Sunday morning--but we had a wonderful visit and Dad was feeling better than he had in a while. AJ was a lot of help, doing useful things like taking all the ceiling fans apart and cleaning and repairing them. He expressed interest in the blog, which I tried to encourage but didn't get the feeling that this was going to last very long.
He walked with me and complained about trying to keep up, he told lots of great stories about Thomas, we had lunch at Harold's and breakfast at Skillet's, and then it was time for him to go. We are trying to plan a later trip that will include Ursula and Thomas.
When he left I felt bereft, which happens every time one of you comes and goes.

I'm so glad AJ could visit, sounds like he was treated to a good time. I noticed over Tday he has quite an appetite, so your agenda of fine food was right up his alley. I am even happier Dad is doing better, we talked on Sunday and he really sounded chipper. Mom I know when he is feeling better you rest easier and we all are glad for that.
I'm trying to see what I can sort out for early in the New Year myself. Thank god, though, the ceiling fans have been marked off the honey-do list. That is encouraging to me.
