Tuesday revival

Mum had more tests, then off to help friend Betty and finally to prepare for other events in the week. Father took off for golf but sadly got sore quickly and stopped after the 5th hole. His shoulder is still sore, weeks later. He rode with friends on the cart the rest of the time.

Mum's knees are still very sore and each day she feels a little better, but not enough so.

Marcus got a stange call from Diane. She needed help assembling a crib. She couldn't figure it out. It wasn't a matter of thinking, but a matter of parts, as they weren't all there. The company's webstie was as useful as bbq sauce on a milkshake. They didn't have an ordering process and didn't show you where to buy. What a piece o' crap.

After calling the compnay, is wasn't a surprise that parts weren't made for an 18 year old crib. Write it off ... just write it off. It reamins unassembled.

Marcus had given up on selling his old camera, but interstingly he had questions from people including a man wantint to know shipping to France. As the time expired on the sale it sold for the minimum price to a Florida family. I packed it tightly and shipped it. I hope to get paid soon.

Unrelated to any of that, there is an odd bird in the area. It's a bald cardinal, the reason for its baldness is still a mystery but Lois read that diet can contribute to such changes.
