The Coffee House

[Gary A.]

Sad news that we expected to be forthcoming, but you're never really ready for. Mother In Law passed away early am this morning. She had been going down fast over the last month, struggling with congestive heart failure and cancer, both of which she had refused treatment on. At the ripe old age of 90, she went out of this life the same way she lived it on her own terms to the last. Packing up to leave later today.

Condolences ... to you and her daughter.

@SquarePeg and @Gary A. Thank you for the kind words. We were fortunate to have had a good visit with her a little over two weeks ago, during which she was cognizant and aware of everything going on, talking and laughing. The big worry now is her Dad who at 96 may just give up, I think a lot of what's kept him going the last few years was his concern for her. He's currently on the short list to get into a very nice VA home, which would help, as the socialization with other Vets would give him something to look forward to.

At the age of 90, hard to ask for anything better than that!

When Mom died, Dad tossed in the towel on life. He had no interest in anything. Took him a couple years to pass.

Sorry to hear this Smoke. My condolences.

No water in the oil of the Mitsubishi.
Most likely two things. Water got away and it got hot. Gauge never indicated that.
Or timing belt gone. Either way a LOT of work. Not at all sure where we go from here. 6 hours and some today.
Worked on a couple of 6 wheelers.
Need wheels, bolts, small wheels etc.
Too tuckered out to do anything else today.
Only did 3 penny rolls yesterday. Could do 9 today. Might or might not. Later.

If family would cause her to miss the shot, and then she'd be sued by the bride/groom for not getting the shot, this would be good video evidence in her favor, LOL.

Gary has just returned from Home Depot. Gary saw a number of Dodger caps in the store. (Gary was one of them.)

I gather that Dodgers fans apparently need a lot of home improvement?
