Tomorrow I get a break

I will be out of town for 6-8 hours, don't know if I deserve a break but sure as hell need one.  Son's wife will watch her. Son and I have papers to sign at CELA's in Marquette and get more info. on what comes next.  

 After that will stop in at Memory Place in Manistique and get more information. Haven't been able to go forward with MC  til lawyer stuff is done. That keeps me out of the pitfalls which could have happened without him. 

  I just hope I'm almost done with getting her placed.   It's been hard on me but I think a lot harder on dear wife.  Have a good day, I'll have one tomorrow.  That's a good day not a DRINK.   Hoot

    Hoot, I'm glad you're getting a few hours away. That should help a little.

    If the time comes for placement, be sure to watch what you sign. It will probably have a place for "responsible party" to sign. Just put her name in there, not yours. They can't force you to sign your name.
