He didn't sleep much on the flight. Seat wasn't comfortable at all. It's in the 30's (daytime) and he's freezing. He bought shingles for the trailer roof he needs to fix and was talking about sleeping there. The place is winterized, no water, no heat. He found some stuff (blankets and air mattress) we left for his daughter in the shed that she was supposed to have gotten. [>:] He was going to shower at the truck stop, try not to have to go potty... his feet were soaked... I got online and booked him a room at the motel right next to the trailer park. So he's sound asleep in a warm comfy bed with hot shower and potty, tv, microwave and coffee maker... hangers and an iron so he can look presentable at the wake and funeral. AND HE STARTED TO GET MAD but he's over it. [
] I miss him and wish I were there. [:-]
When we were trying to find deals to be able to afford this none of his brothers offered ANY help. Not even "you can stay at our house". After he got there and picked up the rental car his brother calls and says "you didn't pick up the car, did you? You can use one of ours." [:@] And the other says "you're staying at our house, aren't you?" That's after he's there and has a room. We got great deals and his work is unexpectedly giving him bereavement leave so all is well. But seriously. Wouldn't it seem like the help might have been offered BEFORE we finally got it all figured out? Of course, as you all know, I would have just said, "hey I need your couch. should I bring my pillow?" [
