We've been adjusting to Mom's absence. Last night the boys and Dee took Dad out for dinner. They had a good time. He hasn't been out much in the last 9 months. The group attempted to watch a movie but one by one the boys dropped off. Steve was the first to start the snoring chorus. Steve went home to snore himself to sleep and they finished the movie with the usual round of ice cream. Dad had a good time reminding them they sissied out during the movie.
Today has been good. At times the house was quiet and that's always more difficult. Linda came over and she and Dad made divinity. The test kitchen was alive again.
Mary walked in the door early evening. She drove over by herself for the weekend. It was a surprise to some. Dad was in resting and had left instructions to be awakened so we sent Mary in to wake him. Though groggy he was quite happy to see her. Some of the girls are going to stay the night. Eddie and Jack went back to their homes last night. They have been here day and night since Saturday. Dad assures us that he's fine and needs to make the adjustment sooner or later and tried to send us home. We sat up talking on his bed until midnight then called it a night.
