Friday and a Holiday….

Ahh… does this mean summer is over? Labor Day weekend is here, it came so fast this time. It seemed like a few days ago that Memorial Weekend was upon us, now summer is ending. My older brother Luke and his crew are on their way down as I type, I for one, am very happy to see them; they can help us move Jacks. We all plan on going to the End of Summer Art Walk on Saturday for the last art exhibition and maybe some cooking out and beach time of course. Little Kyle and I have planned on watching the first football games of the season together (actually it’s Luke and I). We started the football squares for the extra entertainment during the games at work. I’m sure Bee will win every time, some how she manages to pull in a square. Last night Mom and I talked about a few things, I see her not very happy with my Pops and his whole attitude around the house. “He’s a totally different man now Mark, for Gods sake don’t turn out like him”. I think that’s one worry she won’t have to dwell on when it comes to that. This summer she really caught on how much he has changed; now just finding out why this has occurred is the next task. Lori won’t go in the same room with him alone again, I fear she’s witnessed the last few weeks with Pops and Jacks at war one too many times. She walks in her brothers’ room over and over, just looking at him, patting his back and playing in his hair. Right now the couch in my office looks so nice just to curl up on and nap…..maybe later.
