About forty minutes to my Dads place, and he is in town. He hates being a townie, but as he aged he had to move in closer to medical facilities. We tried to figure out how to buy his place when he moved, but in the end the emotional baggage and drama with his wife was just not worth it. We were willing to pay more than he got for it. His wife is very difficult at best and no matter how much we loved the place, it just was not worth the family disruption. She is my age (Nuff said) Our kids are not her biggest fans let’s just say. She never had any children and lord knows them folks are always the smartest best parents. Every conversation with her always started with, if those were my kids….fill in the blank. Heck I figured if I didn’t have to take one of them to the emergency room the day was a win!
