I'm in the process of duping Ben and friends. They came to me this afternoon, saying we want to help you out by cleaning, or whatever...for money. I said perfect. Start with Ben's bedroom and his man cave. They did a so-so job, got bored and didn't finish. Next, they will go down to Jack's workshop. I will have them clean up the area that they used to build their go-kart. When all is said and done and they want their money...I will say, for what? You made all those messes, but thank-you for finally cleaning it all up. I am sounding mean but I'm slowly learning, I gotta keep the upper hand.
Yesterday, I went shopping for football equipment with Ben and a neighbor friend who is older, Jaron gave me so much direction. This morning, the trombone was playing again in my ear...but this time he was also wearing all his new football gear...how does one not laugh...padded football practice pants and a trombone.
Neil is picking Ben up to fish tomorrow morning at 7am...I told him to just call my cell on the drive over to stir me out of bed. Ben is prepared. Clothes are ready. I spoke with Ben tonight as I gave him his nightly massages on whatever ailment he suffered. I told him how important it is to me and Neil that they get to hang out together. Jack is smiling down at both of us...he's also excited school starts soon, cuz his backyard has gotten trashed this summer.
