It has been several days since I have posted anything on here. I just haven't felt like writing. Ken and I are still missing Robbie. I will try to remember some of the main highlights of the days I have missed writing on here. Sam and Romona arrived back home last Thursday. Sam drove over here Friday and buried Robbie for us. I went into the house crying and stayed there for quite awhile. Thank Goodness Ken was able to be there for the burial. Before Sam came over Thursday, both Ken and I mowed the grass and Ken was able to finish the back Friday. Monday the oxygen people came out and brought us a batch of oxygen tanks. I talked to Romona also on Monday about helping me price things for the yard sale. I also mentioned I needed Sam to come over and help me move the sofa bed out of Ken's bedroom and bring in the other hospital bed into that room so I can sleep beside Ken and be there for him if he needs me. Not for sure when he will be able to do this but knowing Sam I won't have to wait very long. Sunday Ken got on the computer and ordered himself a t.v. for his bedroom. I called Direct T.V. and they will be out Friday to connect the t.v. to Direct. That is, if the t.v. arrives as fast as they say it will. Thursday Ken and I drove to Fayetteville to see the oxygen doctor. When we got back to Harrison we stopped and ate. First time we had been out to eat in ages. Later that evening Daniel Strout stopped by and visited with Ken and I. He is running for sheriff of Boone County. We really like him and plan on supporting him. We told him he could put signs in our front yard, close to the highway. Drove to Harrison on Saturday and met with Andrea to pick up more yard sale items. Then in the afternoon I drove over to Joyce's for she also had some sale items to donate. She thinks she will have more items to give to the sale. With in the last two weeks I have heard from two of my nieces from my "former" life. I am thrilled. It is wonderful to know that they haven't forgotten me. Their names are Peggy (Todden) Rothmeyer and Angela (Callahan) Ocasio.
