Hee Hee...well, it was more big belly watching in some respects. why do the fattest -um- late middle aged guys wear speedos? Ok, I guess boxer trunks worn below the gut would tend to bag in the back & look like...uh. Never mind.

It was hot and sunny and great! Really good not to be cold.

Read an article yest. about smilers staying married longer. Supposedly if you look at pix of people when they were kids,HS yearbook, etc. the non-smilers tend to end up divorced in the future. Never saw H's grad pic. Saw his Marine portrait, but they're spozed 2 look serious in those. Very few kid pix exist. There was a fire in his mom's apt. bldg. when he was in early 20's & whether it was from fire or water damage, any pix she had were lost. A great aunt sent him a few pix of himself & twin cousins at 1st communions, grinning like 7 yr old boys trying to be good for a day. He has an album from Marine days on Okinawa - maybe I'll check for smiles in that. Where am I going with this? The crabbiness connection you mentioned. I'm sure sometimes it has to do with the pain. Other times I'm guessing its what he grew up with. Mamma made heavy weather of stuff most of the time. She wasn't a boy's kind of mom. In any case, being crabby while on vacation is such a waste of time.

He was sore when he went to work this aft. Was lying on the couch napping earlier. This always makes him sore. He still always does it. Just plain will not do anything that helps it. If he doesn't make an appt. tom'w. I'm doing it for him. At least try physical therapy again for a few weeks. I don't know about you guys, but when my knees were killing me, I went. Did the PT, ice, advil, exercises. Wouldn't you? Backs, knees, feet, when they hurt, you have no life, every time you get up to walk, bathroom, kitchen, ........ and there's my 2nd law; Things left to themselves go from bad to worse. Sympathetic or not, I'm tired of living with the results of him not taking care of himself. Whether its crabbiness or restricted activity. Enough already.

So much for the day's rant. Time to get ready to close up & go home. I'll check your threads later.
