Nephews and Plaster

My nephews came over to visit tonight. Emmanuel ran over to me the second he walked in the door and whispered in my ear. "Uncle Rob, Can we stay with you for a while"? Of course I answered. I think I made his day. Mom and Dad left shortly after that and they stayed for a few hours and played games and had a good old time. After it was time to take them home I dropped RM off and Emmanuel wanted to go with me to the store. I had to go to Kroger's to get Sheila some medicine. She has been sick all day. So I agreed. Emmanuel was so helpful. He wanted to buy Aunt Sheila a Nascar Gift Card to make her feel better. I told him no and asked if he wanted to get her a get well card. He said "No, She can't spend a get well card" Kids are so funny. I can't wait until we have our own. He then managed to snucker a bag of Doritos out of me. He even wanted to buy Aunt Sheila some tums to make her feel better. I explained that She did not need tums, I don't think he understood but he was okay with not getting them.

I did some home improvements today. As some of you may know our house was struck by lightning in September and it blew a hole in the wall in our spare bedroom. Well we got some plaster and Mr. Bob Villa here patched the hole. I think I did a nice job. It's probably not as good as Bob Villa would have done, but for a Rob job it will do. I guess tomorrow I'll sand it again and see if it needs another coat. After that we get the pleasure (and I mean that as sarcastically as possible) of painting the walls.

Well that's all I can do tonight. I am tired and still want to ride a few more miles on the bike. So...

Blessings till I post again.
