Decent morning start with normal routine. Took Lauren to attend to the dog sitting needs on Panorama then back to Pano. Gave Jen some additional measurements to work with. Took Lauren to see her mom. She was in bad shape. She seemed almost comatose. She was laying asleep with her mouth open and her eyes wide open. I dropped Lauren and went to Panorama to work through the file drawers. I found some important documents to keep along with a lot of great photos and scrapbook things for both of them and for the collection of items I am setting aside for their future interests. The photo in the picture above something I came across too. It was taken in an airport well before Linda and I met. It's Linda hugging her father when she returned from an extended stay in Paris. She told me how much this image captured her love for her dad. And, many times after his passing, how she saw it as a preview of what she will have waiting for her when she "eventually gets to heaven". We talked about this photo a week or two ago when she was more responsive. She remembered it. And it's meaning. Lauren and I returned after her work ended, took a shake from Happy Hound too which she enjoyed a little of, and when I showed her the photo she appeared to focus on it and said "yes" when asked if she remembered it. We left it there for her and once it's back in my possession it'll go in the aforementioned archive. I sold my mom's old exercise bike and split the proceeds between the kids. $125/each. As we go through things that are not heirlooms or to be kept or personal effects, like that bike or the old beat up table, we're going to sell or give them away and they can get the proceeds. We ended the evening hanging out on the patio by the fire pit.
