As you already know, this will
probably be another extremely long message, John, because there's lots to talk about after the
meeting. So much happened at that meeting that I might not include everything in this message
and even if this does end up being a long message I might still have more to talk about in the
next E-mail I send you. First though, the message my dad forwarded to me is in attached ZIP file
“fwd5wndrs.zip,” let me know if you’re able to view it with no problems this time and again also
let me know what you think. If you have problems opening it, maybe we could somehow transfer the
ZIP file on one of my memory sticks. Strange that you didn’t get the message, it should have
come from my E-mail address and not from the address of the person who sent it to my dad. And I
looked at your video with my mom, I’ll quote what she thought about each of the animals; nice
dog, cute cat, white rat. I was able to see myself that rat was white, I also saw the part where
the cat gave the dog a bath (by licking it). My mom also said about the whole video in
general quote “that's funny.”
That was a good visit we had two days ago on Monday. You heard me say that my mom saw the
weather on the Noon News that day and they said that yesterday might be the last day we see the
sun for a while, they originally had predicted fog yesterday morning and then it would cloud up
later in the day. After clouding up, they didn’t see anymore sun in the foreseeable forecast so
Monday therefore was a good day for a walk. Now I was surprised to see the sun come out again
today. And speaking about the weather, my mom said that it was a good thing that our meeting was
last Thursday instead of Friday (the 15th) because the rain wasn’t as heavy on Thursday
and therefore was easier to get around that day.
You remember I told you two days ago that I had a good sleep the last four nights in a row
after only getting a couple hours of sleep the night before the meeting, I didn’t get to sleep
until 2AM that night and then I was awake since 4:30AM. I didn’t do quite as well Monday night
however, only got about six hours of sleep. You said two days ago that you thought the increase
in my medication might have been what helped me to have four good sleeps in a row, and you also
asked me if I noticed any change in my mood after the increase. To answer that, I don’t think my
mood has changed much (if it even changed at all). I didn’t feel any different when I was
with you two days ago than the way I felt all the times I was with you before the last time I
saw you two days ago and after the altercation
that took place a few days after Christmas
, still feel happy whenever I’m doing stuff while
you’re around. I still feel the same however about not being able to forgive my dad and about
wanting to live somewhere else. My mom said after we got home from the meeting last Thursday
that she hopes the altercation after Christmas will be the last time it happens which as you
know she says after every altercation we had in the past. I can't have my dad sit on me or stomp
on my back anymore and I think I’m best to move out before I hit my mom again and before
something really bad does happen. Speaking about my dad stomping on my back, keep this in
mind:
Mp<> ...And it didn’t end there, I then told him to let me go because I had to go to the
bathroom. He asked me “are you
> going to be good” and then I said “yah,” so he let me go. I was only free for one second after
he let me go and then
> he grabbed me again (this time for no reason) once I stood back up and was off the ground. As
soon as he let me go
> this time, I was so mad at him for grabbing me a second time for no reason that I knocked over
the coat rack...I asked
> him a couple times later why he grabbed me again. One of those times he said because I knocked
over the coat
> rack. I then told him that was after he grabbed me the second time and then he said “no it
wasn’t.” Another one of those
> times he said because I had hit my mom...so I then told him that I didn’t hit her while I was
free for no more than just one
> second after he let me go and before he grabbed me again the second time...He then said that I
did hit her between the
> two times he grabbed me...
I just can't forgive him for that. I do admit to hitting my mom
that
evening but just
not as many times as my dad said I did. have to start thinking about my health and my safety,
also don’t forget that my back was sore for the last few days before
that altercation. I don't want to ever have another night again where
my parents are camped out on the floor by the front door and I don't ever want to be dehydrated
again after going at least a day not wanting to eat or drink anything after having an altercation.
Now it’s going to be hard moving out and then in with new people who I never met before
without the support of someone who I had known for a long time like Carol. And again, it’s
because of my parents’ mistake why she isn’t
around to give me that support. When I said to my mom that what happened was
their mistake, she then said quote “you never
know when a relationship’s gunna end and it can happen for different reasons.” My mom then went
on to say "it's easy to look back on it and think about ways we could've prevented it” and “if
it didn't happen that time it could've happened another time.”
From what Raynor said at the meeting, it sounds like Carol heard that we're getting help and
my mom said that she’s probably glad to hear that. I don't however want Carol to just sit back
knowing that we got help and I want her to actually be around to support me, I don't want her to
die thinking of me the way she does after what happened last August, and I don't want her to
think of me the same way she'd think of
the Balcony Rapist or the three teens who were
found guilty in the axe attack on Michael Levy. I also don’t see why Carol should have been
scared that day last August if she had already knew I have a history of throwing tables and if I
didn’t throw anything big like a table. All I remember throwing that day were a lamp, a chair,
and maybe also a waste basket.
You remember Dr. McKibbin (I now know the correct spelling for his name) asked me at
the meeting last Thursday “when was the last time I talked on the phone.” You know that the only times I talk on the phone are when I talk to my two friends, Mac and Kris. I haven’t talked to either of them on the phone or seen them in person since before Christmas and I also told you in the message I sent you last Wednesday (the 13th) that I plan to no longer have anything to do with them unless I see Carol again, and again that’s only if I continue seeing her on a regular basis once I meet up with her instead of seeing her again just once for coffee.
Another question Dr. McKibbin asked me at the
meeting was if I find it boring while confining myself to the couch, well I feel safe confined
to the couch and have found so far that we have less problems that way. I haven’t had any
altercations between my parents and myself so far since confining myself to the couch, I
also haven’t hit my mom once since before confining myself to the couch. I think my mom might
have been trying to get me angry the night when she had her “mental episode” so that I would hit
her and then get in trouble for it. It should have been obvious to her that almond butter is
really messy and won't come out without being washed, she should’ve therefore known not to use a
dry Kleenex and instead use something wet. It’s also not normal for her to hit herself, even
when she can’t find the right words to explain to me and gets frustrated if I keep asking her
what she means.
The time my mom was referring to at the meeting wasn't the time when Maureen Linklater, the T
A I had already told you who I obsessed about when she worked with me in High School and who was
no help to us, didn't show up when she was suppose to meet me after school. This was the time
back in May 2000 (grade eleven at that time) when I went and hid in the wooded area
behind the elementary school, the same one two blocks from my place where I attended the last
three months of grade seven, before the police showed up. This incident had started in the
morning when I had asked Mrs. Linklater to get my laptop out for me so that I could take it to
my classes, my laptop was locked in the cupboard in the BASES room at that time. For the last
little while leading up to this day, the teachers had been trying to get me to ask other people
if they become available first instead of waiting for Mrs. Linklater to become available every
time I either needed something or had a question. Now what started the incident was that when
Mrs. Linklater gave my laptop to me, she asked me why I couldn’t ask one of the other staff
members who was in the BASES room at that time to get my laptop out for me. It just so happened
that she was the first person in that room who became available at that time, why couldn’t she
accept that? This upset me and I couldn’t get her to explain herself when I kept asking her all
day why it wasn’t obvious to her that she was the one I asked because she was the first person
who became available at that time. I didn’t like the way she said “goodbye” to me at the end of
that day and I also didn’t like the tone of voice she said it in, I knew that wasn’t herself.
She was usually a lot nicer when we met at the end of the day everyday after school to say
goodbye. It was after this time when I then went running out to the car where my mom was waiting
to pick me up and then I started to hit and punch her until Mrs. Linklater came running out with
the teacher who was in charge of the BASES. As soon as they came running out was when I ran off
to the wooded area behind the elementary school, my mom and the two teachers followed me in my
mom’s car. The one teacher called 911 on my mom’s cell phone when they were in her car.
I haven’t taken the bus on my own to the mall for a snack or anywhere else since before Amir,
the male worker who I had before Carol, started working with me. I always went on the bus with
him once he started working with me. Another thing I said in the message I sent you last
Wednesday the 13th:
> ...it’s true that I don’t like to be left alone, but I feel that wherever I live I should
still have my own freedom to come
> and go as I please...
Amir was the first person who told me about monkey trees BTW. We saw one in my own
neighbourhood one day when I was walking home with him either from the pool or from White Rock
Centre after we got off the bus there, we came from somewhere in that direction when we saw it.
Anyway, remember I told you when you saw the monkey tree on 152nd Street last Thursday that you
were the second person and not the first who I heard about monkey trees from.
We had a small argument last Thursday evening (evening of the 14th) when my dad first
told me that he wanted to go with my grandparents (his parents) the next day
(Friday afternoon) down to the casino in Washington state that they always go to, Nooksack
Casino, which isn’t too far South of Abbotsford. I didn’t like that idea because it had
originally been planned that dad would pick up my Safeway Chinese food that afternoon and I was
worried that he might get stuck in a border lineup, this was too short notice for me. My mom
told me then that the next day (Friday) was suppose to be a rainy day and would therefore be a
good day for him to have some what she calls “dad time.” I then asked my mom if he had to go
down there on a rainy day and why he couldn’t go one day on the weekend. My grandparents had a
coupon for that casino that was only good for Friday, so they had to go that day. First they had
to wait twenty minutes in line before they could cash in their coupon and then there was a
lineup at the border on their way back, so my dad phoned my mom as soon as he drove into the
lineup to let her know that he wouldn’t have my Safeway Chinese food home until 6:30PM. That
would have been too late for me, you know that most days I like to eat at 6PM. My mom and me
ended up driving to Safeway to get the Chinese food ourselves so that I would have it in time
for when I usually like to eat. That was the first time I had left the house with anybody else
besides you since before Christmas, I just waited in the car and listened to the radio because
we didn’t get out to Safeway until just after 5PM and my mom said that it would probably be
crowded in there that whole hour between 5 and 6PM with all the people who stop in to pick up
their supper after work. My mom told me as soon as she came back out to the car that it was a
good thing I didn't go in with her because there were lots of little kids running around the
Chinese lineup. The lady who was in line in front of my mom had five little kids with her
including one little girl who kept saying "noodles" to the man at the counter...”noodles,
noodles, noodles...”
Now if I’m living with Carol and I wanted a certain meal at certain time (like at 6PM
for example instead of 6:30PM), there would hopefully be nobody else living in the same place
besides just me and her and I hope there would always be someone with me whenever Carol’s away
like for example if there ever comes a time when she would like a day to herself just like what
my dad wanted last Friday. I told you my plan for if that does happen in the message I sent you
last Wednesday the 13th:
> ...My mom did ask me one time since the altercation
a few days after
Christmas what my
plans are for whenever
> Carol has an appointment while living with her. I guess either one of her daughters or her
friend, Holly, could stay with
> me, or if worse ever comes to worst I guess I could go with Carol to her appointment and sit
in the waiting room.
You learned at the meeting that one of my obsessive compulsive tendencies is that I have my
mom wash my clothes for me lots because I’m very particular about what I wear. For example, I
always like to wear a blue shirt with a black pair pants on whichever days I see you and on
whichever days I meet new people. I will wear something else though whenever it's just me and
mom at home. If I live with Carol, I plan to stock up on blue shirts, black pants, and the kind
of Stanfield's underwear I like that does not have the bump inside them.
And if I could have my way when living with Carol, I would like to take my cat, Chloe, with
me because I like to sleep with her every night. There’s a TA named Brian Lindberg who use to
work in the BASES program at Semiahmoo Secondary when I went to school there, he and Carol now
work together in the BASES program at Earl Marriott Secondary School. Carol told me last year
when she was still working with me that Brian lives by himself in just a small shack and he has
ten cats. I therefore don’t see a problem with Carol and me having three cats if we live
together; both of my cats as well as her’s.
Speaking about Chloe, you also heard at the meeting that I tell my mom every time Chloe does
something. For example, I’ll be sitting on the big couch in our living room and Chloe will be in
that same room on the loveseat. As soon as Chloe leaves the loveseat, I would then tell my mom
“Chloe left the couch” and if she doesn’t answer I would keep repeating it until I get an answer.
Now this is a habit that I can agree to break, this should be one of the less important things
than some of the bigger concerns about living somewhere else. Also keep in mind that I have a
hard time hearing, mom might have already given me an answer one of the first times I tell her
that “Chloe left the couch” and I might not have heard her that time. I tell her enough times
that she has to speak louder but she never takes me seriously. And when it comes the times when
I don’t know that my mom has disappeared to the other side of the house until I try to ask her a
question while not knowing she disappeared, it usually takes me two or three tries before she
can hear me and before I get an answer.
An hour before I went to sleep the night before the meeting at around 1AM (around 1AM
the night I only got a couple hours of sleep), I had a messy toot. I had a poop after I did my
teeth and just before I went to bed Thursday night (night of the 14th) which is another
time of day I don’t normally have a poop. I had a messy toot while in the middle of getting
undressed for my shower that same night (Thursday night) as well as the next two
nights (Friday and Saturday night), that’s three nights in a row, and I had a messy toot on
Friday while in the middle of going to the bathroom just before having my Chinese food. I
already had a burpy stomach an hour earlier that same day when my mom and me had to leave to get
my Chinese food just after my dad called plus you already know that was short notice for me
again so I therefore just didn’t want to go out. I was awake for a short time yesterday morning,
during which I had a messy toot in bed at around ten after 4AM. That’s a time when I don’t
normally have a messy toot plus keep in mind the fact that I had this messy toot while I was
still in bed and not while I was in the middle of going to the bathroom. Again I don’t normally
have a messy toot at that time of the night, most of the instances I have a messy toot not while
going to the bathroom usually occur during the day while I’m up and around.
And speaking about the time my dad went down to the casino last Friday, I found out in the
end that we should have made him stay home because he came out with a lot less than the amount
he went in with. My mom went to the casino in Cloverdale two afternoons ago while I was with you
and she came out with $40 less than the amount she went in with. She also did her grocery
shopping that same afternoon as well as stop at Safeway to pick up my chicken cobb salad to have
for supper that night and the big smartie cookie for dessert since I didn’t get my Valentines
Day cake. My mom took her time that afternoon when picking out the smartie cookie and she got me
a more colourful one this time that had four yellow smarties and four green smarties. Some of
the ones I had before had mostly brown smarties and therefore weren’t all that colourful, I
guess my mom didn’t think until two days ago to take more time and pick out one for me that had
more green smarties and just grabbed one the last couple times before. My mom also got when she
went shopping that day:
-two HAPPY PLANET smoothie drinks for me to try, one strawberry flavour and one raspberry
flavour.
-two bottles of cranberry juice, one Save-On brand and one new brand to try called
“OASIS.”
-and I told you that last time I ran out of Hawkins Cheesies, instead of having my mom get me
more I had her get me that bag of Doritos to try instead. Well, lots of things were on sale
Monday so she got a bag of Hawkins Cheesies and another bag of Doritos. My parents like to eat
the cheesies and the Doritos for their snacks sometimes too.
At my snack time last Saturday afternoon (afternoon on the 16th), I wacked my Terry’s
Chocolate Orange that I got for Christmas. I threw it down on the kitchen counter four times
before it broke open. I had the first five pieces of that orange for my snack that afternoon and
there’s enough of it left for three more snacks. Terry’s Chocolate Oranges are dark chocolate
BTW. I opened the box of Walkers shortbread cookies that I got for Christmas and had a couple of
those for dessert after lunch earlier that same day (Saturday) and I had a “Kellogg's
Holiday RICE KRISPIES SQUARE” also leftover from Christmas for dessert after lunch on
Monday (the 18th). didn’t want a cookie for dessert at lunch that day knowing that I
would be having one after supper and I’ll let you know that I like those “Holiday KRISPIES
SQUARES” which have “RICE KRISPIES” in them that are dyed red and green for Christmas using red
and green food colouring. For my snack Saturday evening (the 16th), I had Carr’s
crackers (the same ones I had almond butter on) with garlic sausage, sliced dill pickles,
and the following flavours of VERGEER KAAS brand cheese from Costco; Edam and Gouda. I told you
I had both kinds of polar ice chocolates for my afternoon snack last Monday (the 11th),
for my afternoon snack yesterday I had some of the other stuff we got from the bulk section at
Save-On before Christmas. Yesterday I had half of the chocolate Hershey kisses that were l
eft (I had ten altogether yesterday) as well as two chocolate fudge bells and this time mom
unwrapped it all before she gave it to me in a small dish. I tried the strawberry flavour HAPPY
PLANET drink with my bulk stuff yesterday afternoon instead of having my cranberry juice and I
liked it, I had cashews for my evening snack yesterday, and I had the raspberry flavour HAPPY
PLANET drink with my afternoon snack today.
My mom didn’t tell me until a few days ago that when she went shopping last Monday
afternoon (the 11th), she saw that they had boxes of 3 ply Kleenex on sale so she picked up
some of those for me. I prefer 3 ply rather than 2 ply because I find that 3 ply is heavier and
lasts longer.
The yard waste truck came by our place yesterday afternoon to pick up our yard waste. They’re
suppose to come around our neighbourhood every Monday but for some reason they didn’t show up on
Monday (the 18th).
Remember when we went for our walk two afternoons ago you grabbed a brochure for
Assist2Sell
when we walked by a house they had up for sale. After you left that afternoon, my mom told me
that’s who Carol went with when she moved last Spring. Now I know where I heard it before,
remember I told you that the name sounded familiar to me but two days ago was the first time you
heard about them.
And speaking about Carol, remember I told you that the car she currently drives now is a 2007
Toyota Yaris. She had been driving an old 1992 Ford for many years until almost two years ago
when she leased the Yaris. She even named the cat she has now “Yari” after the Yaris. Whenever
her ex-husband comes over now, as soon as he sees the cat he says to her “hi Toyota.” Speaking
about cars now, I caught that commercial on TLC again a few nights ago when my mom was watching
her “Trading Spaces.”
This time when they played that commercial, my mom said that when it does come time for you to
get a new car maybe you’ll get one of those Microsoft-powered cars by Mercury and then we could
cruise around in it. I told you that I want to make it through my life without riding in a
Volkswagen or a convertible and that my dream car might be the Honda Prelude, I might get off my
butt one day though and research more cars when I get time to see if there’s anything else I
might like besides the Honda Prelude that I could get in manual transmission with two doors and
no sunroof. Speaking about VW, also notice in the attached message where I say “See my evil
Volkswagen being loaded.” Maybe you have a least favorite car, and if so what is it?
We noticed a hose sticking out of the wall below the two urinals in the men’s washroom when I
went in there with my dad halfway through the meeting last Thursday. My dad thought that’s
probably there to clean the floor. Ever seen anything like this before!
Remember Dr. McKibbin was surprised that I like
McDonald's after learning that I don’t like loud noises, I then told him about the McDee's
location by me in South Surrey that has the dark table I like to sit at in the quiet corner by
the fireplace. Speaking about dark tables, maybe next time we eat at that Wendy's we’ll hit it
at the right time and we’ll get that dark table in the corner where the surrounding tables were
crowded. And now we know that Wendy's we ate at last week is worth going back to because we
don’t have to be buzzed into or need to get a key from the counter to get into the washrooms. I
also remember you asked me last Thursday if I prefer McDonald's Chicken McNuggets or Wendy's
Crispy Chicken Nuggets, I have Wendy's almost as often as I have McDonald's so it’s kind of hard
to say and I guess I therefore don’t have a preference. I previously told you that I think Dairy
Queen shakes have to be my preference out of DQ, McDonald's, and A&W shakes. That’s milkshakes
for you, and you know that my favorite fish and chips would be White Spot’s unless if maybe
you’d count those ones I told you my parents had when we stayed in Ocean Shores because I wasn’t
feeling well and couldn’t enjoy them. Since I never had those fish and chips when I was well
enough to enjoy them, I couldn’t tell you whether I’d prefer those ones or if I’d prefer White
Spot’s. All I remember was that those were good fish and chips they had at the Sand Castle
restaurant in Ocean Shores, Washington state and that I probably would have enjoyed them if I
felt up to having them that night.
At A&W on Friday, I will order a whistle dog, medium fries, and a medium Sprite.
Remember after I told you two days ago that “if Raynor does stay longer on Friday we could make
bagels instead of going out to A&W for lunch,” you then said it’s always good to have a "plan B"
just like I had an another alternate plan incase I didn't get my Valentines cake. Since I didn’t
get my Valentines cake, my mom instead got me a “Triple Chocolate Torte” last Friday to have for
dessert after my Chinese food which is just a single slice of triple-layer milk chocolate fudge
cake. And if we have to discuss any heavy stuff after Raynor leaves this coming Friday, either I
could sit on the couch with my laptop typing up notes so that I'll remember everything we talked
about for when I send you an E-mail after our visit or I could just pencil my notes onto a scrap
piece of paper again. That’ll just be another of our usual three and a half hour visits if we do
10AM to 1:30PM that day, don’t forget that we should also switch to Friday the week of March
14th instead of you coming Thursday that week because my next appointment with
Dr. McKibbin is that day and maybe I'll want White
Spot for lunch then. The day of the meeting last Thursday, I was with you 9AM to 2:30PM so
that’s one regular three and a half hour visit plus two hours of the time that we didn’t use the
week after Boxing Day. I think we still got one hour left of that unused time. My mom’s birthday
is coming up on March 1st and she was wondering if you might like to have supper with me one
night around then while my dad takes her out for a birthday supper. I so far have come up with
two ideas on my own as to how we could go about that depending which of the two days I have in
mind might work better for you:
1) If my dad takes her out on her actual birthday (Saturday) we could pickup Safeway
Chinese food, bring it back to my place and eat it there, and then my mom says she has two Angel
food cake mixes sitting in the cupboard so if she makes up one of those before that day we could
each have a piece for dessert.
OR
2) We could go out for natchos. And since there is no longer a Moxie's in South Surrey, either
we could go to Boston Pizza or if my parents decide to go some place in Langley for their dinner
all four of us could ride together in one vehicle and then my parents could drop us off at
Moxie's before they go and have their dinner. Now if we decide on natchos, I think that next
Thursday (the 28th) might be better because think about the crowds that would be at
places like Moxie's and Boston Pizza on Friday and Saturday nights.
I’m thinking that maybe we could go to Dairy Queen for our snack on Monday afternoon while
Serena (and I’m sure that this would probably be the correct spelling for her name), the
behavioral specialist, visits with my parents and checks out our home environment to see what my
living conditions are like. She comes at 1:30PM that day and on the days you and I go out for
our snack we usually leave at around 1:45PM, I’ll probably have either a Banana Split or a
milkshake at DQ. Now Serena said that she doesn’t have to see me this time and she might make
another appointment after that to come back and see me, but after that I don’t like the idea of
continuing working with and seeing a behavioral specialist on a regular basis. I don’t think
that’s necessary, especially once I’m living with Carol if I could live with her. And Serena had
to go somewhere else to make her call when she phoned my mom last Monday morning (the
18th) to set up our appointment for next week because the phones in the FVMH building were down
at that time.
My dad phoned home around 10:20AM this morning to let my mom know that he thought maybe he
had a little gum infection so he went to see our dentist (Dr. Lee in Fleetwood) and just
before he got to the dentist’s office, a little popcorn kernel that got stuck between his teeth
had fallen out. The dentist told my dad a few minutes later that the popcorn kernel was
irritating his gum and there was a tiny bump there.
When my mom went to answer the phone at around 10:20AM this morning when my dad called, Chloe
jumped up on the phone desk in our kitchen and then was snooping around the desktop. Chloe’s
never acted like this before and didn’t start acting like so until just recently, my mom says
that “she’s starting to become more like Izzy.” My mom opened the compartment underneath one of
our coffee tables in the living room this afternoon to put some stuff away and while she had it
open Chloe sat inside. And a couple funny Izzy stories for you:
-Just after I came out of the bathroom after my afternoon snack today, I saw Izzy on the kitchen
counter right by the sink playing with a wine cork.
-And last Wednesday afternoon (afternoon of the 13th), Izzy was sitting up on the
fireplace mantel in the living room.
My dad phoned my grandpa (his dad) on the evening of the 16th (Saturday) who
told him that my aunt (my dad’s sister, Karen) slipped and hurt her foot the night
before. After her husband (my uncle Robert) left for work Saturday morning, her foot was
still hurting so she phoned Robert's mom who then brought over an old set of crutches that she
had at her house and then she took Karen down to the clinic where she (Karen) works. They
took an X-ray and it turned out that she had a broken bone in the top of her foot. They told her
to take it easy.
My dad talked to my uncle on the phone last Monday evening (February the 11th). He
told my dad that he flew back home while my cousin stayed in Edmonton. They didn’t run into any
snow except just a few small bits in places. He said that my cousin was suppose to start his new
job the first day after the “Family Day” holiday in Alberta which would have been Monday
(the 18th), so therefore he probably started his new job yesterday. The rest of my cousin’s
family might join him in Edmonton some time around Easter Break if his new job goes well. Good
Friday is March 21st BTW speaking about Easter Break. They towed my cousin’s vehicle behind the
big truck they rented, so you could imagine their gas bill climbing. My uncle wasn’t feeling
well ever since he came home that weekend, he had vertigo which makes him dizzy and makes him so
that he can't stand up straight. My uncle also told my dad that same evening that his younger
son and Michael's younger brother, my cousin Paul, and his wife, Agnes, were away in Cuba. Agnes
is a stewardess so she gets discounts on flights.
We had two junk phone calls last Saturday morning (the 16th). We also got a few
recorded junk messages each on separate evenings a few times before that day so after the junk
calls on Saturday I asked my mom why we get so many of those, especially lately, and she says
that she doesn’t know but guesses that “we’re just lucky.” And remember
in the long message that I sent you on Tuesday
Feb.5,2008 I told you about the recorded message we got that
said “Concept 2 Lighting owes money.” Well since then we got that same recorded message two more
times, once one evening last week and they phoned us with the recorded message again yesterday
morning. This time when they phoned us yesterday morning, my mom wrote down the information they
gave which includes their hours and when to call.
We’ve been getting lots of phone calls ever since David passed away a little more than two
years ago from people who didn’t know that he passed away. We also got a letter in the mail
almost one year ago summoning him for jury duty.
See you Friday at 10AM.
