Hanging out with Dad

Hey
Have you wondered what in the heck happened to me? Well my husband and I went to the outback bowl on monday with my dad and then we headed south to punta gorda.  my dad moved into a house down there a few months ago and i was anxious to see the place.  my dad purchased the house with most of the household contents.  about the only things that were taken as far as i could tell were photos and clothing.  it is a little overwhelming to move into someone elses place and try to make it yours, so im here to help sort through and help my dad feel more comfortable here.  the house is full of lighthouse knick knacks, towls, pictures, paintings, plates, etc.  we are currently delighthousing the place.ive taken my dad shopping a few times to try to find items that are more his style, but so far we javent had a whole lot of luck.  i will be back home late sunday.  my husband has already gone home as he had work to do.  my phone is not blogger savvy and i cant seem to capitalize or create a paragraph, so i thank you for slogging through this.  my dad doesnt have internet and i havent found an internet cafe yet.  have a great day.   kristin

How sweet of you to help him get his new place in order. Enjoy your time with him.

Well, heck yes, we've been wondering what happened to you. When we come down to North Port to see kids, maybe you can visit your dad in Punta Gorda. (It isn't on the table yet, but we usually escape the cold sometime during the winter.)

Good luck finding some Dad-worthy stuff for him.

Hope all goes well for you down there in Punta Gorda - - - so near FH's old stomping grounds of Fort Myers.
