Three thoughts

1. Most of us, at sometime, have problems falling asleep. As a woman, I think men have less of a problem with this. Sometimes, I swear my husband falls asleep in as few as 4 breaths. I remember my dad being like that too. But today, I was really shocked. I was giving him a haircut and shaving him. It's a weekly thing, that takes about 5 minutes, tops. I had already cut his hair, and was trimming up his beard, and his head went to the side and Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! Amazing. Was it because he is a man? old? or just plain tired? I kept on shaving him, and I guess he was startled awake by a hair pull... OWWW! I finished him up, and he needed help with his walking/balance back to his room. By the time I threw the blanket on him he was snoring again.

2. During my endless rambling with him while he was eating breakfast today, my dad told he that he was going to be 62 on his birthday in January. I told him if that was true, he had me when he was 9. That gave him a big smile and the house was filled with his LOUD LAUGHTER!

3. My son left to go back to college a while ago. When he said goodbye to his "papa", my dad said, "see ya later. I'll be thinking about you, pal."

The mind. I'm not even going to try and figure these three things out.
