I dropped by Mom and Dad's after work today. Dad was in the bedroom lying on the bed. Mom was washing up dishes. She started telling what a bad and nasty mood "your father" was in. He apparently snapped at her because she wouldn't give him a cookie. She made the mistake of taking him to the nearby mall. It's too far for her to push him in the walker. That's right - I said "walker". The kind with the seat, but not really meant for sitting in. I guess she thought it would be a nice walk. Except Dad walks very slowly. And tires quickly. So getting there was one thing. But then she had to get him home. Too far.
I took Dad to the same mall, except I drove us there. It gave Mom a chance to close her eyes. At least for an hour. He really enjoyed going for a stroll, looking around, seeing what was on sale. We bought 2 chocolate bars from the drugstore. He saw in the flyer "1 for 99 cents and the 2nd for 1 penny". It was a bargain for sure. And Dad loves a good bargain.
