The Curmudgeon had a rough day. He took a few more tumbles and after he went up to bed, I had to get Kevin from next door to help get him back into bed after he’d gone into the bathroom and collapsed halfway out the door on his way back.

I couldn’t lift him, at that point he already had me exhausted. I bless my next  door neighbors every day since they will come to the rescue any time they are needed.

On the bright side, even though I got turned down for SS on my hours (I lack 40), I got a letter informing me that I now have wife’s benefits! So we now have a bit more coming in each month that might help cover getting some help in.
