My brother and I are working on my house. It's looking nice. I made a page for Mr. Big. You might check it out. Have a great rest of the weekend.

My brother and I will probably get to the cemetery Sunday on my dad's side. The rest are buried in OKC. All I have left is my bro, my aunt and my cousin. That's ok. I don't have to deal with parents aging. Also less baggage. That may seem cold. But it's not. Did you see the Iron Maiden movie yet? I haven't.
