Dupont:

Back from PA in good shape. I did most of the driving and am fine. We are glad we went. The Amish Mennonite funeral was interesting. I was surprised by attendance of soon-to-be-former DIL and their #2 son, on their own. SIL was glad we came. The only other members of her plentiful family who spoke to me were her two sons who gave wonderful presentations about my bro as their father. One other very dear friend of SIL surprised me by coming and giving me a hug and a nice chat. Political differences...

Time with #2 son was good; he took us to lunch and we went back to our "home" and he spent about 8 hours with R and I, telling me a bunch of stuff I did/did not that upset him. R did a wonderful job of mediating; he has known my son for 50 years and explained very clearly that son's "engineer mind" thought it was explaining things to me but only another engineer might have understood - more or less! I am exonerated but missed out on spending a great deal more time with the grands because of the lack of clear communication. Water over the dam/spilt milk...   

On Sat, we, with son and his partner, had a last visit with SIL to give her more support before we left. Son did some computer help for her. We did not, however, manage to find the Parshall history book or the older family photos. Son has designated himself our family archivist.

Then we headed north until time to sleep. On Sunday, we had brunch near Albany with friends, went to see a building somewhere in upper NYS that had interest to R, then booted it on home, arriving at 7 pm and I went to bed!! Spent today deleting emails as I never opened computer for four days!

Laundry caught up today, folded and ready to go upstairs.

Surprised by what SRS found on Amen. I only saw his excellent ADHD materials, and Change your Brain Change Your Life.
