Mom and I have the hardest time with my dad. He’s a great guy, don’t get me wrong, but in his old age he’s gotten really crazy with all his hairbrained ideas about where and what to do with his retirement. Obviously my mom is along for the ride and it’s been challenging for them! I helped them move all their stuff to Texas last year since dad had this new notion of being a cowboy. I was excited for them and even helped them go to ShopElectricityRatesTexas.com/ and get all kinds of utilities set up before I left because I thought they’d finally settle down. Nope! Dad’s still loving the ranch thing but he’s also all about international travel right now. I mean seriously, international travel, at his age? So he and mom are going to Alaska later in the year and then headed from there to Japan. I can’t really imagine them in such a foreign environment but you know whatever makes them happy is good enough for me I guess!
