My dad is getting hearing aid reviews , because he is losing his hearing. He has been fighting it for a long time now, but has finally given in over it. We all had to sit him down and tell him that we are tired of yelling just to speak to him. His life would be so much easier, if he gets a hearing aid. Not to mention, mom won’t have to worry about headaches from the TV being up too loud.
Christmas for my dad
Well I have already ordered one of my dad Christmas presents. I got him some Padron 1926 cigars. They are the some of the best cigars out there and since he doesn’t smoke them that often, I can afford to splurge a bit on him. They are my fathers guilty pleasure. He knows they aren’t really good for you, but just has to have one about once a month. My mom pretends that she doesn’t know, since he is sparing with it. I just laugh, because you only live once, you might as well enjoy a couple of guilty pleasures while you live. After all, you can’t take it with you.
Beds
Well I am buying new bunk beds for the kids. The old ones were second hand and have passed beyond their ability to withstand the children’s roughness. Ergo, new bunk beds are in order. I have known for some time that they would need to be replaced and have put aside the money for it. I have allowed the kids to have some say in what we buy, since it will be theirs. I gave them three choices to choose from and they finally picked one.
I will order the new bunk bed today. It shouldn’t take very long to come in after that. I think I will put it up while they are at school, so they come home to the surprise of a new room. I will make sure delivery is first thing in the morning so that it will be possible to do that. My dad has already agreed to come over with his truck to take down the old ones, and cart them off. I think I am just as excited as the children are.
Storage for mom
When mom found out that I had gotten a storage unit to put all the over flow from the house into it, she decided that she wanted one too. She looked at Bronx self storage units first and liked them a lot, but they were a little farther away than she wanted. Dad is happy that she is clearing out a lot of stuff from their garage. He likes to work in there and all the decorations and such over the years as kind of taken over his guy space.
I told her to look at Brooklyn storage or Richmond storage as they are both closer to her house. Dad just called and is already planning to do a lot of stuff to his garage. He is going to turn it back into his little work shop, now that he will have the room to do it. I know that he is ecstatic about it, because he keeps calling me to tell me everything he is going to do.
