An interesting thing

Came to Whitehouse the other day with Ben to help get his car going and finalize a deal for Heather’s brother’s pickup. I can’t say how much help I was with Ben’s car.

He didn’t need me. Which is an interesting thing.

He is a much more mechanical native than I am. And a much better mechanic. But I got to make snide comments and hand him tools from time to time. We want our kids to not need us while we want them to need us at the same time.

Headed out this morning after helping Ben move his things back into his dorm room. Going to visit Mama in Fort Worth.

Home soon. I think I’m ready.
