Glad your brother is okay. I suffer from anxiety, too. So I feel you.

I guess it is a somewhat 'easy' fix but he will also need to get the fender repaired.

We are the last two of our immediate family and I am always afraid I will lose him, too.

i was forced to change a tire, something i have not done in forever, but do know how to do.
i didnt tighten the lugs down again after i set the car down. i drove it the next day, heading to madison from chi. as i pulled into the thankfully empty last toll booth before the border, my l fr tire went rolling on ahead of me as i ground to a halt. even in the moment i cracked up. it was just like a cartoon. the attendant nearly died.
the funniest part of it was that i was headed to madison w my dog, thinking i had an appt. when i called to tell them i was delayed, found out i had the wrong day.

So glad he is ok!

Why doesn't he stay with you for a bit?

He is stopping by later this week. We're going to make something tasty with the home made Marinara sauce I've cooked up.

I went outside and did some weeding and major trimming of the trumpet vine. Certainly worked off a bit of stress. Although I'll be taking another shower, today. Whew!

He isn't all that far from me. If I need him, he can generally be here in less than 15 minutes.
