Neighbors, Sweet!

Memorable Automobiles from The Past:

  1935 Alpha Romero (that would be a cool dude to tool around in!

NOTE:  Yes Myra,  that was Shirl in the background of the photo of our friend Ann some entries back.. She and Shirl were buddies.

For today:

I was playing in the basement when Sherry called me to come up stairs. I was surprised to have a visit from the (attack) dog owners. It was both the neighbor and her son. They apologized profusely. The mother (who had been walking the dog) said neither of them slept much the night after the attack. She said son Todd cried and cried, nothing like that had ever happened in the 6 years they had had the dog.

Todd who is a great guy in his late 20s, (I would ID him a midget or a Small Person.) I have talked to him a couple times. He said he would pay any and all costs and Dr. Bills. He wanted to give us money for a Steak Dinner and said he would gladly come down and roll out our garbage from now on.

Todd gave us ALL of their phone numbers to call them when we got bills or if anything came up requiring ANYTHING, PLEASE CALL. He said, “I know nothing can make this BETTER, but please let us do anything to make it easier on you guys.”

The mother noticed the blood on the porch and drive and she would come down and scrub that out. (I said NO to the cleaning and garbage roll out.) The young man just hugged me and cried. He said you will not see the dog again. I will keep him in the house or back yard where he will do his business. He will not see anyone thru the blinds and bark because we will keep them closed.

Both had tears in their eyes as they apologized. Todd is such a ‘sweet’ guy. WE learned they are originally from Connecticut. He said he waited on the porch until after dark to catch us on the way back from the ER, but we must have come another way, and we did.

It is easy to forgive someone who is OBVIOUSLY VERY sincere, and I would hate to have bad feelings with our neighbors. AND at least we know them much better now.

PS: I am pleasantly surprised, there has been NO PAIN in the area of the Wrist damage. The PA just covered the hole left by the missing chunk and did a good job making it look smooth. I told her I wanted a bragging scar for the old folk, but she said no way!

Lastly:  Do you see anything wrong in this picture. He is trying to get the correct weight here.  ;-)
