December.  Dayton came over for a 6 hour visit on the 20th, so we could go get some presents from him to give to his mom Xs. Ann, sister Emily, and her BF Scott.  Went to my favorite place for gifts, the local $1 store.  We got them all wrapped in time for his mom’s 09:30PM pickup.  Both Dayton & Emily and BF Scott came by for Christmas day.  Dayton was their 1st at ~09:30AM, came dressed in PJ’s and slippers.  So although it was only 50 degrees out, Dayton was NOT DRESSED for any outdoor activities.  Emily came by later with BF Scott, and stayed until almost 7PM.  And that was the last time I saw or heard from either one of my children the rest of this year.

old Birthday parties, my ultra cool Honda VTX1300 Side Car Motorcycle.  And my most favorite pictures taken this year by my two “favorite” girls. 1) Xs. Ann’s March 8th Divorce "Gately Day" selfie right outside the Daley Court Building, and 2) Emily capturing a picture perfect facial expression of my Favorite Living Father In-Law’s Andrew’s face on his backyard deck.  Every time I see this picture of Andrew,  I know just what he’s thinking…..  We should have gotten daughter Ann , Phyllis’s  P or V happy RX pills.  If Ann lives to be 100 over the course of her entire life it would have been hundred of thousand dollars cheaper then that $120,000.00 “Quickie Divorce” was.
