David and his first car
David has been upset in the evenings, because of the programming on TV. With all the shows available on cable, I haven't found anything that he wants to watch. He's had a couple of melt downs because he says the choices on evening TV are so awful (I agree). I also think he's having difficulty following the stories.David and his mother
Yesterday I went to the store and bought two old funny slap stick movies, which he loved watching last night. I loved hearing him laugh! Our daughter suggested Netflix, so I ordered All In the Family, Red Skelton, HeeHaw and Carol Burnett. He loved these TV shows many moons ago, and I think he'll enjoy seeing them again. No complicated or violent stories, just laughter!
And I say, "thank you God for laughter."
P.S. - Our son in law, grandson, and Cassandra Grace are in the air right now, and will arrive in Houston around midnight. I pray for their safe travel......

Hi Dolores...Look at that Chevy! I'm sure David was very proud of it!
Netflix is a great idea ....lots to choose from. We belong to something similar to that. We really do enjoy it.
I have you and your family in my prayers. Cassandra Grace is coming to a wonderful family.
Friends,
Susannah
Your family is in my prayers. And that is a wonderful picture.
Being hard to handle at night is normal . I am sure you know that.It is called sundowners I think. Mom starts talking up a storm at night. Bugs us to death. But I like it better than when she just sits and stairs . If not for her bedtime meds. she would talk all night. Good luck and watch some great old movies. I love those.

I think your Netflix shows sound like a great idea. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that David will enjoy these TV shows. I hope your family members had a safe trip. Congratulations on your new granddaughter.
Hugs,

I love the pic of David with that car! What a classic! :-)
What a great idea to join Netflex and take control of what you have to watch!
I'm hoping Cassandra and family are safe at home now!! :-)
Love you!
