Hey Kid,
Talk to the hand. No, Iโm just fooling. I was just thinking about the old days when we would get your mom laughing so hard that I seriously thought she was going to wet herself over the whole โtalk to the handโ business. You know it was memorable because she still tells people about it even now.

Do you know, we went to the dentist office the other day? Can you believe that I have never actually gone along to this new, well now itโs old, since they nearly succeeded in killing your Ma off while we were there, dentist office? Iโm so glad that I went along this time, because otherwise I would have never gotten to see the cute little furry squirrel that that have there. Kid, I gotta tell you, that might have been the fattest squirrel that I have EVER seen. Iโm so glad that I went back with your sister so that I could see how the dentist did things in that office or I totally would have missed out on the squirrel. He was sitting there just outside the window (They have these big tall windows in the office there.) when I first got back there. But as your sister and I watched, that squirrel walked right up to the glass, laid his little paws on the pane and pressed his tragic little face to the glass. We found out that that is because he was trying to get the ladies there to feel sorry for him and to come out and give him some more nuts! Now we know how he got to be such a little chunker! He had that long, sorry, sad face just down pat. He couldโve given a dog a run for their money with that sad look upon his face. Then, it looked like it was knocking on the glass! I really thought your sister was going to pass out or something she was laughing so hard. I for one was very torn. Because part of me felt kind of bad for the hungry squirrel, but the other part of me was worried that if that squirrel gets any fatter and tries to cross a road, he could be so slow that he could be toast! And that would be a real shame for such an interesting and entertaining squirrel to be lost to us. I wish that I had thought to go outside and ask the squirrel if I could interview him for my blogโฆ..
Well, I should probably get off of here for right now. I know your Ma here has other things that she needs to get working on. Just know, if I could type, for sure I would give you lots more details on whatโs going around around here. But more on that next time. Just know that we are rooting for you kid and we are counting down the days with you.
Your very own co-Conspirator,
Frank
