Where's the funeral home?

Monday we enjoyed a great Christmas Day with Joe and Julie's family at their home! It was Robin's second or third venture outside the house since chemo. She later noted that it felt as if she had slept on our host's couch for half the time we were there. Even so, it was great exercise for her to get out of the house, and it was another day for us to enjoy her renewed propensity for smiling and laughing! Plus there was more (imaginary) toenail painting by Jenna and Mei Lei!

For today's exercise we offered Robin the chance to either go for a walk down the street, or to go for a trip to the grocery store. Robin chose to walk all the way down our street and back which is roughly two hundred yards roundtrip. As we sauntered down the street an automobile pulled up alongside us. The couple in the car was lost and the driver asked for directions to a nearby funeral home. Robin pointed him in the right direction and described the home so that it would be easy to identify.

No sooner had the car pulled away than Robin smiled mischievously at Dad and I and said with an infectious laugh "What? Do I look like someone who should know where the funeral home is?"


She's just too funny sometimes and there's really no option but to laugh with her!
