Not sure what to say?

As most of you know, Barry loved sports but he also like watching them at his own pace. Thanks to DVRs, a game would be over before he even made it to halftime. This would make it really hard for me when watching UGA football games. I would be upstairs cheering and forget he wasn't at that point yet, giving away what was going to happen. We finally compromised, I was allowed to cheer as loud as I wanted to during Georgia games but had to silently cheer during his favorite team, the Falcons, games.

May 13, 2015

Barry always had great ideas, which most of the time left me scratching my head wondering what made him think of that. But one idea that stands out is the time he decided to place flyers in some of the neighbors' mailboxes to see if they wanted to hire him to mow their lawn. With working at home, he needed something else to fill his time in the evenings. I laughed and told him it was crazy, no one was going to hire him. Barry had the last laugh, all 5 accepted his offer and at one time had over 12 customers!
