Another day on the little boat with my son Michael.
For the last 4 weeks now we have woken up early just to fish and hang out.
The bonding time we are having is something I didn’t expect but he has asked to get more time with me on the weekends. I’ll take whatever and I feel there is more to it but if he ever wants to open up about things, whatever it is I’m available. I think he is hinting a bit about the stresses he has had with work and the new house he just bought. I feel he should’ve had a better inspector look at the house before it was bought because it feels like there is always an issue with the place. Regardless, he’ll never ask for financial help and I know that but if he just wants to sit in the boat, fish and forget about the world for a few hours a weekend I’m happy to be there. I should say Saturday we go out fishing but today is Friday, I guess he really wanted to have an extended weekend and I’m retired so I have all the time in the world. Unfortunately, this morning his wife called about an issue with their dial thermostat not turning on the heater. I was overhearing and she told Michael that the HVAC company won’t be able to send out anyone till Monday. I saw this as an opportunity to help and like I said he won’t ask for money but I do have a portable space heater sitting in his old bedroom collecting dust so I offered that to him for the weekend. It will do more good with his family than collect dust I feel.
