Travis’ last day at the ‘funny farm’ was Monday, and I’m pleased to report that we got him moved to his new apartment, where the IKEA furniture we put together last week was waiting for him. The move wasn’t too bad, but he did need help, since he really did have a ton of shit … Continue reading Moving Day for Travis

Assembling the IKEA Furniture
Me and Keaton went with Travis on Tuesday to IKEA to get him some furniture for the apartment next door to Keaton’s, which is where he’s gonna be moving next week when he finishes up the program in the place in El Monte where he’s been living and doing a great job of getting over … Continue reading Assembling the IKEA Furniture
A Visit to IKEA with Travis
So Travis took my and Keaton’s advice and he’s moving into the apartment next door to Keaton’s. Juan Diego wanted to paint and change the carpet and shit like that, so the apartment wasn’t going to be ready on the 1st like we thought. That worked out, since Travis still has a few days left … Continue reading A Visit to IKEA with Travis
A Visit to Dodger Stadium with the Boys
The boys were only in their second week of school when Robert surprised me by saying that I was gonna get to take the boys to Dodger Stadium on the night of September 1…Robert somehow knew that it was Corey Seager’s bobblehead night, and also somehow knew that I really like Seager as a player, … Continue reading A Visit to Dodger Stadium with the Boys
Adam’s 26th Sobriety Anniversary Party
Adam’s sobriety party was at 8 on his anniversary date, the 23rd, so I didn’t get to stay with the boys the night of their first day of school. All the Parrots were able to make it, except for Dave, who moved to Las Vegas because this was no town to be a waiter during … Continue reading Adam’s 26th Sobriety Anniversary Party
Back to School
So the first day of school is here, and, yes, Matteo’s going back. If he turns out to have trouble, they can always bring him back home and get him another tutor. That’s Maya’s reasoning, and, although I don’t get a vote (like Joyce has said a million times), I think it’s the right decision. … Continue reading Back to School
Should Matteo Go Back to School? (last part)
My summer routine for the boys has us alternating between working on skills with them individually and then the three of us just having fun together, mostly in the pool, but there’s a lot you can do around the Sharpmans to keep a couple boys engaged. We even started playing board games to get us … Continue reading Should Matteo Go Back to School? (last part)
Should Matteo Go Back to School? (part 2)
When I got back to the house from Joyce’s, and after I had what’s become my regular morning swim without the kids around to distract me from getting a good workout, I went to Sandy’s office and knocked on the doorframe. “Hunter!,” she said, looking up. “What brings you here?” I don’t know why she … Continue reading Should Matteo Go Back to School? (part 2)
Should Matteo Go Back to School? (part 1)
Now that summer’s almost over, I can look back and be pleased that the boys had a good time with me, even if Maya, still being careful about COVID, didn’t ok my suggestion that we go to Disneyland or Six Flags or Dodger Stadium. They had to have with Dr. Peterson some days, too, but, … Continue reading Should Matteo Go Back to School? (part 1)
July 4th, 2021 (last part)
That conversation basically got us to Alhambra and Chuy’s house, which was in full celebration mode. The President, if y’all remember, said that maybe we could have little get togethers for the 4th of July if we all got vaccinated. That was bullshit. Maybe it was a small get together at Maya’s (although we went … Continue reading July 4th, 2021 (last part)
