I remember one time we went in the Dollar store and we went to go up one of the isles and there was a group of Iranians sitting on the floor looking at something i said what the heck and you started saying real loud lalalalalarel fast they all stopped what they were doing and i said what was that you said it was a chant they do a war cry I laughed the whole time thru the store you were laughing to my sides were hurting I think of it now and still laugh miss these times

Well my car was broke down and I was wondering how I'm gonna get back and forth I remember you and I went to a garage sale and you said Mar look a bike its only 5 dollars I said I'm gonna get it drive it back and forth to work ,I remember how u tightend everything up for me it was ready so that mon morning you called to see if I was gonna drive my bike to work me so excited said yes I am I'm gonna lock it up in the bike rack at work and what good excersise it will be you said call me when u get to work let me know how it was riding the bike,well off I go birds singing sun shinning and I'm in my glory when all of a sudden my butt starts hurting the seat is so hard the road isn't so smooth and I'm bopping up and down traffic coming I couldn't go in road to avoid the long tree branches hanging down and had to drive threw them when that's not bad enough my pant leg gets caught in chain I had to stop get that out roll up the one leg,After taking off again I contine with one pant leg up hair a mess from the branches my butt sore from the seat when all of a sudden the seat starts losing up I had to start riding the bike without sitting so I'm in a stand up position I'm sweating now almost in tears stop to twist seat to tighten ,get it tight to tired to stand and drive bare the pain of the seat when my work bag keeps fallen off my shoulder .well I make it to work can barley walk my hair a mess looking a mess I called you to let you know that what have been a nice ride turned out to be a nightmare and I felt like I have been molested and looked like it to you said how are u gonna get home cause you had a Dr appt and couldn't pick me up.well work ended and I borrowed a blanket from work folded it put it on the seat but it didn't help much I made it about a block from work the seat started to come lose I was about to cry when I heard a beep and I couldn't believe it there u were I was never so happy to see u you threw the bike in the back and gave me a ride home we both laughed about the whole thing as I told you I was so thankful to see you that day

Your car was broke down and you needed a ride to walmart  it was dark out and I hate driving at nite but you always give me rides and help me so I took you ,well you were white knuckled because I was on the wrong side of the road I remember you saying what the heck you doing I said I have night blindness you were like well if I knew that I would of walked I said well that's why I didn't tell you because it was to far and cold to walk I think you smoked a couple ciggerettes in a row when I dropped you off to calm your self down

It's a little past midnight but it's been a year ago that I was able to spend some long over due time with my little brother Steve and Mary my sister. I remember picking Steve up at his house and then putting Mary's address into my Garmin. At the time I put her address in I told Steve the Garmin wouldn't always take the shortest route so speak up at anytime and let me know the shortest route to Mary's. We talked a bit on the way there and when we finally arrive and picked Mary up we somehow got on the subject of the route I took. Steve of course told her how I took the long way there instead of the shorter way. Hmmm I wonder why i didn't listent to my little brother? Oh yeah he never told me the short cut. I still smile when I think of that portion of the day. 

We then began our trip to get our souvenier mugs. On the way I stopped and got some coffee and bought some donuts just in case Steve and Mary were hungry. They both weren't hungry and Stevie even told me how he already ate breakfast. So I ate my donought and left the rest in the car. Soon we were in line to get out mugs and I spotted a Mac and Cheese bite truck at Saratoga that I had never seen before. I commented on how they sounded great and the price was low for the race track. Suddenly Stevie says he is getting some Mac and Cheese bites..of course Mary reminds him of the uneaten donuts but Stevie wants to Mac bites and of course he shares. I can't tell you how funny this whole trip was or even how much fun I had in those few hours. Of course Mary almost got run over by a golf cart looking for Stevie. We had a good laugh over that and about Mary trying to sneak into another line and running away when the cashier steps out and screams "NOOOO she already bought extra tickets" We had so much fun that day and looking back I realize how blessed I was to have that day with my brother. In all those years I've gone back that was the day and the year I spent more time with Stevie. We even had fun taking our nephews money in a friendly poker game. I saw my little brother more that trip and spend more time talking to Stevie in that one weekend then I had in years. I guess there was a reason but at the time I didn't know it. I did really love that day and was happy to have it.  I love you brother and I love those Mac and Cheese bites too. Thanks for sharing. I  will always remember that small amount of time with you and hold onto it.

Love ya,

Danny     

I was remembering when you lived with me on mrytle ave ,you had bought a bunch of candy off the kids selling them from school ,you were getting ready for the football on tv you opened up all the candy put it in a dish then you asked chris to walk to the store with you and left the big dish of candy on the bed and you and chris headed to the store when you got back i heard a scream i was like whats the matter you said that dam dog ate all that candy i hope he gets so sick from it ,I said were was it you said on the bed but i said why would u leave it uncovered and the bed room door open you were so made you said i paid 50 dollars worth of candy well i hope it was good candy and i was glad the dog didnt get sick ,That was some exspensive candy

I Remember i had talked mom into letting me stay home from school cause i didnt want to go i talked her into letting me do the ironing so she let me we were having a good morning i was ironing and she was doing her thing and i remember thinking how nice it was ,When all of the sudden the mail slot on the door went up and caught moms eye she walked over to the door and low and behold she opened the door real quick and in fell the twins she was so mad my nice day ended cause she looked at me and said its because of u not going to school now the twins wont go she was so mad and said she was calling our father and that she was gonna put us in a home because we didnt want to go to school at that time we didnt know she really wouldnt put us in a home so me and the twins jetted out the door heading who knows where ,I remember saying to the twins why the heck didnt you guys go to school and they said its not  fair you got to stay home ,well we walked around a little when Bo decides hes gonna get something for mom so we went to fays and he picked her up dippetty doo stevie got her bobby pins, I Dont remember what i got if anything it was because of them two that they wrecked the whole day,Well we headed home and slowley went in the house Bo and stevie gave her the dippetty doo and bobby pins and all was well  . 

I was thinking back to the time Dad and Mom were not home so you got out dads carton of cig.and u carefully opened the them up from the bottom slide the pack out and took 3 to 4 cigs,out of each pack and I would slide the pack back in slowly and we did this to all the packs and u put a little glue on each bottom put them back in the carton how we laughed u had the perfect idea ,well i felt so bad about a week down the road when dad came in from the store so mad and was telling mom how he went to the store were he bought them and yelled at him becouse every time he opened a pack there was 3 to 4 cigs missing from every pack and when the guy at the stoe opened a pack sure enough there was some missing he apologised to dad and said it must be a factory mistake and gave him some cigs.to make up for all the missing ones. Wow we said no way we would say it was you who came up with the idea cause we knew that belt would of had our name written all over it lol

I was thinking back when we were kids and we were laying on the floor watching tv and u fell asleep I found a small bead or a pea on the floor and I was looking at u sleeping on your side and playing with the tiny pea in my hand and all of a sudden I was like I wonder if I dropped this pea in his ear if it well go right threw ,Well it didn't go threw u woke up screaming and boy did I get in trouble .So I'm sorry I did that I didn't know any better so later on down the road I had a little bead and I was wondering if I smelled it real hard could I pick it up with my nose and oh yea it went right up I got so scared I kept blowing my my nose so hard it came out

Thinking back to last Aug.when me you and dan took a ride out to the race track to get the mugs and the long lines and u got out of line and dan and i asked u were u were going and u said to go get some mac bites ,Dan and i had no idea what they were, Well the line kept moving and i kept saying to dan were is he i dont see him so i stepped out of line and dan yelled mary as i turned around there was a man on a golf cart inches from me good thing he had good brakes ,I said i almost got ran over worrying about u .But then there u came walking with a smile on your face and mac bites in your hand and offered me and dan some it was the first time we have ever had them and boy were they good.I think back now and realize how special that day was talking sharing the mac bites me making you and dan laugh when i went up to the second lady to try to get some extra mugs.Im so glad we had that time together.
