Best Valentines gift

Hihi diz iz O T and da gramby iz crozz postink again but it iz wort it diz
times.

I went into work today and one of the cleaning crew a man about 35 but only
about 12 in actions came up to me. He has Downs Syndrome and is pretty hard
to understand. I have tried to talk to him and we are friends.

He had his hand behind his back and said "You no one's sweetheart"? I said
Well, not at the moment." He said you can be mine until you get one. He then
gave me a plastic box filled with silk type Red Rose petals. The clearance
price of .10 was still on the box but at that moment, they were priceless.

It just doesn't get much better than that.

Micki is a caregiver for people in that general group (no Downs
Syndrome in the group home right now) and she treats them like family.
They are wonderfull people. So is Micki. They love Bear and our cats,
but mostly Bear.

Most of the cleaning crew have mental handicaps but they are all lovely
people. Some of them can be trying at times and their supervisors have
their hands full. I never go into work without getting a hug and, when I
give them a free soda or coffee, I RULE!

Yes. She was my landlady when we lived in West Haven. When she wanted
to sell the house and buy the condo, she needed a partner and poker
had been very good to me. So we share the condo and Bear and the cats.
And now the parrots, which were her idea.

In the summer, I give them gift certificates from Dairy Queen. Someone from
his group home takes them for the mice cream. Have to give them enough for
all ten kids but, well worth it.
