Dinner at the Abbott's with Mom and Dad

Hi Fam,
What a week I've had. Mom and dad completed the week by dad leading us into pray and having a wonderful dinner. The dinner was joined by Merlin, Nat, Prince, Dmiteria, Bernadette, Esther, Erica, & Luisito. Pam cooked a good tasting roast pork, which I am still munching on,hmmmmmm, some appetizers, which was almost gone because Merlin and her clan came late. Either way, Thanks Mom and Dad for spending some time with us, and we love you.

A Day at West Point Academy

Hi Fam,

We took to the scenic route this day and went up to the United States Military Academy (aka - West Point). We were treated to a day of historical facts of our founding fathers and how the institution have produced such greats as, Patton, MacArthur, and Buzz Aldrin, etc... Mom and dad was ever the studious ones in the historical aspect of the day. As we can also see Pam getting in the act with the Army Mascot. They are very Gun-ho about their rivalry with the Navy.
On the way back we stopped at our favorite watering hole (GreetTea) and treated mom and dad to some Apple Cider, Magnus and a host of other snacks and appetizers. After that dad and I went to the Bogie down Bronx, where we mixed with the homies and our Ghana brothers at the barber shop. Dad made sure to give a "pound" when we left the spot.
LOL, great day and wonderful people we met and had a good time with. Sorry you couldn't be here, you would have enjoyed it.

Mom & Dad In the Big NYC

Hi Fam,

Want to welcome Mom and Dad to the Big Apple. Today they took to the city and enjoyed a long (I mean long) walk around New York City. Here we have mom and Pam getting ready to get on the Metro North to Grand Central Station. They were treated to a nice train ride, but unfortunately, thrown into the vacuum of New York. Quote from dad, "I've never seen so much people in one place" After that they walked down 6th avenue (Avenue of the Americas) and went to Rockefeller Center to see all the skaters. Tomorrow, more walking and sightseeing for us. I'm already bushed. Night. ps. they blacklisted dad out the pics, but I'll look out and get him in here.

Dad's Doing Okay

Hi Fam,

Wanted to bring some great news to the forum, dad had some minor surgery on his eye this week, but is back home now and doing well.

Knowing dad, he's going to very disappointed he can't drive for the next week, lol, but it's a small price to pay for his vision. Dad will have to be under a strict routine of eye drops for the next year, but with the support of the family, no problem. Love you D, and see you soon.

Great Year for the Family

What a year, I've moved onto a new job with another company, I was blessed to find this and being treated like a person, rather than just an employee. Pam has gotten another promotion at her job and she's doing great, Merlin celebrated her 50th B'day where she was celebrated for her good heart and just her spirit. The Abbott family was finally together all at once and we enjoyed the company of each other. BTW, Erica is heading to college this January to study law at the University of Mohawk in upstate NY & turning 18 in the next 2 days, this is the beginning of the beginning and we all wish her all the best to come.

Got it Done!

Hi Fam,

It's 5:16pm and I'm sitting here in an office waiting for 5:30pm. Last I wrote, I was in the process of acquiring some job possibilities, and here I am now. After 1 year - & 4 months, I am back in the working field. This is someone with an educational background that needs no more education for the rest of his life, so, for all you young cats out there, stay in school and benefit from the lessons the old folks are putting down. I have many persons to thank for while I stove to get a job. One person in particular is Pam. Pam, who have held it down for this long stretch and never once asked or forced me to just take anything that wasn't going to make me happy. I have to thank her and the support she showed me as only a loved one can. This email is more as a gratitude emails as much as a celebration. It's 5:30 now, and I have to shut the office now. Be talking to you soon.
