Chapter 36

Shortly after that, my sister bought a row house nearby as an investment and moved us into that. I cannot comprehend the kindness, but she did and followed through with even more kindnesses. Somehow, we stumbled along.

Archie got locked in the bathroom. I had a friend build a darkroom in the basement. A hose burst in the basement, spraying steam all over, and I had to call the fire department. The firemen fixed it and managed not to laugh directly into my face. I was grateful; so helpless, so untrained.

I also am grateful to my niece and nephews for putting up with me and including us in their lives to this day.
