My daughter is here wanting to help us with things. She is in her forties and is a hard woriker, really strong. And encouraging.
Our big project yesterday was to switch out the tops on Bob's Capri automobiles. Both were made in 1991, but we have worn the first one out. When we moved we were given one that had been sitting idle for fourteen years. Bot originally had cloth tops or rag tops as they are called. Those things deteriorate if you cannot store the cars inside. We cannot.
For each of them we have bought a removable hard top. The problem was that the second top we bought will not shine up pretty. We wanted the nicer looking top on the one we drive so we needed to swap them out.. The tops are not heavy, but they are awkward. It was much easier for my daughter to help finish undoing the bolts and for the three of us to lift the tops and put them on the correct car.
This is just one of many things my daughter has helped with while visiting. It explains where I was yesterday, instead of being here.

I'm glad your daughter can help you with some of the things you and Bob weren't able to do easily by yourselves. Everybody needs a little help now and then.

It would be a real godsend to have a willing and strong helper for a day or two. I'm sure she would be enjoying it too. I always loved being able to help Mum with things she couldn't quite manage on her own.

It's awesome to have a hardworking and strong daughter who's always there to lend a hand! Swapping out those car tops sounds like quite the project, but you all managed to get it done. By the way, next time you tackle a task together, maybe you could plan a mini celebration afterwards to appreciate the hard work and spend some quality time together!

I'm glad your daughter has been able to help you. I sometimes wish we had kids to look after us! I hope you are enjoying the long weekend.
