This is Julian

8am and the door bell rings, the dog barks and I must deal with it. It's Julian. Julian was suppose to come over at 11am and do some yardwork with me. "I know Scott, I know, but Suzie said I could work tomorrow at her house so I can work all day here with you." Great Julian, I said, wiping the sleep from my eyes. Start weeding the front yard and I'll make coffee. Want some? "No thanks, Scott, water will be just fine. I'm sorry I woke you up but Suzie said to come tomorrow to her house so I can work all day for you..." Julian would repeat this several more times this morning. Julian is not wired like you and me. He lives alone with his brother, Mario, who has diabetes and a lot of other complicated medical conditions that render him immobile, so Julian has become his caregiver.

2pm Julian wants 3 small burgers from McDonalds for lunch. If it's later, he will want 3 for himself and 3 for Mario. He will also want to pay for them. He will have exact change.

4pm I drove Julian home since he rode the bus to get here. He will tell me in great detail all the work he did today at my house...then repeat is several more times in the 15 minutes to his apartment. I'll ask him how much do I owe him and he will reply "Oh Scott, whatever you think, $17 or $13. I say it sounds good to me as I hand him the $80. that I had rolled up in my pocket. He will not count it and will probably just hand it to Mario without looking at it.
Julian is the best worker I have ever had the pleasure of working with with a constant smile and a servants heart.
This is Julian...one of my favorite people.
