Where is Uncle Scott?

Joe had gotten into a routine of seeing Uncle Scott in the morning. Ted would carry him into the living room to see Scott on the sofa usually with Raleigh lying on top of him - yes, these were the fine accommodations we offered - we don't call it the Raleigh House for nothing! Though Scott left on Friday, Joe still woke up this Sunday morning and said "Where is Uncle Scott?...I want to see Uncle Scott and Raleigh."
Uncle Scott not only entertained Joe and Clara this past week, but he managed to get two plumbing problems fixed, take apart clean and reassemble the gunked up laundry machine, patch the ceiling crack that irked Ted for the past 5 years, buy groceries, cook dinner all week, cook and freeze two batches of soup, bake 5 batches of cookies for Julie's cookie exchange, clean the house at least twice, do multiple loads of laundry, do our shopping, and a variety of other fun chores around the house! So we are mostly healthy now with a clean house and stocked fridge and freezer thanks to Uncle Scott (but not Raleigh)!
