Such beauties inspire me (just hope Joyce Kilmer doesn’t throttle me!)

I think that I shall never ken
A poem lovely as a hen.

A hen whose hungry mouth is prest
To peck against earth’s sweet flowing breast;

A hen that’s looked at by God all day,
As she lifts her lovely wings to pray;

A hen that may in Summer sit
Upon a nest made of her wit;

Upon whose bosom chicks have lain;
And protect their lives from frozen rain.

Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a hen like thee.

(For the real poem search: Trees by Joyce Kilmer)

The Playlist is Done!
Thank you to everyone who suggested songs. There is over 2 hours of music on this playlist! Phyllis did not accept every suggestion. While her taste in music is varied not everything fit her vibe. She did take some suggestions keeping the band but choosing a different song. She asks that everyone please understand and not be disappointed. She loved all the suggestions. Thank you to all who participated.

The hospice nurse just left. A very nice lady who got to see first hand a lot of what we are dealing with. They are going to try to get a different mattress for the hospital bed. Going with a gel mattress instead of a pressure mattress because grandma complains if there are bumps. They offer nurse aids to come out up to 3 days a few for up to 4 hours a time to help with care or sit with her if we need to leave. At first she balked at it but the nurse talked her into at least one visit to try it out. I pray she allows them to visit at least once a week. I do not need to leave the house, just let me get outside by myself for just a hour to breathe. The next visit will be Thursday sometime in the morning.

YES! Oh wonderful those gel mattress are great, sure hope you get it soon.

Gosh I am hoping your Gran lets them stay, maybe a primer for them on chicken talk or quilting

I don't have Spotify but even the preview run, 30 seconds a song, is enjoyable! Thanks, DJ!

I went and downloaded it onto my phone, not good at home as I don’t have very good internet (yet!), but here at work it’s great

Rocking to ZZ Top and Blondie

Spotify is free with ads. I have a modded version (Android only) that allows me to listen without ads. But I never really use it since I prefer owning my media.

She is not above a beer but she prefers espresso martinis. Too many calories in beer.

Espresso martini? Hmmm must check that one out!

Oh I did not know that! I'll get some oyster shell this week then!

Reminds me, I need to buy a bag also. Mine is about empty. It does last a long time.
