Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

[LittleLakePhil]

My shower head likes to drip, and sometimes I just can't get it to quit. Plumbers charge outrageous prices, so I keep a gallon jug in the tub, with a funnel in the top to make sure the drip winds up inside. When the jug's full, it goes out to the chickens.

How you feeling?

they're predicting four more days of rain in a row. This is going to be my backyard pretty soon!

I'm sick of wind and rain..... Gloomy skies.

 

[LittleLakePhil]

grandma just got done torturing me.... Its dimentia I know... but this is the worst its ever been.....

I cant cry either.

deb

Sorry....

I am pretty stoic like the big horses... as an empath I had to learn early on to let waves of emotion pass. Poke me prod me and I just move aside... but stab me in the heart I cannot get away.

She told me to kill her and clear out the house. She doesnt know me she thinks I am someone that is always here. She then said that she loved me like family... I told her I was family I was her grandaughter... She gave me the "stare" of disbelief ... Then she asked me what my name was... I said Debbie. ... she asked me if I had a brother. No Grandma Dean is my son.

How can i help you she said. I tried to explain that I was helping myself with the surgery coming up... and why it was necessary.... her answer was well if i cant help you just kill me. sob.... I cant cry.... I couldnt cry for my dad.... I know her time is coming but cant explain it to my son....

our cousin Kevin calls her about every other day. She dleights in their conversations and I am so happy he can call from Alabama. She doesnt know he is probably dieing. Special forces operations had him exposed to lots of top secret stuff. He has Fibromyalgia... And diabetis... They had to remove his toe.... He has a huge dart spot on his lungs and they are testing him for cancer. But hes Onery and cheerful and teases her un mercifly... Hes cheered me up on occasion.

Today he called and I got her on making sure she held the reciever to her good ear.... and I left the room. Apparently the conversation was cut off for what ever reason and this is what started the Tirade.

So.... I will endure even though the pain is nearly unbearable... No one will know in the family.... With the exception of This Pond family I have....

and I have a Godd urnd Mouse playing in the kitchen.... I have to go before he hits the mouse trap...

so in the end I have unconditional love for grandma... I have to be strong to make the right decisions for her in the next few weeks.

I didn't mean to make light of your situation perchie.... But I thought the whisky and bullet comment was you using comedy to ease the situation.... Im sorry..... Friend.

Rain rain rain.... Pretty much sick of it.
But today I plant to fix a kitchen cabinet and paint the ceiling.
Hope everyone is doing good today.
At least I have baseball...... Looks sunny in Detroit

Alright atm. Colonoscopy tomorrow morning, but they're telling me I need to go the chemo route, as well. Not liking that at all.
