Senile May Become My Prefered Way Of Life

   Posted by: jude   in Senior Health

Sometimes I think I would just like to forget everything. The last couple days we’ve been struggling here with Bill’s Diverticulitis, we went to the Dr. Monday finally and he’s been on antibiotics which are pretty strong. I can’t understand why his Dr. wants him back Wednesday, today because it’s only a couple days, doesn’t make sense to me, but what the heck do I know? I guess money plays a big part for everyone, 30 bucks a pop for 30 minutes or less can really add up. I recently noticed that sick people whine a lot.

The man can hardly stand, but he feels like he’s wasting his life and time by taking it easy. I really hope he retires soon so he can enjoy part of his life, but I don’t think he will. I have been struggling myself with making sense of everything going on in my life. My Shadow is finally flip flopping all over the place and is now trying to walk with a belly sling. I have had him outside 3 days in a row and he’s so proud of himself and so am I. So for those of you that said I should have put him down, —– —, he’s doing better and for those that said I would know when the time was right, Thank-you.

I’m struggling with keeping this blog going because nothing makes sense so I’m trying to spend all my credits from a program I’m involved with and then I’ll decide what I’m doing. I spend way too much time online and I know there are so many other things I should be doing. Just like in my real world people come and go and the same happens online I may see the same blog for months at a time, but then they disappear and I don’t even miss them until I see their blog again, just saying. Actually not sure what I’m saying.

I need to get my priorities and my mind straight , maybe I’ll just enjoy the senility and forget everything.

Weeping Blue Atlas Gettysburg Square

   Posted by: jude   in Mature Not Senile Misc

Bill and I often get lost and a few weeks back was no exception when we were riding through the Gettysburg countryside on the trike and entered the square from a different angle we turned down the wrong road and I was very happy we did because I spotted the monster Weeping Blue Atlas below and almost jumped off the trike, but I didn’t have my camera so last weekend we rode back up so I could get a photo for my Blue Atlas album. I love looking at all the unique shapes and I get so excited about all the ones I spot. Since I had my camera in hand while we were riding through the square I snapped a few other photos.

Vietnam Veteran Memorial/York Fair

   Posted by: jude   in Home and Family

Last year I bought a brick for Bill for Christmas, not just any old brick this one is for the Vietnam Veteran Memorial and it will be located right inside the York Fairground gate on a small corner spot. We stopped over on Monday to see how far along they were because the dedication is October the 3rd. They have all the material there except the actual sculptured monument which will have all the names of the fallen from our surrounding area engraved on it. They did have the base for the monument, but that was it.

I saw the banded bricks with the names and rank and depending on how you served a certain color star engraved on the bricks. This has been a long time coming to honor these veterans which I wont get on my soap box about, but Bill was very touched that I had thought to do this for him. At any rate the Fair starts today and I was surprised more vendors weren’t here and setting up. There were only a few trucks there and not one ride was being assembled.

Our Fair lasts for 10 days, but there has been much grumbling the last few years about attendance being down and no one was making any money that many said they wouldn’t be back this year. I think the price to get in this year is 6 bucks, but they do have special days and tomorrow is free for Veterans, but we probably wont go till next week. I live like 3 blocks from the grounds and it use to be I could sit on my balcony and hear all of the musical acts, but they now have it muted.

The people that park people in their yards usually make out pretty good during those 10 days.I’m sure the workers will have a mess going if they’re planning on working during the Fair, but they need to get a move on because I’m anxious to see Bill’s brick and so is he. Well, have a great weekend and I hope the header I finally chose isn’t too much of a distraction, but it kind of reminded me of my life and the old thyme Mom and Pop stores from my youth which I loved and now they can’t afford to stay in business, too bad.

I just looked at the line up and saw David Cook from American Idol will be here August the 18th and I really liked the kid and wanted him to win, but I wont be going to see him. I  might hear him for free can’t afford 35 dollars, Kelly Clarkson opened our Fair last night, but I didn’t hear her of course I was taking a nap when she was there.
