They put my Grandpa is Hospice Care yesterday. He won't eat, drink, or take his meds. My Dad says, "Grandpa is tired and giving up on life". He's 98 years old.

I must say it is nice to be 41 years old and still have a Grandpa.

Sorry to hear that Ben. That is beyond "dump thread worthy". Sounds like your Grandpa deserves his own page.

And to think I was going to bitch about waiting on my drink at a Mexican restaurant right now. I knew I shouldn't have eaten the salsa until my drink showed up. I am an idiot.

Ben, my great-grandma is 98...so her oldest grandchild is 49....long lives. She's talked about dying and giving up but then she finds a reason to live a little longer...once it was to spite a doctor who said she couldn't have a hip replacement (she had 2 done, the doctor died....)...those old souls are amazing and a blessing.

Enjoyed talking with JBrown tonight on the phone. Good conversation and good info to help me with turkey killing! Then I got home. . . so much for walking in the door and relaxing. Ended up re-wiring a trailer until about 11pm. The joys of self-employment are not always as nice as they appear from the outside. Sure, I could have let my guys do it in the morning, but then I would have 2 guys on the payroll re-wiring a trailer instead of out performing billable work. Oh well. It is done now. Such is life.

I wanted to dump, but the two fellers above reminded me my dumps pale in comparison. Suppose I'll shake off the dump and go on about my day...

Don't you hate it when you fall asleep watching the 10pm news then wake up at 1am thinking it is time to go to work? Just saying. Well. . . suppose I might as well get to work. haha

I woke up at 3 am once packed my suitcase. Drove 45 min to the airport, checked in. Couldn't find my gate asked an attendant about 5:30 what gate my flight was at. She told me the flight was at 6pm. Not AM. FUUUUUUCCKKKKK.

Then I went back home and almost got shot by the wife at the time. I was walking down the hall and something just told me to stop. I did and called out "Hun its me" "ok" she said. I walked in the bedroom and she was on my side of the bed putting the .45 back in the nightstand. Far as she knew I was on a plane.

I ate a bowl of soup beans, two bowls of chili, baked beans and raw ramps on Saturday. Now that made a dump worthy of this thread!!!

Ben - you're a lucky man to have had a Grandfather for so many years. Try to enjoy what time there is left. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think of my own Grandpa. Most often it's driving down the road, thinking of something outdoor related, and then wanting to call and tell him. Miss him all the time.

Dale & Jim - I'm continuing to pray for you both.



My dump... Spent Easter throwing up, pretty much emptied everything out from the bottom of my toes on up... made it through church service but was wondering at what point in time was I gonna have to make a dash to the men's room. I kept getting hot and dizzy, and pictured myself dashing down the center aisle & out the back doors. Got home, laid down, then 30 minutes later it started. My daughter had the same thing on Friday. Today is much better, but still unsure about eating.

Only thing I have for the dump thread is: It is Monday and the holiday weekend is over! Not too bad really. Hardly worth complaining about. Could always be worse. Hope you get to feeling better Curran!
