Purewick delivery showed up today from a Sunday order. First order of business at the home was get it operational again while cleaning mother up. Father didn’t give her pain meds prior to the procedure. We had to deal with the “my back hurts,” “something is here or here on my back stabbing me,” and the general appreciation/bitching of getting the bed and body cleaned again.
Aimee and I are exhausted from the nursing job we have to perform every night with the two of them, bless their souls.
Ya’ll enjoy the time with your parents even if it’s this “stuff” too.

Happy birthday to my surviving sibling. He’s old too *wink*
Dad’s HHR broke; not taking it back; taking it back; not taking it back; need gas; dashboard is not reliable. You name it, the Chevy HHR has reached “end-of-life” too, imho. But we are going on down the road via the great work at Auto Works(843) 957-2780 on Husted Rd. and Labonte St. in Conway, South Carolina. They have done a stellar job at finding a part and getting the vehicle operational again.
My vehicle choked and gagged today too. My battery installed in 2018 failed today. Nathan and crew were fast and furious at fixing the part on the 2012 Frontier. *cheers*
Got all clippings done this afternoon. The dogs loved the pork chop bone(s) after I had my leftover lunch from last night’s dinner.
*faceplam* Today was a real event to thank God for his guidance if we just “go with the flow” (aka “The Woodstock Way”). It drives father nuts to operate in such a fashion for day to day living. Although, he operates in such fashion expecting the flow to go the same path day to day which just doesn’t happen. At 85 you would expect him to have learned this fact of life. But, “No this so-n-so will happen with these results that we don’t want ever…”
I am so glad God put me in the computer field in 1982. I’ve not been the nicest with humans since entering the “On/Off” world of logic when people I am working with cannot grasp wtf I am building in the air with words prior to coding and/or action items. Therefore, working with a fellow that had trouble putting together bicycles on Christmas gift time many decades ago. I on the other hand loved building the “toys” we were giving my younger brothers and myself *wink*.
The post have been light the last months due to the fact that I can’t write the way I used to write in my younger days. I forget. You’ll get there too if lucky to live long enough. Lord, we are all around it. Walk into a room and ask yourself, “What did I come in here for now?” Add alcholhol or smoke and it’s much worst, “Why am I getting off this train in Lost Springs, Wyoming?” With this said, it gets late when I can write and I may be ‘pain-free’ at that point of the day.
Viva has been accepted and beginning Hospice Care by Lower Cape Fear LifeCare ™ today, Praise God. The internal issues are many. ‘naugh said.
Mother, may/may not get an initial visit this Friday. *prayers*
September isn’t a good month for me. Sorry for no post to speak of apparently.
Which only brings up a song about the joys of September, just not this 2025 September. Now don’t listen to this while driving in heavy traffic it’ll drive ya nuts to not smash the accelerator to 120.
Mind your own bloody ass business! 203 days ago, but who’s counting?
Dixie Chicken (circa 1976)
We were 12 and 9 with the 2 yr old in tow everywhere. I found this group a couple years later from my “older sister” Linda, now Lynday, who was married to David at that point. That and the fact Capital Records record promo for 10 for $1 (and then the fine print a monthly album that was twice the cost of getting one at the store two miles away). *snicker* My brother only got 57 years because the D.C. (Den of Corruption) and Demoncrat Governor of Virginia with Dr. Anthony Fauci leading the pack at $600,000+ annual tax dollars to murder as many citizens of the World as they can get away with and still get the same pay for life.
I really should add to this as the day progresses as to the recap. I’m more of a “on-the-fly” kinda fellow not a Mr. Recap. Sorry you miss most the humor in this format. Like the cloud formations tonight at sunset. One in particular looked like a dog with another sniffing it’s butt which cracked me the heck up since that is all I see all day with a female, male, and son pack at the house which our cat has decided is ok to hang/join with in the backyard.
Sleep well young princess.
The agenda for our parents as rather active today.
October 5, 2021: Moving to Harrisonburg, Virginia, United States after Fauci murdered him with mandatory injection of a poison that Fauci made money off of with more sales to the tune of millions to murder citizens. He and I pushed on into the night with the off-load of his family’s home items. Now granted a chunk of it was left in the basement staging area for “approval of placement” later from my sister-in-law (wife), Tracey.
I do not think that those folks who caused his death will ever see justice in the United States of America because Satan rules the Earth right now. In the end, justice will be served.
