Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Cabernet in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!"

Bummed Out

I don’t have anything to write about that is of any interest to anybody. I just have a lot of things on my mind that is family and  personal that has had me down and bummed out over the past few days. With out going in to any great detail lets just say I have been disappointed and let down. Again!!! Why do people you care about and love do the things they do? And if that’s not enough I have been dealing with my mom in the nursing home. She’s not playing nice with the nurse’s.

And if that’s not enough our refrigerator is on the blink,all the food is sitting in several ice chest in the kitchen. 

So enough of my problems,I found some interesting photos I thought some of you may like to see. All were caught at the right angels.

HAS SPRING SPRUNG??

First thing, all the pictures were taken with my cell phone. Note to self put extra camera in truck.

This week has turned out to be real nice, I think spring has sprung and is here to stay,I hope after all I do live in Missouri and the weather can change in no time,Friday we got up to 71.

Friday afternoon we went for a walk in Parkville,MO it’s about 4 miles from the house and sits right on the Missouri River. It’s also home to Park College named after the founder of Parkville.

Sunday we do the spring forward thing on the clocks. I guess that’s means spring is here.

  

Kind of  hard to see in this picture the college sit’s on a hill overlooking the river.

image

This old home sits on the bottom of the hill toward the river and by the train tracts. It’s one of the oldest home’s in the county.

image

There are several of these old and very large trees that sit along the banks of the Missouri,make me wander how much history and flooding they have seen.

This picture of some of the old store fronts on a back street in town.

As always we hope everyone has a good and safe week.

Stressful Week

Monday my brother and sister and I moved mom into a nursing home because we had no one to take care of her while my brother and sister in-law worked.

Mom did not understand why she had to move into the home and thought she had done something wrong. We tried to tell her she had not done anything wrong and that we just needed someone to watch over her.

If you have never been to a Alzheimer ward it is probably the most depressing place you can go. This is a all women ward and it is like watching a bunch of children in old people bodies acting out. I told Angela that if I get like that to just put me out in the desert and let the coyote's get me.It would be better and faster then sitting in a warehouse in God’s waiting room for my time to come.  

 

Angela and mom.

With all that going on we did get to go out to eat at a Mexican restaurant,those are not all of Angela’s plates some are mine,she had more than she could handle on her plate.

That’s about it for our stressful week here.

We hope everyone has a safe and good week ..
