The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

The last couple of weeks have been a whirlwind. Chaotic, shifty and exhausting. At the end I am happy we survived.

Now we are learning to live with Diabetes AND previously undiagnosed brain damage. Finding out was a relief but living with it and seeing someone struggle every day just to maintain sanity is heartbreaking.

More ups and downs than a roller coaster and I never see the turns or the straightaways coming. It's like being blindfolded.

It is. I wish you all the best and hope that there is some assistance that you can get now that a diagnosis is had.

One day at a time. At least now he is seeking help.

Got up early, blah blah blah.

It is Sunday, yadda yadda yadda.



Since Friday it has been nearly nonstop Grand Theft Auto V in my house.

I love when the kids have friends over.

One of the things that I just cannot stomach; pictures of my mother posing as Grandma. She has grandchildren already, ages 23-12. She just never wanted much to do with them. I wonder if it is just because it is my brother being a parent this time.

Maybe this one won't end up asking her parents at the age of 11, who the lady is that talks to her on facebook.

The kids left the news on when they left for school this morning and I heard a story about pilots of major airlines relying too heavily on auto pilot. Apparently when auto-pilot goes out unexpectedly the pilots don't know what to do, so the plane crashes.

I especially loved the use of the word lazy; automation is making them lazy. That is a direct quote. I am glad it wasn't me saying it.

I do think that pilots and copilots should be taking a heavy paycut if they aren't actually working while they are up there.

Who knew Minecraft was so addictive?

Not me.

I was dubious at first. What could be so addictive about a low-res game about breaking blocks? Turns out, quite a lot!

My son has been playing it for a while now.

He set me up a world so I could play, probably thinking I wouldn't do anything with it. Yesterday I sat and played the morning away.

I did not go into detail because in truth, I was still tired. The last three days have been blurrish.



On Thursday we left the house at 5 in the morning to make a trip to the Veterans hospital. My dear husband is needing an MRI to search for any scarring which would indicate a Traumatic Brain Injury from his time overseas back in 2006. We arrived at the check in a little after 9:30 that morning. His appointment was for 9. The trip without traffic would have taken a little over 3 hours, we gave ourselves 4. We would have made it but the directions were incomplete and we got lost. The getting lost cost us.

We had to reschedule the appointment and the next time we are making the trip the night before and camping in a van. It is a pain in the ass that could have been avoided if they would just allow him to have the MRI at our local hospital, especially because this assessment is time sensitive.

My husband was quite good about it. Understanding that the VA is doing the best it can with the resources available.

We got home around 2 in the afternoon, exhausted and hungry. We had planned to stop for lunch or a late breakfast before heading back but with the upset we just drove all the way through.

Friday was errands, including groceries and we were still exhausted. The morning was good but we fizzled out early. On a happy note I did stop at the Asian grocery and was able to obtain some items that are impossible to find at the grocery and they were priced reasonably, all things considered.

Yesterday, husband went out to spend some guy time with a good friend of ours. He never relaxes so I am happy that he did yesterday

BUT

on the way home the alternator went out and needed to be replaced. I am so glad he is a mechanic. Fixed the car and then finished the shopping. Phew.

I am so glad I have almost nothing to do today.

Yesterday was a long day.



The End

Spellcheck is such a retard.

Up early on a Saturday morning.

Two of the neighbors dogs got out and we were awakened when one of them(nicknamed Rowf)started barking at my back door. My collie barked back.

My big Tabby kitty was smooshed up against the door just waiting to be saved. Thank goodness he didn't run, it would have been his last.

Got the dogs back in their yard and now enjoying coffee and contemplating a busy day. Busy days really are the best.

It has been a productive day.

I don't have any other place to say this.

It is an extremely selfish and childish thing but it's just there. At least here no one gives a shit so I don't have to listen to people bitch.

I feel HURT!!!

My feelings are hurt by the thoughtless people who are supposed to be my family. I don't even know what that word really means. I have my husband and my children. Those three people are the ones who matter the most.

I just need to get this out and maybe once I have I won't hurt so much. Maybe then I can put it all behind me once and for all.

These people who are related to me by blood have always left me to do things for myself. They deny me my pain. Ignore me until they want something and then they call me FAMILY!

Is that really all it is? People who are borne through this life with no purpose other than to suck off each other when need calls?

I have always been outside. It is why leaving was so easy. Why do I keep them?

Today I get a phone call, a long distance reminder that I am still outside. That I do not matter to these people and all I want to do is scream shut up shut up SHUT UP!!! You fucking doddering imbecile! Yes I care but I am not allowed to. My place is to wait until I am called and pretend to be excited and happy for someone who has never given me a seconds thought?

That is not me! I don't want it.

I just want to leave those people far in the past and forget them.

I have a minor problem with social networks. I am not a social person. I am not even a stalker.

I am a Solitarian.

My preference is to keep to myself and watch the scenery. With some networks there is just so little scenery to watch.
