I know, I know, I promised to keep up with things but life gets in the way. This past week we had a few things happen.
First off GF got a real bad cold. Last time she was this bad it turned into pneumonia. She was hacking real bad Monday. Her sister in law who has DR for a dad got some antibiotics for her. They helped a little, more or less kept things in check and kept from getting worse more than anything. I had her call her DR Tuesday morning and he in turned prescribed some better stuff. She took a couple of days off work, but the way she was feeling she was better off for it.
Add more stress in the form of her Grandmother going to the hospital with the flu. We spent Thursday and Friday night at the hospital. She is in intensive care. For being 95 she is holding her own. Got a scare Thursday when they took her off the ventilator and things went south quick. They put her back on she got better. Now they are going to keep her on until early next week and see what happens. All of our prayers are going out to her and her family. This Lady is the Real Deal. A Okie from the start and a Grandma from the word go. I heard so many wonderful stories up in the hospital from her grand kids and kids alike. I have only met her a couple of times so I just listened to the tales of Grandma Bishop. I want her to pull through this if for nothing else I can get a chance to know her.
The kids are at their Daddy's this weekend so that means we have the place to ourselves. This morning we are in the process of doing laundry and cleaning up the place a little. Probably go back to the hospital later. Which is OK by me. I am getting to know her Dad's side of the family this way. And the more I learn, the more I appreciate where she comes from and all that kind of stuff. In other words it makes me appreciate her that much more. Her Dad has always been good to me. I'd like to keep it that way too.
Well back to the chores.
One more thing what about O'Bummer...errrr....Obama's war......errr wait, he is calling it a "Kinetic Military Action". Hmm I could use a cliche about calling a spade a spade, but that could be construed as racist by some. And France was on the forefront of at that. Well if we want to surrender in style, I guess the French would be the ones to lead. But it looks like NATO is finally stepping in.
I was for Bush going into Afghanistan to hunt down Bin Laden, I even understood his reasoning at the time, although later to be proved faulty, for going into Iraq. But why Libya? If someone could clue me in, I'll listen to any reasonable argument.
Let's see Elizabeth Taylor died this week also. In her prime she was every boy's wet dream. Even as she got older I thought she was a Babe. Any way you put it though, she was class, from the 8 marriages to her acting ability to her AIDS activism. A real Classy Lady A real Movie Star who will be missed by all. RIP Liz. Maybe you and your former husbands can be nice to each other up yonder.
That's right, back to the chores.
