I am nursing her today with the flu, she had a medical question about how she felt and wondered if she should call the ER or 911.At 75 she never had a TV because her father didn't like them, but gave in 3 years ago when I gave her one.These are the people that make my life full. I am going to make these bits of love today.Out on the prairiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09548162534362532705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5818397854598010989.post-49146839150159510692010-12-22T10:09:24.802-05:002010-12-22T10:09:24.802-05:00She sounds like quite a character.

My parents lived in the same building at the time and she dropped by mid-evening to show them the gash on the back of her head. She needed stitches. My Dad asked when it happened because it didn't look like a fresh wound. It turns out it had occurred hours earlier but first she had to finish hanging curtains, then she needed to watch her soaps, then make and eat dinner, do dishes and one more evening show. Now was the time to check it out. It took 8 stitches. She may have been related to your Aunt Stell. :)Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787493532006658679noreply@blogger.com
