Suzy will let me know when something needs my attention and a bit earlier this evening she did so. Suzy led me to our front door where she had pooed on the entryway tile. Not only that she managed to smear it for quite a distance as well. This was particularly odorous as well. Had a nice hang time for gagging quality.
It is not Suzy's normal act to do this particular function where she did. But she will only use her paper (kept in the bathroom) once and this naughty act in the foyer meant it was probably used. I wiped up with napkins all I could carry and headed down the dark hall to the bathroom.
I stepped into the bath and promptly slid about 4 feet on 1 bare foot. It was warm and it was wet. Suzy proved she could use her paper twice, but that the paper would not hold two wet spots.
I reached over and dropped my handful of poo into the toilet and grabbed some toilet paper to wipe up as much pee as I could. I dropped that paper in the toilet as well and flushed. Nothing happened. Still standing on damp ground and near exhaustion already, I flush again and the water quickly reaches the rim. I'm plunging for all I am worth and I was able to avert the near disaster.
I wipe the bathroom floor as best as I can with my favorite wipes.
With sweat dripping off of me and a bit out of breath, I limp back toward the living room. There I am nearly knocked over by the stench. I had forgotten I still had residue to deal with out here! As I once again put my favorite wipes to use, I am secretly praying that the stench has not polluted the hallway. I use an aerosol spray to knock down the rest of the odor. I pull out a mop and properly do both floors.
Now I am absolutely wasted, late on meds and I need a shower.
Now to the obvious. I haven't posted in almost a year.
There are some who try to twist my words, blind the truths, and use lies and fairy tales to expand on every word and all this is done to hurt the ones I love. I have learned that every word I write - anywhere - is being scrutinized.
I have not updated because of these morons, but because of the demon depression. I now update, because of the morons. They will not touch my freedom of speech.
In this past year......
I have fought with our insurance company to keep my meds up. I did have to switch to receiving all my meds by mail. Because of their clerical errors I now know how bad withdrawal is, repeatedly. The doctors fear this is too much stress for my heart and I am at high risk for a stroke.
I am still in appeal to receive SSD.
Sandra and Lilly moved here in May.
My sweet Lilly started preschool. I watch her while Sandra goes to school. Lilly and I would enjoy wonderful 'walks' to school in the warm fall sunshine. I in my wheelchair, her in my lap. Later I would come just a bit early to pick her up. I could watch Lilly play at recess and return hand in hand with her new best friend. They became best friends because their shoes matched.
That was before the move.
Rand at first and finally I, made the decision to move to a complex where I could swim year round. We also have a hot tub and sauna among other amenities. Our new apartment has one bedroom and one bath and a den - which looks a lot like a toy aisle at Target! Lilly can now watch movies in her playroom. We did put her toddler bed in our room for overnights. We have much more floor room here. Every room is an improvement and we have a deck bigger than both patios combined. I have also hired some one to do the major cleaning - dusting, bath, floors, etc.... I can no longer keep up and Rand does not have time.
One week before the move, Rob and Amanda got married. It was the most perfect wedding I have ever seen. Lilly was an adorable flower girl, who carefully placed each petal in its place. When almost to the front row, the crows gasped as it appeared she had began eating the rose petals. Actually, I had placed candy and nuts in the bottom of her basket as a bribe to get her down the aisle. I had told her as soon as she had all the flowers out she could eat!
Rob and Amanda were married by Rob's Uncle Rod. We were so blessed to have their family there! Rob even had a surprise speaker - Our 16th president Abraham Lincoln was there!
I danced all I could, fortified by my doctors for this event. That was the end of any walking for a few days - and well worth it.

Sandra spent some serious time in the hospital. Tests didn't prove it, but I am sure she had H1N1. She suddenly collapsed at home. Lilly got the phone to her mom and Sandra was able to call us.
Christmas was lonely this year. We had a quick Christmas Eve with Sandra, Lilly and Willie, rushing through it to beat the winter storm headed our way. Rob and Amanda were in Minnesota and trapped there as well. The rest of the time Rand and I were here enjoying time together. Stopped by weather and the effects of the storm front on me. We napped on New Years Eve through most of the evening.
I must brag on my wonderful husband. For Christmas he got me a Kindle! This has been a wish of mine since people even thought to invent them! As soon as I saw the word I burst into tears! From now on all future gifts need to be Amazon gift cards so I may buy more books! Classic authors such as Jules Vernon, Jane Austen, and my personal favorite, Bram Stoker, are free. I am searching for a Bible that I like with easy verse searches. I hope to complete a few favorite author collections like Kathleen Woodiwiss and Robert James Waller. The Kindle will hold 15,000 books! and I was able to begin use without instructions. The battery charges in a few hours and lasts a week.
BTW - for publications purposes, legal definitions, and clarifications: My Rand, My kids, My Suzy and My Camper and MY LILLY! A term of endearment. My Lilly as in My One and Only Grandchild! My sweet girl, My best buddy, and the light of MY life. I am as important to her as she is to me. I am, as Lilly states, her ''My Grandma''.
And if you truly loved her, why would you try so hard to find fault in our lives and then, All you can find wrong is a two letter pronoun??
You can't even keep her safe in your world.
Once again:
Please, just walk away and let Lilly be free from the HORROR that is you and your life!
