    Seems our stupid city decided to redo the National Cemetery where my dad is buried. They stared work on MAY 9th. The work won't be done until september. No vehicles are allowed in the cemetery while they are working on the gates. We can, walk from the gate into the cemetery. Yeah, if you can walk that far, which I CAN'T!!!

    Even if I could, I couldn't ask the public trasportation people to wait for me while I trudged up there. So, for the first time since his death, my dad won't have a flower on his grave over Memorial Weekend. I can't help crying. I feel like I'm letting him down.

    I did post about this on their little web opinion site. I told them they could have waited until AFTER Memorial Day to start this. sheesh
    I am sorry you can't get there, maybe they can come up with a plan if enough people complain. I had a thought though if it doesn't work out for this year. Put the flower on your kitchen table sit down and tell your dad why there is a change this year and that you hope he doesn't mind, I'm sure he will understand and not mind at all, grateful to still be thought of instead.

    Barkeep, could I get a gin and tonic please?

    Just sittin' here chillin'
    There's room beside me if you are willin'
    How about a little Bob Dylan?
    Boy am I feeling sillin'

    OK, so I'm not a poet. Richard, I could you a nightcap please. I'm not fussy. Oh yes, and a rag to clean up the Merlin's drool.

    Many thanks.
    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, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
