MONTE/SPOD/MONTE/SPOD

Which way do I go?  Which way do I go?  Last night, quite late, I got a call from Monte in the hospital in Port.  He suffers from awful clinical depression and when his thoughts become self destructive he ends up in the hospital with a very worried me at the other end of his phone line.  Thank God he has a great great friend across the street who keeps me in the loop about Monte.  Poor guy.  He hates this anxiety and depression, possibly made worse with the news about his dad. So we made plans for him to make it through the night and then come down here for a while.  I really need the help here anyway.  So he did.  I feel so much better having him here….for his sake.

Spod had a lovely day (as much as possible) with his son Bill.  Bill, bless his heart, came over really early and stayed all day with Spod.  His dad totally enjoyed the visit.  Emily came over here really early and cleaned and visited..just what I needed, believe me.  She and I went to see Spod and we also saw Bill.  We had a lovely visit!

Some good news…The doctor stopped by where we were sitting to let us know that Spod's biopsy results should be in tomorrow, next day the latest.  Thank goodness!!!  Finally we will get him into the cancer clinic and a plan put in action!  I can't wait and for sure, neither can Spod.  

We all went back to the hospital around three thirty and Monte played the piano for quite a while.  The oldsters love it.  And when we all finished playing this very old tiny lady in a very unbecoming hospital gown sat down at the piano and knocked off the Hungarian Rhapsody!!!  I couldn't believe it!  It was wonderful!

Tonight Austin came out on his bicycle and we ordered Chinese food and had a fantastic warm evening.  They are coming out again Friday night and they will spend the night.  April and Myles will be over as well.

Achh fer geez!!!  The rabbit is going crazy outside.  I forgot we put her out there, he is right under my window.  I shall have to go get him.  The deer live in our front yard and he doesn't like deer.  We have three quite tall, about four foot high, solar lights.  They are beautiful balls on metal posts that stick in the ground.  And they are forever tipped over on the ground.  I could not figure out why.

  Well…last night I went out to get something from the garage.  I noticed a deer over by the dogwood and I couldn't believe what I saw!!  The stupid deer was kicking his back leg and knocking the lights over to the ground!  Why???  What the hell do they have against those lights?  I don't get it.  I sicked Parker on the buck but Parker just looked, turned around and went back in the house.  So I leapt like a gazelle over the flower garden, charged over the grass,  screeching like a banshee and the deer leisurely bounced off.  Stupid deer.

Well now its bedtime.  I need to sleep, which I shall do tonight because my three boys are in safe places.  One in the hospital getting great care.  Another down the hall in bed and close enough for me to check.  And the smelly hairy one is under my chair.  'sigh'   He truly smells awful.  Oh well as long as they are all okay for now.  Night Night.
