The Coffee House

Some guy on the tube listens to his music passionately

She seemed to be well into her 80’s. If she wasn’ Nice, Maggie would have taken her down. She spends her winters in Cambria. She used to spent them down south in Latina Beach. Pretty much a toss-up on beauty and charm between Cambria and Laguna.
 
Dave is watching "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy ". Not really getting it yet.

I needed a bit of levity. Went this morning to the visitation for my aunt who passed away. It's good to see relatives you haven't seen in a long time but not so much for the reason everyone's there of course. Don't think it has sunk in yet really. She just went downhill since summer after her 90th birthday which I suppose is better than a long drawn out illness.

The person I barely recognized was my cousin who has Parkinson's. She lives out of state and last time she was here I didn't end up seeing her and she's changed so much. Everyone else looks a bit older but the difference with her I wasn't expecting.

Waiting now for the Schwan's food delivery service this afternoon. If I remembered what I ordered I'd know what's for dinner!

My condolences. Hard to watch your family members changing sometimes. :heartpump:
 
Mary Lou, Maggie and Gary have moved inland and we enjoyed a warm and pleasant afternoon at Wolff. Wolff and our next stop, Saucelito Canuon are in the Edna Valley which butts up to San Luis Obispo.

Man, sorry to hear that. That is one nasty disease. I have a bud I played baseball with, that was diagnosed with it 3 or 4 years ago. It has done the same thing to him. I would visit him more but his wife is not friendly at all. She is kind of mean. She really don't like me because the last time I visited he had looked like someone kicked the crap out of him in an alley and I questioned her about his appearance. I never thought for a second she did it to him and she went off on me, like I was insinuating that she did. After her melt down, I suspect she gave him the black eyes, cuts, and bruises. I never cared for her in general, she cheated on him, has a foul mouth, and I told my bud who she was banging. Seriously, the thought of her doing that never crossed my mind. He loved here big time for reasons I don't know but he was a brawler when we were growing up, he always had my back. We got into some serious fights back in the hood days, he is a short stocky guy that could bench press 350, 10X +, he always came straight in and under while rocking the thunder. He knocked guys out, all the time. Smart guys would never let him in close, like me, I just used my reach and waited for the opening and it was good night Irene. Incidentally, that is his wife's name. I minister to him via Skype and email. We are pretty close, although electronically. He actively engages in our electronic ministry and has helped a great deal with supporting this most perplexing challenge people are faced with.
 
Just finished hot dogs. Contemplating vanilla Blue Bell with chocolate sauce.
I was never a fighter. But once at my Aunt and Uncles they bought him boxing gloves.
Naturally everyone thought he and I should put them on. I managed to score and from then on we were best buddies.

So sorry about your aunt and cousin Sharon. I went to a wake last night myself. My mom's best friend's husband passed away. He had Alzheimer's and has been in a home for the past 5 years due to wandering off and needing 24/7 monitoring. His wife visited every day, bringing him dinner and sitting with him even though he hadn't recognized her in years. He was a former policeman/bomb squad detective who was a big loud funny as hell great guy who always offered a helping hand to everyone and it was terrible to see him slowly disappear. Such a terrible and cruel disease.
