It’s my lovely daddy’s anniversary tomorrow night. This day 6 years ago he was moved to hospice. I remember them wheeling him from medical ward on second floor through the hospital to the hospice. I couldn’t bear to watch so I went down the stairs and met them at the lift. My big tough hardy brother was walking towards me, behind my dad looking like a lost little boy, tears streaming down his face. My dad was fuucked. He didn’t know where he was or where he was going. He looked so unwell a woman and her daughter walking past him turned around to stare back.

Anyway. I was on the way home tonight and had my earphones in and this song id never heard before came on. Memories by maroon 5. I burst into tears, and it would take a lot to make me cry now to be honest with you.

There's a time that I remember, when I did not know no pain
When I believed in forever, and everything would stay the same
Now my heart feel like December when somebody say your name
'Cause I can't reach out to call you, but I know I will one day, yeah



Anyways I’m in bed drinking baileys straight from the bottle. I’m hardcore but classy ya

Shoes, that broke my heart, you've been through a lot.

Take it handy on the booze, it will make everything worse tomorrow.

I have day booked off work and luckiest man has a rubber arm so we’ll go drinking tomorrow. Day drinking. You know what they say it’s not all day drinking if you don’t start in the morning. It breaks my heart too because in all honesty he was my best friend in the whole world. I lost both parents but honestly would lose her ten times over than him. BUT, I had a best friend for 25 years and honestly wouldn’t swap that for the whole world. Some people have their dads for the longest time but never ever have the same bond and honestly that probably makes me quite lucky if I could get over feeling sorry for myself long enough to realize it ltll be okay, everything is always okay.

Alecto

I hope you're feeling a bit better Eleysian, you take it easy now, you've been through it lately.



Ah Shoes your post made me so sad for you, I'm thinking of you missus and I hope you're ok. Big hugs for you. I hope tomorrow won't be too tough.



I am doing nothing of importance in the grand scheme of things.

Sweet dreams all 😴💤 x

Ah shoes! So sad 😔

Pretzill

Shoes I understand - there's a song that makes me cry that reminds me of my mam & dad - I was lucky to have know both into my 40's but I'd still give anything to talk to them again. Loss is tough. But memories are precious.

I'm in the Xmas spirit tonight with a port & brandy nightcap.

Fathom

Computer Lab

I'm having a brandy!
No work 2moro & feel like sitting alone thinking for a while. Nothing better than a brandy & thinking

Bobblehats

Pull the other one you’re having a shandy

Might join you. Can’t sleep..

ILoveYourVibes

In a freezing study half heartedly doing course work ....actually only pretending to do course work ..like i have it open in a tab....but really browsing online on friends facebooks


Have you noticed people are taking way less selfies in general ? And way less photos?

qo2cj1dsne8y4k

https://ibb.co/VTB8B9R
Well ILYV, I’ve nearly 20k photos most of which are cows dogs and selfies, which is prob a combination of both of the first two
But I look at it as a public service sharing the human version of the Sistine chapel with the world ya kno?


I’m up showered and ready to party

honeybear

Thinking of you and your Dad today Shoes.

Leaving Leabaland after a topsy-turvy sleep.
Heading out for dog walkies.
Have to catch the local Romeo (wild cat) for neutering (believe me, the local lady cats will be thanking me - he’s a little divil!)
Have a lovely Tuesday all! (except Romeo, that is!)

Morning all,gorgeous morning but seemingly the roads are lethal, not looking forward to driving to work ,Secret Santa day and a little party so at least that will shorten the day,just want to be on my holidays now and have a lie in..have a good one.

Shoes enjoy the day and behave .😛

CrowdedHouse

....I wish you a hopeful Christmas, I wish you a brave new year, All anguish, pain and sadness Leave your heart and let your road be clear....




Morning all,

Seems to have been rain recently, 2.3C

Kitchen with the usual porridge and coffee for central heating

Wrap up folks

After 10 nights in various Hilton Hotels, its so nice to be home eating the wife’s cooking.

Of course the day started with a Nespresso on the balcony chatting to the mutt, its 28 degrees C.

Trigger Happy

At work and getting the tummy lined for a night out later. Christmas cheer knows no limits in this neck of the woods.

Ugh, feel terrible but have way too much to do today..... Would love to have a day on the couch..... Won't be happening today!

Kitchen side with my paw in a honey jar trying to get at the last of the honey, you'd swear I was a honey bear or something 😸😀

honeybear

Hope you enjoyed your honey Seph - it will keep you sweet! You'll be delighted to know that Romeo got a temporary reprive (couldn't catch him this morning - suspected Juliet had tampered with the trap!). My sister will neuter him and I have a lovely family home for him with a friend from the Wee County - he will be better looked after than myself! He just doesn't know it yet (think of all the new ladies he will meet up there and their cute accents!)

Trigger Happy

I have a wild thirst on me now but only a few hours before quenching/drowning that thirst.

But it’s been a good day so far. Got a lot done. I dished out my daily compliment. I did my good deed for the day. I even washed my teeth.

Fireside.
Back from travels in the chilly midwest. Few days work to kick through, then a soft couple of weeks on the roll into January

Following the the adventures of Romeo with interest. Maybe he got a tip off and has left the jurisdiction

ytpe2r5bxkn0c1

Finished the final final Christmas gift shopping and had an enjoyable day in town doing it.

Fire just lit and the house is toasty warm from the oil - god bless heating timers.

Beasty

Day case ward at the Bon Secours...


....and if anyone thinks they can run riot while I'm in a hospital bed. Think again. I'm much more trigger-happy under the influence of drugs

Gremlinertia

Had to drag myself from the pit to see psychologist, pint or two then back to the winter of my discontent

Obviously I'm more worried about Beasty and the banhammer now that he is bed and boards bound...

My new reality. Sitting in the car getting my dose of alone time.

Autosport

Good evening all busy Auto these days but having date night with my favourite man tonight

This day next week I'll be one very excited Auto


Thinking of you Shoes xxxx

Leg End Reject

It's starting to feel like Christmas now so I think I should have a few drinks every night. For practice like.

Mam of 4

Have one for me Leggy please !

Just back in from nearest neighbours house(my brothers house!) , everywhere frozen , and a heavy fog descending , very mystical ..

Sephiroth_dude

Room side, gonna go scavenge for food, am starved of the hunger!


Was down the park earlier, beautiful crisp day down there, so lucky to have a place like it at my back door.

Lying on my bed in my room in the most beautiful hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Had a wonderful bath earlier and the room has a working gas fire. Going for dinner shortly with my sister but would be perfectly content to stay put!

The force is strong in this one.

I'm trying so hard to clear the work from the tech desk and all I'm getting is deadline grief, when Christmas isn't any kind of deadline for what I'm doing. Nearly finished and then up to Dublin in the morning.:rolleyes:

But today's more important drama was poor little G. It was deadly frosty this morning. I drove her to school yesterday, but this morning she said Daddy its okay, I'll walk. I know your busy with work. Poor little thing slipped and fractured her wrist on the way and walked back home. A&E with Mammy all day as I couldn't get away from the pricks beyond the tech desk.:mad:

I feel terrible! She's home now, fed and being pampered.

Gremlinertia

Poor baby G all the pampering, pain will be forgotten soon

qo2cj1dsne8y4k

Luckiest man kept me relatively sober enough to bring me for a foooncy dinner.
Was more excited about the John Deere and claas tractor on Stephens green than I was about the melting chocolate ball

Mam of 4

Aw Grandeeod , poor little G , you all had a very stressful day , she's a tough little cookie though !
Hope it's not too painful on her .

Two of the grandladies were here today , they're hilarious tbh ! Eldests Christmas Show on Thursday , lot's of fun
