Default Dang I'm tired

I haven't gone this hard since I was single and running the bars!( I was a lot younger in those days and healthier too) Family has me on the go just about non stop and the gun club isn't Cutting me any slack either.
My Dad isn't doing well, Hospice(SP) has been brought in and Dad is now on morphine day & night.
I forget to eat some days and wonder why I feel so bad in the evenings. I was shocked at the new wrinkles in my face when I looked in the mirror this morning, (it is a shame to add wrinkles to a handsome face like mine).
My house work is falling behind and I haven't pulled the trigger on anything in days! Carla hasn't said a word and never will about the house work, other than for me not to worry about it.
But I was totally shocked when I got home last night about 11:43 to find about two thirds of my guns wet from tears had to spend 30 minutes explaining things to them before I got them to stop crying. They though that I didn't love them any more
OH while out running errands for family and club yesterday I did manage to acquire a new (to me) S&W 29-3 in great shape, now I have three new guns that haven't been shot.
Freckles & JC (our cat & dog) both attack me last night when I got home. I thought they had forgotten who I was until I saw JC open the refrigerator door open while Freckles tried to push food out and remembered that they too needed food daily.
I will try to check in a little more often and thanks for being here for me.
Ron

Kind of at a loss for words here Ron. Wish I could help. Sad news about your dad. But you have to remember to take care of yourself.

Sorry the news isn't better about your dad.


But as for you being busy ..... you know you wouldn't have it any other way. If you weren't running in ten directions at once, we would think something was wrong with you!
