I may Start, Quad Driver, Both Grannies poppped 100, one lived to 103, the other made it to 104. She was born in Chattanooga in 1898, lived to 202 here in Bugtussle. But trust me-I don't think most of us would really wanna live that long. given the choice. Mamaw Izzy was just "There" the last several years, had little/no quality of life.

'scuse me, 104. Oh, & Miss Izzy-Isabelle, she was the oldest child in her family, had 3 stripes up, & 3 more down, & if you knew what was Good for you, you never gave her ANY static.I made that Misteak a couple times. NOT one of my better moments..You guys who grew up w/o full blooded Southern grannies just really don't have a clue... They'd spit in theDevil hisself's eye, & then laugh at him. I know-Pretty sure I saw Izzy do it once...at least...

Danke, Edwin ! Lemme Aks youse guys something-I've always got straight answers from this bunch. Last week was my 1st birthday w/no Lauriann, & it was tough.. My Mom's bestest bud-Who's 92, called me, & we were getting along OK, Carolyn can be kinda hateful at times, however. She was then. I started sobbing about not having LA, & Carolyn launched into me about how I needed to GROW up. & BE A Man. I mean she REALLY lambasted me, all outta proportion, I thought than what was warranted. I didn't say nothin back, You DON'T "Climb Astride" a 92 year old woman-at least I don't. But it REALLYv hurt. LA left me 1st March& it still hurts awful bad. I dunno if I'll ever wanna have much/anything to do w/her. Maybe she's right-Maybe I am just being a whiny Bitch who needs to grow a set, Somehow, though. I just kinda feel a bit different.. What sayest thou, youse byrds who have never failed me yet ? ****, when LA died, it was sudden & quick-I didn't even really get to tell her "Bye"..THAT was maybe the best thing-I don't think she suffered at all, or maybe just for a second. But I get to duffer from now on....
Everybody grieves in their own way, in their own time. I think she was being too harsh, it's only been a few months. Take the time you need, but don't forget how to live.

Oh, I forgot how to "Live" a Long time ago.. All this hi-falutin Moderne day hi-teck BULLSHIT y'know... Just spent 10 minutes-WASTED-trying to find a listing in the fone diercctory for "Hiram Heck" That completely baffles the no-attendant hi-teck hi-falutin rootin tootin fone directory... Its a Germanic name, there are a goodly number of 'em here, really nice people. BUT their name DOESN'T Exist to modern American Simpleton type English.. Bethany's husband's last name flips Simpleton type Murrican Englishy speakers, too, as does mine-Corey's surname is Krajewski, & mine is Geiger.. I think I gave up trying to correct peddlers, doctors, lawyers & Injun chiefs when I was in the 3rd grade...
