the blues

Whole fam damily has come down with the ills! Older daughter suffering from a kidney stone too big to pass, youngest girl suffering from chronic stomach disorder and the wife down from stress and now ill with some stomach flu and can’t seem to keep anything down. With my ongoing back problems and severe spinal problems, it just takes the cake anymore! Its times like these that make one think if it weren’t for bad luck then I wouldn’t have any luck at all!Now with everybody unable to work due to sickness and pain, its a good thing I draw a little pension from my service in the military, even so, with what little that comes in combined with the pittance that I get from social security it barely pays the mortgage and maybe covers one or two bills. I blame the democrats for my woes, its two steps forward and three steps back these days. Oh well, I’m sure I’m a bit better off than others from my generation.
