A flu

I have a flu.

Nasty, tiring flu.

Not bad enough to stay in bed,

but nasty enough to get you sneeze and cough all the time.

Thanks for the grandchildren, I guess.

A year ago and now

Around this time of year, 

a year ago,

 I wrote about the thing,

which bothered me alot.

It still does.

Little thoughts

My grandparents got married in August 1917.

They were married 40 years, had 6 children.

I never met my grandfather,

he passed away 1958.
