Need Blood Day off and i sit here donating blood. Everyone should do it. It only takes 20mins but could save someones #life.. Go on, be a star. ; )
Pooh Random thought of the day... Walking along the pavement i notice someone couldn't be bothered to pick up their dog pooh.. It got me thinking... What ever happened to the white dog pooh you saw when you were a kid?
Crazy Random thought of the night.. Sensible people hold back having lots of children, as they know they cant afford to raise them, they leave it later and later to start a family... Stupid people are those who cant afford to, yet still have many,as they will let others pick up the bill.. Does that mean the country will eventually be run by stupid people? I went to house where for the eighth time this week one member of the family wants to report the other for assault ..my mind started thinking... Mother is an alcoholic, 3 grown up sons all are in and out of prison for various things, grown up daughter is much the same.. None have ever worked, all have a house provided for by welfare.. All are given money each week which is duly spent on drugs.. They all have the big flat screen tv, every games console, the designer gear.. Am i the only one to think something is wrong with this picture?? Too much thinking can be bad for you..
Tip Of The Day Top tip of the day... When filling up your car with petrol, make sure you lock the car when going into pay. I was standing in line waiting to pay and some little toe rag casually walked up to my car and tried the door handle... Needless to say, he was just a little shocked when i approached from behind and said 'works better with this.' holding up my key.. Mr Toe Rag turned on his heels and ran.. Guessing to crawl back under the rock he came from.
Hardest Part Of Today Hardest part of today.. Telling a woman her daughter has died. Certainly put's #life into perspective. People often wonder what goes through your mind when you have to give the news to someone.. Well i can say its never easy. On the way to the address i cant but help think of that person or those that are left behind. I pull up outside and as i get out i start the long walk up the drive. Placing my cap under my arm i knock on the door... The long wait is filled with the thought i know I'm about to change someone's #life forever. The door opens.. How do you tell someone a loved one is gone? Often made harder when only momentarily they had been there.. I usually ask if we can sit down. At this point some can tell.. Its like a sixth sense kicks in. In the eyes i can see fear and hope. I ask them if they know X. It is at this point that time appears to stand still. Like standing on a diving board waiting to jump.. I don't want to say it but i have to.. I need to.. And then i drop the bomb. I'm sorry to inform you but X passed away earlier today' The silence is hard.. You look into their face and wait for it to hit home.. Sometimes its a flood of emotion or nothing but shock. Other times denial. I sit with them for as long as they need me to, at the moment i feel awful and wish i could take it back but i can't. I then leave, get back into my car and drive away. I feel emotionally drained. Then a call comes in and its a report of two drunks fighting.
