i haven't posted in years

well it seems that way. so much has been happening i feel that i can't keep up. my daughter had her third aneurism removed. three. who gets three aneurisms? lots of people i suppose. my sister has one and my mother died of one. the first one was major and the second two were through the wrist. an overnight stay in hospital and a quick recovery. medical science is amazing. something to be very grateful for. i have a heart issue. thickening of the heart muscle and an irregular heartbeat. caused by stress (i have that in spades) and high blood pressure. something i didn't think i had. the doctor always says it's fine. i never take note of what it is and don't write it down. i am on medication and thankfully it's not serious. little grandson is autistic and although he's very clever with most things he doesn't cope with a lot of things either. noise, the masks we all have to wear of late and just a heap of things. his motor skills need improving. he knows more about planets than most adults. his latest obsession, and he has lots, is the titanic. he can list dozens of facts about it. it's amazing really. he's only 7. some days he's loving school and the next he refuses to go. thankfully the teachers are great with him. he's not the only autistic kid in the class. amazing
