Every family on the rez dreams of their child making it big in a Basketball, so the college tuition could be paid for in scholarships.
We find vehicles in every condition, and usually this is the reason why it's not being paid for.
A lot of times, they are hid in the back yard.. ahm..like this one..
Either way.. we bring them home, and work is done for the day.
I knew something fishy was going on when I heard one of Hubby's co-worker told hubby his sister died of cancer. His sister was my adopted sister, also my cousin. I don't like him, so I never paid any heed to his ~what have you~. I did tell Hubby about how back when we were young, we had adopted cousin. Anyway, she died. I was heartbroken, of course, and usual like the rest of ol relatives and friends... you hear of their drinking problems so I never tried to locate them. All this time, I saw her brother I never thought to ask about her... I don't even care to talk to him. This just goes to show you.. how things can unlock certain doors if you put your hatred aside. Well, for me it is. I'm juST SoO NOT Happy with iT!.. I cried inside, and prayed for her...
I have not seen her since mid- 80's.. Since then I had lost contact with her. I have always tried to help her when we were young. That's where I learned to run-away, when we were young. I took a dare in shoplifting and running away to help her get home from Green River, Utah to Red Valley, Arizona. We slept in the desert at night by the rail road tracks. Hmm, we were only in third grade. Wow. Eventually we were caught on the third day, it wasn't a pretty site. She took off again that day, I stayed. I never saw her again until we were in our teens... just one night.. and I never saw her again. I just heard stories.. and felt bad for her. Now she is, too, gone.
Hubby took me with him, and tried to keep me in good spirits all day yesterday. I guess, it worked. My mind was more on other things.. and getting the job accomplished. And him. I was worried about him.
Hubby was a Green Beret, and a Ranger when he was in the Army.. He went to War like everyone else.. There are a lot of unpleasant experiences.. I guess only they would really know.. I flew off the bed in my sleep.. I caught the blanket to get a hold of something on the first experience.. The second, was the other night.. I have learned to sense these things... The mili-sec he flinched, I was on my knees and gather as fast as I can for recovery.. He, on the other hand, was in a different state.. Sometime it scares me, but I have learned to get him under control. Lately, I am more of in a protective mode.. not just for myself, but for hubby.
Grandson's mom came to get him for day's visit, I am feeling sad about that too, now. We hadn't seen her in a couple of months. Although, she works only 30 minutes away from us. I accidently said 'Take care of my baby'. Well, I do take care of him everyday, he is my baby if you really think about it.
