Bugger me if they didn't do a burn off and go out, only to have the bloody thing start up again and come through the fence into her place and up into a massive gum tree. I had to call the fire brigade. Maybe it wasn't dementia but a premonition! T.L.

She stayed physically strong into her late 80s, but her mind slowly deteriorated. When my aunt had not heard from this lady for a while, she went to check on her and found her living in only 2 rooms of a very spacious house. The lady had nailed the interior doors shut because, she said, "those people" had taken over her house and she had to keep them away.Jan Blawathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06697621979002856884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-54730347253294930472016-01-17T22:28:06.852+00:002016-01-17T22:28:06.852+00:00A weirdly interesting day in the village.

Some brain dead idiot with a rifle, saw her little white gloves she was wearing because it was so cold out, and shot her .. thinking she was a deer ( white tailed)..<br />Since that happened, I just take it for granted that no one knows what they are doing and I make sure I am not where a bullet can hit me or anyone near me.<br />Miles of land around my home is owned by one family. So if I hear shooting there, I at least know who it is .. but that doesn't make me feel safer.Notes From ABroadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12202279303962539035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-60261855006833256382016-01-17T19:09:55.921+00:002016-01-17T19:09:55.921+00:00Not on a Sunday.
