Crappy Week
I've had a crappy week now. First I gave blood on Thursday and the folks at Civitan blew my vein out. Oh well, they made up for it by awarding me a galloneer pin and mug.

Then on Friday I destroyed my ATM card while doing laundry (so I'm a dumbass), and had to argue with the lady at the bank to get a new temporary card. She didn't want to assign me a temporary card because the check-card number of my old (destroyed) card would then be invalid. I explained to her that I was OK with that since I never used it for anything except to get cash from an ATM machine anyway, at which point she finally agreed to assign me a new card.

Myopia.

Saturday I was bitten by a fire ant, and had a minor allergic reaction. My hand swelled up to the size of a grapefruit and I couldn't close my fist. A few doses of Benadryl did me wonders.

Those were the good things that happened in the past five days. Sunday evening Sandy's grandmother passed away. She would've turned 98 on April 3rd.

Sandy's a wreck. Thankfully we had the opportunity to see her on Sunday afternoon, I think she'd be in worse shape if we hadn't.

Tonight we've got a viewing, and tomorrow morning we have services in Lake City. Thursday we're burying her in Miami.
