80 degrees and sunny//ds keeps throwing me off, are they doing maintenance?

beautiful day today, so got nothing done.  hung out with w for a short time.  he says 300+ people are in the hospital with the flu, a nurse he knows told him.  didn't realize there was something bad like that going on.
he says lowgrade aspirin and preferably bayer, is the one that works for all this.  he also says to keep hard candies handy because the sugar can bring you out of the block thing.  its from blood not circulating properly in the brain.  amazing how many people know about this.  he's on something from v.a. like 350 mg or something.  seems everyone is on aspirin.  i'm feeling soso and kind of scared from it.  makes everything else seem dumb when something big like this happens and i keep feeling like i could go into seizure.  wth?  pretty sure its all blood pressure because i feel better at home where there is no stress and better when i take a blood pressure pill.  
shaved w's neck for him and took a look at his new tile.  his bathroom is almost done.  saw c and told him about the real-time reporting salaries and told him to forward the info to his daughter, who is now working in walmart.  he says that tennessee (like texas) also has work.  he says she couldn't do court reporting because she can't spell - she'd never get through the course and its another three years in college or tech school to be certified in it.  amazing how much trouble hooked on phonics made.  those kids write in phonics.  wth?  why didn't the schools do something to make sure they knew how to spell properly as well. 
did a small amount for the animals and left for up north.  NO ONE is here.  grrrr.  most of the time i enjoy the quiet, but with this head block thing, i feel nervous.  wow.  i hope i'm over-reacting.  i need to get a device to read my blood pressure properly.  the wrist-one that i bought doesn't work properly. 
talked to my grandfather which is a rarity.  he is mostly retired from the baptist church, but he is still around all of that.  he thinks we still have property in houston from my other grandfather.  i have no idea, i know my father screwed with it many years ago because he didn't want my grandfather moving and everyone was saying to my dad, how long do you plan on being a child for?  it was outrageous then, in the 70's.  now that i'm old myself, it seems that much MORE outrageous.  he felt my grandfather was "needed" more with him and my grandfather advised him to get a vasectomy and stop having kids since he doesn't act like a father and even with financial support its either excessive money or none there at all.  i think my father viewed kids as competition, he really never got it together.  pretty sure my father has narcisstic personality disorder and who knows what else.   my father either always had tons of money or none, the whole time we were growing up.  pretty weird.  he always maintained the real estate though, always the same houses pretty much; and we had the extras like travel, private summer camp and private school, but every year and it was his ex-wife cutting the checks for it.  finance wasn't his thing, which is amazing since his father was a professional financial adviser.  grrrr. 
my grandfather on my mother's side, never liked my father so its easy to converse about it with him and join in.  nice to be on the same side, though there are still PLENTY of things that are out of whack with him as well.  if my mother and even her sister were around, they have lists.  lol.  
talked to k, it took me a couple of days to call him back and he's angry about this.  are you kidding me?  i called him wednesday because i left something there and he didn't get back to me until thursday.  i do payroll on thursday.  i don't call ANYONE on thursday.
