This has been a very bad year plus for me. I have been suffering from bad business, bouts of depression, and a lot of things. Today was another day when it was a struggle to get to work, but I did. I did not get as much work done as I could have or should have.
I was awakened this morning by what sounded like helicopters, but if you knew where I live you would discount that immediately. But it was helicopter, there was a murder suicide in my apartment complex about 100 yards from where I live. Until the were sure, they had helicopters, state police, local police and a lot of lookers.
I knew the man, he was 88 and was not in the best of health. His wife was around the same age and had health issues including losing her memory, a bad back and just last week broke her arm. I guess it was too much, he killed her and then himself. I think he called his daughter in between as she found the bodies.
I had to get away from here. I had to go somewhere around people, and my girlfriend met me for a Coke on her way home from work. If I were still a drinking man, I would have had one today, instead an ice tea works just fine.
They interviewed the neighbor who I know well and he said he heard nothing as he had the TV on watching the news.
With all the bad things that go on in this world it was a shame to lose two lovely people.
