Hell is other people. Heaven too.
How much do you adjust for this person?
The one who is only available when I am damaged
a foul weather friend, unexpected,
busy with all the damaged around,
never time to play. This one hides much
and slips into denial like a familiar cloak.
I am sad. That one talks about others, ah, gossip
I hate it. This one has a blind spot I could
drive a truck through. I wonder why? I am curious.
I read that women are still expected to be responsible
for the house. They are praised or blamed if the home
appears perfect or a mess. I am clearing my main floor
to resemble this idea of what a house should look like
but reading that I wonder. Is it worth it? My decor
is packrat cat lady, though only two cats. No self respecting
burgler would come in as they would trip and fall,
over cats or stuff. Stuff on the stairs: I don’t care
and know that at 65 I will be counseled in my “free”
medicare wellness visit, that I’ve paid for through
all my working years, to make sure my house is uncluttered
reducing fall risk. Hell is other people and heaven too.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: hell.

Hell IS other people. My jury is out about Heaven… ;-) I’ve never had a Medicare Wellness visit/check, whatever it is. I actually appreciate the benign neglect of my GP. Gossip…yeah it’s malicious and it’s boring.
Really the Medicare wellness is based on the top ten causes of death and the associated screening tests, so it’s a weird list of screens, counseling and tests. But the top ten causes of death is a diverse list. It is not unreasonable.
I hate gossip too, because if they are talking about one person, they are capable of doing that to everyone.
Yesssss
