Hey folks, welcome to the new whine/general topic thread. Feel free to use this thread to discuss anything that is on your mind. Caregiving- related stuff, life after a loved one's death, your own emotional wellbeing. Whatever..........anything on your mind.
BoniClark, I remember she had a heart attack, then her Mom had passed. This was a few years ago.
There are other names I haven't seen in awhile: StaceyB... JeanneGibbs... NYdaughterInLaw... GardenArtist.... WindyRidge... Vstefans... GuestShop Admin.
I know I was off for awhile as the previous new and improved format was just to overwhelming for me. Then someone notified me [thank you] that the forum was back to pretty much the old format :)

I tired to find Veronica using the SEARCH. And what I got was a ton of postings not in any date order. I looked to see if I could arrange the dates at all, but there wasn't anyway I could.
I think we should arrange with admin. to keep in touch with regular posters and let us know if there is something we should know (or at least would like to know)
I've asked my Hubs to come on here if anything ever happens to me and let you all know one way or the other.
I think it goes...
"If you believed they put a man on the moon, man on the moon...
If you believe there's nothing out there to see, nothing is cool..."
And I just looked it up and those are not the lyrics lol.
Isn't it funny, how we hear something that sort of makes sense and fits the sound of the words, but isn't the lyrics??? lol
Then on the news last night they were discussing how assaults are rising in care homes between residents. I'm so sad my mom is gone but so glad I don't have to worry about that at least. At least until I'm in a care home.
Then I read that "At least 29 Ontario long-term care residents killed by fellow residents in 6 years". (CBC)
A few days ago I read how an arbitrator ordered a nursing home to rehire a nurse who was fired for stealing her resident's pain medication and shooting up on the job because her addiction is a "disability". This after a long public inquiry about how nurse Elizabeth Wettlaufer was able to get away with murder for years under the noses of those who supposedly have oversight.
What is even worse is that few seem to be terribly outraged about any of it.
The moon is huge tonight, waiting for the eclipse.
DH and I thought it was last night and we kept checking the moon but no change, then we realized it was supposed to be tonight. :)

this was all over the local Facebook groups and multiple homeowners had footage of their doorbells being licked that they were posting. Someone’s plant was also an unfortunate victim. It happened around 3:30am and then 12+ hours later the police were investigating it. Guess they decided to save it for Live PD.......I think bleach is the cleaning weapon of choice most used. I would probably replace the doorbell myself.
It was censored. lol.
power company left a note that the branches are growing in low voltage lines and therefore they won’t cut them - huh?
I called the power company today and complained about Neighbor’s tree 🌳 growing into the power lines
last year, I asked him to keep it cut back and he hasn’t
I’ve had the cable company out several times to replace the cable line which is ensnared in his tree limbs growing over the fence
