Queen B, you bet I like boats, as long as they don't move, LOL Unfortunately, I got sea sick once and that's all it took! We chartered a huge fishing boat out in the ocean, was fine until I saw a little guy get really sick, captain said, "well, just look at the horizon", Oh hell no, I found myself sorry ass running down into the bathroom, already occupied by some guy, I actually tore down the door to get in.. needless to say, he was STILL STANDING there doing his business!!! I was as serious as a heartbeat and offered the captain to buy his boat to just get me to shore. Didn't work... so, for another four hours I died! The moment my feet hit the ground, I was hungry and had a big mac, go figure, LOL :) Keep that baby on the river and I'll visit, LOL

Hey Still! I went on a fishing charter a long time ago and barfed the whole time. Never stopped fishing tho.. I would bait the hooks (long line of tri-hooks) and through it over the side and throw up. Catch the fish, take them off the hooks and put them in the cooler and throw up. Tried to go to the head but someone else had actually crapped on the ceiling when they had their head in the toilet so I just hurled over the side. The crew gave me a five gallon bucket on a rope and I would throw that over the side and haul it up and soak my head. The first mate sat by me at lunchtime and ate a BLT that was all runny mayo and tomatoes
ladeeda.....if you were talking about me disagreeing with you on the other post, most everyone that answered....said take grandma to see some possible facilities.....grandma can't walk so there is no taking her anywhere. The family is ready for her to go and not everyone is cut out for or able to care for someone else. They have decided it's time and it sounds like she was looking for some validation.
ladeeda sweetie, honey-pie...:) went back and reread the thread.....I was on the phone listening to my daughter-in-law and trying to type and stuck the laptop in my mouth.........you need a gold star for your comment......the one who disagreed with you needs an IRISH BOIL..........uninformed maybe? Isn't "there" yet and won't get it when she is? Don't rightly know!!
what thread was it ? id like to read em and weep maybe ? anyone that disagrees our crew will get chewed out :-) you all are my lit chickens , damn im freezing ! under arm s sweatin like hell and im freezing ! think i ll take a hot bath to thaw me up . i washed my hands in warm water i thought oh that feels good , yep i m gonna take a bath , i still havent done any house work , todays st patties day , no work wooohoo ! bobbie - i dont collect sand but seems like everytime we go to the beach we make sure we bring the sand with us lol . i dont know why but we do . shells too !!! when my kids were little we had a empty 2 liter pop , filled it with ocean and half sand , when we got home oh my gosh u could see stuff is alive in that water !!! since 2002 its still in my garage . i think the stuff that was swimmin around is done dead , mm maybe not lol ....
Still... it's true, sea sickness sux. when we go into open sea I take dramamine. got the non drowsy kind and I ain't proud. I take the dramamine a good hour before we hit in inlet. I told this story a long time ago on the thread.... My rich girlfriend had a huge yacht in Newport, Ca. We all got together to take it out and she had it all catered with shrimp platters and all kinds of rich people whore's ovaries, or however you spell or derves. Well, I ate a dramamine and no one else did so I got to drive the boat because the husband was hurling too much to steer and I ate all the shrimp and the little things on the toothpicks. they were pretty good. Everybody else was all green around the gills and I remembered my fishing trip so no way i was doing that again. I actually got invited back the next time they went out so I could drive. Nice. Same thing again. finally I told them about the dramamine....... but they said oh no, you're not cool if you do that. so puking on your feet is cool. wow. Ya, like I ever worried about being cool..... There's enough dramamine on this boat for an aircraft carrier. lovbob
At least you can pull a car over and stop. I feel like shit today and I'm not in a car or on a boat.
One of my MIL's friends came to visit her the other day and MIL's brother was there and he's a pastor. MIL's friend said to her I thought we were gonna take that trip together and MIL said, yeah, what the hell happened to that. And right away she said, I mean, heck, I forgot who was here. :D
Yesterday while I was scanning groceries at the self check out, Mom pulled down her pants and fished a poop out of her Depends and got it all over her hand! I pulled her pants up and wrapped a plastic bag around her hand and held it closed around the wrist with my hand...and continued to check out with my other hand. Thank goodness the pharmacy counter had some wipes that I could clean our hands with before driving home.
miz glad to hear mil still has a sense of humor....good for her...how is she doing today?
Hubby is making corned beef and cabbage.....can I come to someone's house? ewwwwwwwww
Supposed to be 80 degrees today....will send that east, but a little rain might come with it.
New col developing habit.....must be told to take morning meds now.....hard to believe since she depends so heavily on Nexium...can't take anything but that for her "esophageal" as she calls it. Over a month ago, told her she had to start taking "generic Nexium" cause insurance would no longer pay for Nexium, which is true, but since she's been taking OTC generic Prilosec she hasn't griped and whined one single time about reflux......hah hah old woman....gotcha!
linda will find the thread so you can have some reading material...:)
Jam, we haven't heard anything today. It's drivin' me nuts. Waitin' on a text back from SIL. I hate not knowing what is going on. But SIL has her hands full I know.
Thanks for the gold star, Jam! This is the 2nd time she's tried to get one out. The first time I noticed early enough and convinced her to wait until we got back home. I am tempted to not take her anywhere until after her daily poop!
Is it ok that I "shorten" you? WR......I think you may be onto something....but then again, maybe the store just makes her poop...:) I take care of my 86 y/o mil and when I ask her if she's wet it's I don't think so and down the pants our little hand goes....or when she is on the potty instead of looking and smelling she starts squeezing around on her wet depends...ewww. So I'm pretty much at the point where her social skills have deteriorated that I don't want to take her out in public. Plus when she gets in a store it's 3 hours of torture while she looks and reaches for all the "pretty little cans and jars"... ain't it fun.....:)
