Miz, I don't think I have slept well since my mom was diagnosised. (over 14 years ago) After she died I don't remember sleeping for weeks. Wish I had drugs then. Couldn't eat either.
One of the exes employees was paralyzed on the job - it was months before he could sleep more than an hour or so.
Like Ted, I've since been on alert for either those late night phone calls from Dad, or now, always listening for him to call for me.
The thing about sleeping is that I can NOT, I could if I didn't have to be half-awake to hear if mom needs me in the night but there is no way I can sleep as deeply as I need to when I know that I am the only one to hear her fall or something.
Thanks, Linda. I guess we are programmed. I know I feel like I have so much to do and I'm overwhelmed. But, hubby has just as much and he sleeps like a baby. What's up with that? :)
it will take a while , minds brainwashed , i still hear dad hollaring but he s sleeping like a baby . told hubby i swear ! i heard him hollaring carrin on on on , hubby said honey ure brainwash ! now that scares me . oh i think i hear bob segar lalala . dont i wish !
I'm so tired but I lay down to nap and my mind just races. Hubby is over there sleeping away. You would think that I could sleep now that I don't gotta listen for Mom. I don't get it.
Just got through giving mil her Saturday bath......oh my. Walked into the bathroom and the cute little container with her butt wipes has poop ALL over the lid and the inside. And I know how she hates washing her hands....ack, ack, ack. Have been concerned because she doesn't know how to feed her dog, has never fed him right...this dog was raised on boiled chicken breasts daily. He's a 20 lb "yorkie boo-boo"..anyway everyday I change the bottle on his dish and make sure he has nice, cold, clean water and everyday it's empty. So I'm worried he has diabetes and she will never be able to handle that. She finally fessed up today that she dumps the water out of the bottle after I fill it. Visions of my hands around her throat..........should be my theme song. Hope everyone has had a peaceful, beautiful day.
195austin me too on dating site caution be carful just warning dont want to see you hurt i know it is easy when we going thru the things we going thru good luck and stay invisible unless u feel comfortable just ad vise think bout u true
miz, you do the thank you notes IF and WHEN YOU'RE ready & if you choose not to do them everybody can just understand! You don't have to answer to them! You've been through SO much & it's time that you get to be on YOUR time schedule...not somebody elses!!! There's a very small, simple word that I'm also having to learn to use...it's very difficult to use, but it's VERY effective...you guessed it!!! The word of the day in the neighborhood is 'NO'!!! Your assignment, if you choose to accept it, is to use it at least once today...It'll make you feel so good & liberated! You go Girl!
Bobbie, SO glad that you made a good cousin connection! How wonderful!!! I have added this site as a 'like' to my FB. Thanks for the info to do that! Didn't realize that they were on FB! Thanks for saying that you'd come on FB! In YOUR time!!! Just excited for you to be there with us for the gab-fests!
sscape, there are MUCHO ladies with your same name on FB. Please post a little more info so I can find you on FB. What does your profile photo look like? Name a few of the people that you're already friends with on FB so I can cross reference that way to help me find you.
Ted, I know now what I'm giving my Mom for Christmas!!! I'll get her a card announcing 'It's a Boy' & tell her I now have the brother that I've always wanted! LOL...cute?? Get a chuckle?
OK, an afternoon smile: This one's for Bobbie to help her to stay outta trouble! LOL

You may not fart in a public place after 6 P.M. on Thursdays. (What? Am I supposed to hold it 'til Friday? Seriously?!)
It is considered an offense to shower naked. (Really? Great way to conserve soap & water by doing your laundry while showering, huh?!)
It took me hours to catch up after three days of our craft fair as uauall lot of advice but no help -on the second day the director said something about the spring fair-I am sure smoke came out of my ears timid little me said THERE will be no spring fair unless others step up it was just the two of us and her-the director doing all the work and the money that is made is for supplies for the senior center What kept me going the the wine I had at home waiting for me. Some of you may know I have been on a dating site for 2 months and have been emailing back and forth with a gentlemen most of that time and plan to meet for lunch after the holidays, I wish the best for all of you the jokes keep me going. I am keeping it simple this year not having any money keeps my awat from the mall and all the crazyness.

Here's my take on thank you notes. I didn't do any. don't intend to do any. Too much for me to handle and Miz, if it's too much for you to handle, screw it. the people that matter to you will get it. sorry Emily Post. Bite Me. OBMEP.
Cried again today. Hubby got a bit upset with me about something and I guess my mind is still very fragile. He apologized and it's all good now. I'm a sensitive person anyway. This makes it worse.
I gotta get into getting those thank you notes written and sent out. I just am not there yet and can't want to do it. Guess I will just have to make myself. Hopefully people will understand. All this stuff to do when you don't feel like doing anything. Here I go whining again. It's one of the things I do best now days I guess. ;)
Can't think of any jokes right now. At least ones I want to post on here or are not offensive.
Gonna go do some paperwork. Illinois basketball game today so that will be a diversion. Love yous!!
Bobbie, bring it. Peach, you too, I will gladly host the first annual gathering of the Crew of the Barbara B. No RSVP needed- everyone come as you are.
Nice one, Ted. I will be worried when I won't be able to understand them! The Gandhi thing was so cute that I spread it among my english.speaking Italian friends.
