I'm tired of cooking/preparing 3 meals a day. It's just the two of us but boy oh boy can that woman eat!! She stays slimish, I get fattish. It's bad enough I do everything here much less start making her one thing and me the other. At times I feel guilty when I buy her fast food cuz of the nutritional value....not to mention I eat it too.
New England gets cold! My youngest daughter has started dating a guy who grew up in Concord, Massachusetts. She met him at a birthday party when she went to visit her friend in Denver awhile back.
He lives in Denver now. He moved to Denver after his parents divorced. His mother moved to Denver. His dad lives in Rhode Island. He has been visiting my daughter here. He is enjoying New Orleans but hates our summer weather!
My daughter is looking forward to moving back to Denver. She loves the snow! My southern daughter has acclimated well to the cold and snow! She hates the heat. Her dog hates the heat! He has the double coat of her and it’s so hot for him.
My mother doesn’t want to run the air conditioner, not sure it’s because of the electric bill or what. Finally told her for the aides’ sakes she needs to put it on. Good gosh.
Too many things going wrong for me today. Had to talk to very rude people.
My wish:
I need to become more lucky.
Sorry you’re having a bad day 😌.
The usual custom is to be thanked - a hand raised as a laid back sort of half wave.
Instead, the 'man' inserted his middle finger into his mouth, slowly suggestively removed it to give me a strong middle finger up gesture. Then roared his engine & sped off.
I say 'man' but when he turned to face me the left side of his face appeared heavily tattooed, or was he scaled? I wondered if he was a man sized lizard?
Sigh. At moments like that, I think well.. if that's the worst thing that will happen today, ok.
So sorry . Obviously lizard man is a sick individual. Earth is tilted off its axis and the universe has no regard for the human condition . Hence the need for this Forum .
What a loser.
Lizard man is a jerk!
I don’t know how anyone can go without air conditioning in this heat!
Concord is nice. We were there years ago on a trip to see the beautiful fall leaves in New England. We flew into Boston, visited Concord and Lexington, New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine.
All those places you mentioned I know well.
I love spring! One of my favorite trees in the Spring are the cherry blossoms! So pretty! I also love the dogwood trees. We went to D. C. and Virginia to see them. We don’t have those trees here. They are beautiful!
I seem to bump into a huge amount of dishonest and rude people (like yesterday). People who don’t keep their word. It’s people I can’t avoid. I hope soon I have better luck of just bumping into better people.
And I’m thinking, they have no idea what’s up ahead. (Meaning caregiving and solving problems for elderly people.) (The movie’s not about that at all. But you can see how my mind works.)
My dad was in good spirits. I left feeling good about it all. It was a good day.
Lol. My daughter recently told me that based on her future FIL’s personality , she is assuming he will be very difficult to deal with and stubborn when he’s elderly . I told her to eat a chipwich . 🙄🤷♀️.
Hothouse,
Glad you had a nice visit. I remember having the rare nice visit with my mom . DH has had rare ones with FIL as well but not recently .
I have been looking forward to seeing him on the 1st. He had reservations to fly into New Orleans and stay for a week.
In one phone call, everything changed. He was having difficulty speaking and in the ICU due to a stroke. He certainly won’t be coming home to visit now. He’s been through so much. I hope that he can recover quickly.
Then, later in the day, while my husband and I were out running errands, my oldest daughter calls, she is going back into the hospital. She too has many health issues.
So many people take their health for granted and others struggle horribly. I get a little down at times thinking about how many things can go wrong with our mental and physical well being.
So glad you had a nice time with your dad. My mom loved Sinatra!
That’s my go-to for everything now: chipwich.
Lost at Bingo? Chipwich.
By the way, you did great at Bingo today!! And I was so glad to see Daisy.
Yes , I had fun at bingo , the strawberry lemonade was also yummy .
Daisy says she is tired now .
