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.
SLIGO22, Irish huh, I would so love to go there as well, have you been? I think I'm in the early stages of dementia with my 85 yo FIL. It is really wearing! I'm sorry, it sounds as if you are going through it right now, and after reading so much about it, I'm terrified! To this point, it's been age related decline, but it definitely showing up in the day to day, around here. Sorry for your struggles!
Dreams. I always have the most Vivid dreams in the early morning hours, and if I tell my husband right away, I can remember them throughout the whole day, but unless they are really Crazy, like your's Jeanette, then there gone, like the majority of my brain these days!
COLORESUE, please join in to our conversations here on THE WHINE, I do want you to feel part of this Silly group!
EVERYBODY ELSE, I'll be out caring for a little 8 yo boy today, , my daughters SO's son, a darling boy, and haven't yet gotten caught up with you all yet, still about 20 posts yet to read, but I'll catch, up at dinner time, here Pacific Time.
I was an excellent student and loved to talk in class so all the kids thought I was a show off. That didn't help anything.
I believe for me it's a combo thing. Stress, traumatic events, bad eating habits and lack of those vitamins. sigh I have my doc apt tomorrow, maybe I should just get some blood work done. Hate doing that.. hate thinking they might find something wrong. LOL
Hey Shar, hmmm, so you can only build one house eh? Does it say how big it can be? Can one house be like 30 houses in one? hehehe... a giant compound so to say. I hear ya on a animal rescue. And one of my favorite things is to lay out with my big girl, watch the sun go down and chill.
Busy day today.... one day I might just finish this all up haha.... not.
Pepper trees are invasive nasty trees that just chokes out everything else. Plus when you cut them, the sap burns your skin and whatever you do, don't wipe your eyes. When we bought this land, my husband had to get front end loaders to clear out the dead citrus and the Brazillian Peoper. We didn't have any money to rent much less buy a loader, so we prayed about it and God kept prompting people to volunteer their loaders to help us out.
I also wasn't really thrilled about buying this place because I was envisioned oak trees when my husband said let's buy a ranch. We live is Southeast Florida north of West Palm Beach. I really want to love it and see what my husband saw when he looked at it so I prayed about it and God started to reveal oak trees struggling between the dead citrus and pepper trees. I walked every inch of the place tagging each oak tree I found and when I was done, there were over 200 oak trees living on our land. As my husband cleared the trees I would stand in front of the oaks so he could see where to take special care. Now after 13 years, the oak trees have spread out and look so beautiful. We have been blessed.
Jeanette and Hope, I've read about a supplement that is supposed to help with hair loss and hair thinning. Its called Viviscal. Its available at Walgreens, Rite Aid and Ulta. I've never tried it cause I don't have this problem but its apparently drug free, all natural.
Yes, I got called Skyscraper when I was in Elementary school cause I grew to my full height of 5"10 before I even went through puberty. Tall and skinny and glasses with acne. Oh what fun that was. NOT! Thank God my skin cleared up and I found out about contact lens and I'm glad I'm tall now.
I had better dreams last night. My Mom was in one of them and she was happy.
Really, there is nobody that can answer that question. Pry her docs brain. Your mum sounds like she really is a strong woman and not ready to go anywhere yet. I know you feel pulled. Vacation/mom, vacation/mom.... as far as the legal aspects, I do believe you have a different system than we do.
Wish I could help more hun.
Jude so sorry you have yet another problem to figure out. Wish I could help too but our system is different here in Canada. As far as prognosis goes, couldn't a doctor tell you that?
Gersh, no, I never went to the grief counselor. They called and cancelled my appointment. She had to leave on an emergency for 2 weeks. Meh, guess I will just keep on sluffin along as always. OH OH...I do have to hit up walgreens tomorrow, so I will most DEF look for that product. Sucks that I finally grew my hair down to the middle of my back and now this.
Oh hey Stacey, I am 51. My son is 34. I know he's old enough but... up until I came here 3 years ago. We have always been very close and uhm, yeah, he lived at home. Little butt hasn't even told me if he made the 1800 miles or not.
Hey, how did you know I was also an irritable slug? hehehe...
Thank you all for your well wishes!
Jude, I love hearing of your world travels! I loved my trip to the UK, that is exactly what I used my inheritance money to do, as I wanted to see my parents homeland, and my family there. Everyone was lovely to us, me and my 3 sisters. I dream of going back, someday!
I have been MIA today, as I looked after my daughters boyfriends son, who is 8. Such a cool kif, smart and so polit. I still have many pages to catch up here, but it will have to wait until later or early in the morning, so, see yall later! Stacey B
I know many of you have experienced this w/ your LO's....it's d*mn hard.....thank you for your kind thoughts.....
Hair! Mineis super thick, but I do lose so much every day I need to clean my brush out. My problem is that it is coming in grey, who's isn't, ha! And really curly, where it had always been smooth before. ? Oh well. But I did hear about a laser brush/comb that you use every day, to help grow new hair, might be worth looking into! They sell them on HSN.
