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.
I have written the note so many times and don't even remember half of it, so going to the readers digest version Man came, didn't bring tools, asked for mine, got them, asked me to help pull over out, did it......changed part...told me he forgot to bring the high temp terminal components which he needed...won't be back today...table in middle of floor, cabinets wide open as oven sitting /hanging askew from opening...large piece of cardboard taped over open cabinets as now cats want to explore inside cabinets..ain't happening...the man will be back first thing in the am.....crapola......... @*$ *% a $(%"#
Lucky, I hope your thumb starts to feel better. I find the older I get, the longer it takes me to heal from anything.
Sharadale, Sometimes my Mom's blood pressure dips but goes back up...or it varies if the cuff is on the other arm. I hope all is ok.
Susan, that does sound like something out of a movie...Very odd things and I wonder if it is the full moons this month in particular.
Sendme, I will not use that repair service ever again and noticed they have low ratings.
Hope...the repairman was late because he went fishing?! Did he at least bring you a fish??
He was confused all night tonight. Didn't really recognize anyone of his siblings from all the photos I took Sunday. Asked where his truck his, where 'she' (mom) is, going home etc.....Finally I mentioned that I have to leave going to work early - wanted to come with me but got him to his room which he recognized and turned on the football game. Have to miss his happy hour tomorrow as a grandniece is running in a cross country meet in town and her parents cannot make the drive- take dad to it would be a problem so I will stop after work.
And for the 100th time I have to remind Dad, like I did this evening, I am still not driving [had to stop due to a serious injury when I had fallen back in May].
Told Dad that Mom will have to wait until Sunday when our on-line order comes in for pick-up and my sig other can go to the grocery store to pick it up. In the mean time, Mom can use my Dad's lactate milk... "but it taste funny".... me "no it taste the same as regular milk, I know I use it, too".
However, you do appear to be looking somewhat like a donkey! That is so much better than having no picture at all posted.
Sharadale, I really dislike the donald, he has no dignity! To what do I owe the similarity to him? I am not running for office. I have not followed him as of late, has he fired the repairmen of the country? I have all my hair....what? Should my feelings, if I do have any left, be hurt????
I always pay my rent on time, but I JUST DON'T HAVE THE TIME, I DON'T WANT TO, I LOST MY CHECKBOOK! Oops. I forgot!
I follow the rules. But now, today, not so much. I watered on a do not water day, in California! Here is my address.......
You can honor their memory on the new discussion, called:
LOVE NOTES FROM CAREGIVERS WHO HAVE LOST THEIR LOVED ONE.
I never in my whole life ever had a dream about my Father cause I was so young when he died I only really know his face from pictures. But the other night I had a dream in which he, my mom and my late brother were all together. My brother was 55 when he died but in the dream he was about 8 yrs. old and my Mom and Dad were young, maybe in their late thirties.
I felt like this was the universe telling me they were all together now.
I think I figured it out...He had mentioned something about a college game and the time not too far off and in my head I am thinking, what are you talking about, it is Thursday...I forgot all about college games starting tonight..I think one of them even started mid afternoon..THAT is what he was talking about and I am betting a dollar to a donut that is why he was in such a freaking hurry to leave and so intent on not returning...he had to get home to watch the game...
Must be nice, work for yourself...tear folks kitchens apart, go fishing while people are waiting on you to arrive...then forget your tools and your parts and leave again and again make you wait until the next day...I am NOT going into the weekend with my kitchen this way...he best fix it tomorrow or he's not going to be able to watch the game Saturday because both his peepers are going to be closed....by me.....
And Hope ,Im glad you and your Mama are doing good.
Sendme2,The picture of the cows eye you posted,is exactly what I think in my head.Thank you!Hope Veronica is doing better...to all,take care...
