Replacing the much lamented 'On My Mind' profile option, this thread is for musings, jottings, whimsies, preoccupations and the rest of the thesaurus for anyone to jot down anything they please.
I can't remember what the maximum character count was before, can anyone else? But anyway it wasn't very many so let's keep to that.
I admire her for getting a new dog. After having to put two of my beloved dogs down, I can’t bring myself to get another one and go through that again.
Most people young and old are scrolling through their phones. The magazines are hardly ever read these days in waiting rooms.
I remember telling a friend of mine that I would occasionally pick up a magazine to read in the waiting room at the hospital. She told me that she never read them because of the germs from the sick people. LOL 😆 She’s a nurse. I can be a germ freak too but I never thought about not reading a magazine.
Now to upload a dozen+ supporting documents.
The doctor removed three polyps and saw a fourth one on his appendix but couldn’t remove it so he now has to have his appendix removed.
I was all for the home colonoscopy testing before which we usually do but it’s definitely better that he went in for the standard colonoscopy.
The last time that I did the home test it showed blood so I had to do the standard colonoscopy. It was a bleeding polyp, nothing serious.
In the hospital waiting area right now. Hubby is having a colonoscopy done. Needless to say, my husband didn’t have a great Valentine’s Day!
I do love that hospitals have coffee shops in them. Just ordered my morning cup of coffee since I don’t have time for coffee before leaving home.
Today's day starts with a V
Eat chocolate if you dare
Compassionate care is key = Ll, 2/14/23
I'm not doing anything. No beau. But I'll buy 1/2 price chocolates tomorrow, so it's definitely a worthwhile holiday. 😁
Well that trip to the grocery was sensory OVERLOAD for me! Either everyone is out readying for the snow, or last minute shopping for Valentine's and kids out of school today? I have no idea, but strange! Then the wind certainly didn't help!
And of course the grocery is in the process of rearranging the store. They are preparing to add table wines to the shelves as they can now be sold in every grocery. I am sure I forgot half of what I went in for.
The main reason I started watching that soap opera was because my Mom-in-Law watched it, and it helped me to start communicating with her about the plot lines when I was first married. Even after the divorce from her son in the 1990's, she insisted I remain one of her best friends :) We continued to talk soap opera for 25 years more.
Must get some garbanzos to toast and see how they are as a crunchy chip substitute.
Funny! I have never screamed in a theater. My parents took us to see The Beatles movies at the drive in theaters. Remember those?
The Beatles? And their crazy screaming fans! My poor dad took a friend and I to see HELP in a theatre. OMG! The screaming drove me nuts and of course my friend was one of them! I remember dad shushing her but not what happened after that. I wonder if she stopped. We were sitting in the first row of the balcony so that probably made it louder and even more uncomfortable!
My grandparents watched Lawrence Welk every week! My younger brother and I always laughed at the bubbles! Grandpa loved to Waltz and they enjoyed the dancers on the show.
I saw The Beatles on Ed Sullivan and was in love with them. They played at City Park in New Orleans when I was 9 years old. I begged to go. Tickets were $4.00! My parents wouldn’t take me 😔. They said that they didn’t want to be around all of the screaming girls. I told them that I wanted to be one of those screaming girls.
Elvis was on Ed Sullivan. Tons of performers went on his show.
My grandparents alternated watching Bishop Sheen and Billy Graham on television.
Grandpa loved watching baseball. His favorite team was the Yankees. Grandma loved her soap operas! I never did watch those but my mom loved The Young and the Restless.
Hey, Zeppelin saved me from the crappy disco scene from that era! LOL 😆
Nowadays, Robert Plant is singing with Alison Krauss. Who would’ve ever seen that coming?
I saw Elton at our jazz fest. He was great!
I'm just picturing seniors playing air guitar to Led Zeppelin. LOL
The only thing that I ever saw in the lounge at my godmother’s nursing home was Steve Harvey on Family Feud! LOL
My godmother had Alzheimer’s disease and was blind from macular degeneration and wasn’t aware of much.
She wasn’t even aware of hurricane Katrina. She said, “Isn’t it nice of the nursing home to take us on a road trip! She had no idea that it was an emergency evacuation.
Same thing at the nursing home that my mom did her rehab in. It seemed like the television was stuck on Family Feud!
Occasionally, a volunteer would play music for them, piano, guitar or violin. Sometimes gospel singers on Sunday.
