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 Love that commercial . I stop what I’m doing to watch it when I’m in the kitchen and I hear the music when DH is watching TV .
That’s funny!
AZ doesn’t observe daylight savings time, right? That’s different from other places too. I think there is one other state that doesn’t observe. Can’t recall which one though.
Growing up in Nevada we got Halloween off, it is Nevada admission day. Imagine my surprise that Halloween wasn't about Nevada at all. :-)
I love Reese’s chocolate eggs!
I adore botanical gardens and love to visit them but I would never pick any of the flowers.
Wait, my dream got even weirder! 😆 As I was walking along with the flowers in my hand, I decided to eat them! LOL
I started to wonder if they were toxic and thought that I should go to the emergency room. Then I decided that I would be too embarrassed to admit that I stole flowers and ate them.
My husband says that a dream analyst would have a field day with my dreams!
Why would I dream such a thing?
The only thing I can think of is that my daughter was telling me about toxic plants when we were looking at poinsettias. She brings her dog over to our house quite often. She was reminding me about poisonous plants.
I have always had strange dreams.
I have a friend who started hallucinating from meds that she was given in the hospital. She was having a hysterectomy. I think it was a reaction to Demerol, if I remember correctly.
Her mom was visiting her and she told her mom, “Mom, let’s pick some of these beautiful pink tulips!”
Her mother pushed the button and hollered, “Please send a nurse in! My daughter is having hallucinations about tulips!”
It is ridiculous how marketing is handled in the retail world.
We barely celebrate Valentine’s Day here. It’s overshadowed by our Mardi Gras!
We don’t celebrate Presidents’ Day either. It’s not a holiday from work or school here.
The kids here get a week off school for Mardi Gras. One year we went out of town for Mardi Gras and my kids were confused why kids were going to school in that area! LOL. 😆
They were young and thought everyone had the week off for Mardi Gras!
While I wish to be cremated I do enjoy collecting tombstone sayings and "Stubborness killed Her" is a good one!
Any who, while reflecting on her death, mom said of her "stubbornness killed her." Stubbornness is also what killed the friend's mother 10 years earlier when she had her own health woes and underwent cancer treatments.
Unless my mom finally wakes up and smells the coffee regarding PT and being up and around the house more frequently, I'll be telling everyone that exact phrase should she pass away sooner than expected in the near future.
I'll also tell people "I couldn't do anything with her." She had said that when it came to her being unable to deal with stubborn relatives and friends or others who lost someone that was guilty of stubbornness. She told me she's never going to change regarding her own stubbornness and thinks there aren't any honest caregivers out there.
In related news rent will increase in county run seniors apartments from $867.22 to $1,300. Fortunately there is rent control on occupied units.
What a sad story.
Can’t agree more with you!
Look over your contracts carefully and make sure they do not allow short term "evictions" on ownership changes. We think the new owners plans are to replace the AL with an apartment complex - since the number of new comers moving in has restricted available apartments and houses here. You can make more money and have fewer "regulators" looking over your shoulder on straight rentals vs dedicated "senior" rentals.
Frugal, not cheap.
No wonder wishes do not come true-everybody is doing it all wrong.
Send, I’m glad your surgery went well.
We’ve been watching the Geminids on clear nights. Make your wishes on “falling stars”.
But they gave me drugs IV.
That went even better!
In the U.S., we throw pennies in the fountains, wishing wells, and ponds.
If you find a penny, they are called pennies from heaven.
Yes, the Coin Star machine is also automated.
I wish Vince Guaraldi would have recorded more music. Love his compositions!
