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.
It’s a wonderful idea! I have a friend who visits her mom every week and calls her once a day at her NH.
Her mom has Alzheimer’s disease and my friend has concerns about her mom not recognizing her one day.
The head nurse at the facility asked the activities director if she could help the residents with Alzheimer’s disease connect with their families via telephone calls. She agreed to help. I’m quite sure that she would love to have others helping her out with the phone calls.
I bet your idea is well received by the facility. You’re very kind to offer your services to the residents and their families.
Her third husband was 10 years younger and a Jewish doctor! She was Catholic so they had an interfaith wedding. He had his Rabbi and she had her priest.
I think she may be onto something here!!! 😊 It certainly seemed like she was happiest after marrying him. He appeared to be a great guy.
Yes, it is a disgrace that these situations exist. I am amazed that so many people become involved with following this type of leadership. Again, I use the word ‘leadership’ very loosely.
I suppose that either they are spiritually starving and fall for it or they they have lived very sheltered lives. However it happens, they are horribly deceived by people who have nothing more than greed in their hearts.
It’s fascinating how much control groups like this have over others. Once members of the congregation take the bait they become puppets and do whatever the leaders ask of them.
I feel most sorry for the children who are born into these groups. If and when they get out they need tons of therapy to heal.
Watched part of the worst documentary ever. 🙈🙉🙊
Yep! It’s beyond unconscionable that these things happen.
I completely understand.
I am glad that these sleazy organizations are being exposed for what they truly are.
It is tragic how these young people are abused by their parents and the leaders in their church.
Trust me, I use the terms, “leaders and church” very loosely! They actually belong to a high demand, controlled religious movement.
Or in simpler terms, they are nothing more than a cult. Those at the top are raking in the cash selling their dangerous propaganda.
They are brainwashed to believe that they will go to hell if they walk away or disobey their parents. So very sad.
my daughter always wished for one of those Duggar kids to rebel . Well that oldest boy is in jail !! That’s not what my daughter had in mind. She just wanted the girls to wear pants !!
Watch the doc. It’s well done.
Yep, you are absolutely correct. It was all an act!
It was Shiny Happy People. It’s on Amazon Prime.
Absolutely insane people!
A fun show. But nothing, and I mean NOTHING tops the Haunted Mansion. (I’ve only been to world, not land)
...when you start craving for sweets
...when you start exercising less
...when you start...em...wait, i forgot what the 3rd point was...

Couple #1 Mr I deserve an awe inspiring amazing birthday party every year. Couple #2 Mrs I will call you with every thought I have & demand you pick up & listen everytime.
Sad the power just went out. Maybe four hours to fix. About to eat takeaway in the dark.
Feel your pain re stupid bills & utility companies MD..😪
A book on how to find a real job.
You know, offer a blessing instead?
The rent bill comes with utilities detailed on the bill, and must be paid with the rent, in one check. Following up on the 2nd.
There is an error in the gas portion of the bill. Being charged for 235 cu. ft. instead of 212. The meter is not yet at 235!
After writing, called management who said this:
"I don't know what the meter reading has to do with the billing".
"I did not read your meter wrong".
And other fancy stuff to indicate nothing will be done to correct the bill.
Took a pill, took a nap.
Decided to pay the extortion rate.
Then will start a slow campaign to contact the agencies that monitor these things for seniors. The Weights & Measures Dept. The Gas Company. The CPUC. The Lord God Amighty, who is Jesus.
Not worth anyone's time for $39. Just do not underestimate those seniors!
But it was the Stupid that the manager said that got to me.
unfortunately not the cooking or gardening. My sister loves cooking (not me) and flowers & plants don't stand a chance in my care. 😩
