Ever just want to tear your hair out, or someone else's? If you cannot restore a sense of balance, you will run away from home? Just want to say some things without the constraints of staying on topic? Well, this thread is for you! If you just need a short break to let it all hang out, be a brat, then come on, you can do it. No holding back! Go for it, you can do it.
Saw some lights in the area tonight. From the casino lighted yard, to the holy manger in lights, to the lights covering the grass.....all amazing.
Aren't you supposed to . . . . . . what....stay up late Lu, and Santa is gonna know.
FYI, when I had my stomach surgery about 10 years ago, I learned real quick how to get off the bed and how to lie down. Seems doing this for a stomach surgery also helped a lot for upper chest muscle pain. But, I don't know if it would apply for cracked ribs. Best to google...
I hope you heal Fast!
I will google ways to heal it faster and what to do and what not to do,etc.That's a great idea.You have helped me.Thank you for caring.
You really do "get" it since you had stomach surgery.That must've been awful and I'm sorry you had to go through that.
I hope you and all the other wonderful caregiver's out there have a good Sunday~Take care!..............And No Falls!!!
Healing fast.......
Resting more...
Are you behaving, or behaving badly?
Back to cleaning up at the caregivers center in the morning. I've got painters coming and I'm going to work on cleaning up bathrooms and kitchens. A couple of ladies are coming from church to help. Hopefully we'll get most everything cleaned up by the end of the week. I have to have the second round of Eylea shots on Tuesday.
Hope everyone has had a good weekend.
Driving dH home, we were lightly rear-ended (light tap, really)! Pulled over anyway, assuring the young driver there was no damage, we were fine. Telling him just wanted to make sure he was not driving impaired. We did not exchange ins. info, as I told him to drink water or coffee, (strict grandma) and he was lucky it was us he hit, as I smiled.
A few minutes (a very few in traffic) down the road, there were flashing lights, ambulance, paramedics, fire dept. pulling cars apart-a four car pile-up in what would have been the lane next to us. It also would have been the lane he turned across, at that place, at that time, if he had not been delayed. Traveling mercies, I suspect. No damage to our car. A little holiday miracle, but not for the accident victims.
The cars today, really get crunched up when they crash.
And I believe that too, Cwillie. I really should not have gone out in traffic to pick up dH.
He could have taken Uber home. We were, however, going very slow in bumper to bumper traffic. It was stressful just with the many lights, the ambiance knowing people were frustrated and themselves in a hurry to get home. Fortunately, I was in a good mood.
Don't underestimate the stress of traffic....we are both sick with head colds today, resting up as he has the day off.
I would give almost anything to be able to ice my piriformis muscle by sitting in a pile of snow. If I don't ice, I can barely walk at times. Thinking of having crushed ice delivered in a huge plastic tub. When shopping at a market, there was an empty barrel of crushed ice-I just wanted to jump up there and sit in it. Alas, I could not.
Things are getting worse, having hot chocolate later, when I can get up.
Almost as bad as when he wanted me to use my days off to go down to NYC to help after 911 or many years ago when he wanted me to go and assist with earthquake rescues.
Problem is I am the one with the license so he thinks he can tag along
I tell him there are plenty of foreign countries where his very elderly British Medical license would not be a problem. No that is not a good idea although he did want to move us to Chile at one point because the cost of living is much lower. No not going I'll help you pack.
Encourage a purposeful retirement.
Are the two of you able to travel?
Out of the kindness of my heart, and because it was so cold out yesterday, I took a man into my home. Felt so sorry for him. Poor thing was frozen stiff and just sitting on the corner. He was so cold, I had to literally drag him. This morning he just vanished. Not a word, not even "goodbye" or "thank you" for sheltering him!! The last straw? I realized he had peed all over the living room couch I let him sleep on!
Like SERIOUSLY 😡😡😡 That's the "thank you" I get for being good to people?
So, watch out for this man! He is heavy set, and he's wearing nothing but a scarf. He has a nose that looks like a carrot, 2 black eyes and his arms are so skinny they look like sticks!! Don't bring him into your house! What a huge mess he made in my living room. But he did leave me his scarf! He goes by the name of Frosty.
Sorry about your couch.:(
You have done it again!
Instead of standing in line for Santa,
I could have iced my piriformis muscle
on the couch, before the ice melted.
The only thing that matters is,
What kind of chocolate was it?
Like my family, now taht I think about it.
He was on Dancing with the Stars if you can believe it............and he actually is a very sweet man. But, having said that, no I wouldn't want to smooch with him.
