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.
I have read some that there really is no cure.
I am ready to fight for my space.
Teenager was in the driveway and said her mom orders a lot of stuff
Now I regret not opening it
You are such a kind person, MsMadge.
Returning all the paper products to costco tonight $42.31 Yes sir ree bob! That is forty two dollars and thirty one cents.
The News had been there earlier because someone returned a live christmas tree.
They do not sell them at this location.
The tree was dead.
The customer was refunded their money.
Sheesh.

You may still find the comment....
Think I saw some recently on what's for dinner, or general topics.
Don't feel bad, feel bratty!
Waiting for the mood to strike me, as I am doing battle with hoarding issues.
Both hubs, and starting with my own papers from 20 years ago...I am on it!
When you're done shredding you
Can come shred all mine
Ps credit unions and others usually have shred events this time of year
I bought some bright red nail polish for mom, the fast drying kind. I watched a lovely tutorial on the internet that advised all you needed to do have a neat manicure was to use a q-tip and put petroleum jelly around the edges and mistakes would wipe right off, so I was a little - OK a lot - cavalier in my application. Hm, maybe I didn't put the vasaline on thick enough? I'll have to go back later with the remover, but in the mean time it looks like a 4 year old got into her mommy's nail polish. One positive, at least mom can't see it😝
Like come on, I realize my parents 1940's income tax return could be interesting, but I doubt all of the other years' worth need to consume one's time :P
My Dad saved warranties for things I never found in the house. And all the printed pages he printed off of the computer for information he wanted, but he would print on the back of pages just to save paper. What a mess trying to match what pages went with what items.
I dispose of anything I think i can get away with such as stuff from charities. He wants to open all his own mail. that's bad because it is often paperwork I need to keep for taxes which I hate but he is helpless when presented with forms. he's one of those that will turn up at a tax preparers office with his pockets filled with bits of paper.
I do have my failings too because i keep everything that I think may come in handy especially in the form of crafts.
Hope the nurses don't mistake the red on mom's nails for blood
You didn't fall in the shredder, did you?
No, but was outside washing the paper-dust out of the shredder, it has been working overtime. My hubs had a vicious accident. He accidentally said, (when I came outside with the shredder basket and the garden hose) "HERE, HERE, WHAT IN THE HECK ARE YOU DOING WITH THAT?"
I am still laughing. Where do they come up with this stuff? LOL.
"Here, here, what in the heck?"
Really though, in all fairness, he is not really like that. Like I said, I think he had an accident. It must be stressful for a hoarder to become undone. I am sympathetic.
When he left his cell phone home Friday, he tried all sorts of manipulation and control trying to get me to take him home. It was as if he lost an appendage. We had to buy tires and wait. Maybe he has not recovered yet, this was a first. I am getting worried about him. Today, he napped all day, then said he had to go outside because of Sundowners, also a first for him.
Should I stop working on clearing the hoarding? I have not touched his stuff yet.
Well, I take that back, he wanted to save the used paper plates....
Kinda early if one has not slept, yes?
Up all night here.
Bad news - a lot of elderly get blocked salivary glands from dehydration
