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 had to train myself to NOT become involved, because I cared too much. It was hurting me, making me very angry.
I stopped correcting people, calling things to their attention, and understood that it was not allowed to be a good samaritan.
I choose what I can do to help, but when the anger comes up, I walk away.
People call this boundaries, not selfishness. If I was there visiting with you, we would help others anyway as a team, and probably get in trouble for interefering.
Take a walk outside when you feel like exploding. I will be out there, sitting in the shade, arriving just before you.

Look up the owners of the NH, and write your suggestions to them.
OR, write a nice note to that guy who is running the country?
Tell him his mother will be eligible for the same kind of neglect very soon.
Keep it to one page, no rant allowed. Pick one item.
Tell us here what you want changed, because maybe we can change the world one little item at a time.
Oh yeah, The Right Honourable Justin Trudeau.
You write first, then the caregivers from around the world will write to back you up.
Will swear words be allowed?
I too am so weary of the fake facade
Hoca suddenly changed Mother's Day luncheon to today
So starting yesterday they turn the place upside down hauling in folding tables and chairs
Meanwhile residents are left helpless and those without visitors are kept upstairs out of sight
In the midst, one of my favorite residents was moving out to a
Cheaper small board and care
She so deserves better care than she's had at hoca
I hear you guys and even though I miss my Mom so, I don't miss the nursing home visits. They broke my heart. Come to think of it I remember eating family- size chocolate bars quite a bit back then. With a family-sized bag of Lays as a chaser.
Oh well, there are none in the house and I already have my jammies on.... I may as well go read in bed. Night night all 💤
Today I did two - one by happenstance - but I'm set now until 2020
I feel like I have been used and abused by some in this family. Looking at it through my daughter's eyes gives me a different thought. I went into this, like a lot of people have done, blindly. And I still have blind days. They should teach all of this crap in school to every single kid. Some will retain it, some won't. My Trainor at the insurance company I used to work at, said "It is written", and to that remark today, I would have to call BS.
I hope there are fries and chocolate milkshakes in Heaven...no calories or cholesterol of course, after all, it's Heaven!
A friend liked popcorn with her vanilla frosty.
It is so pretty over here, it is almost like heaven. They have flowers, squirrels, and birds and cats over here too.
When I ate all that Chili today, I served it on a blue plate.
Love from Sendhelp.

I wonder if it depends on what device we are using to get AgingCare. I am on an old desk top computer, pre Microsoft #10. I can't use a handheld device, it makes me seasick :(
It's a photo of a man and a dog at beach
With colitis
Even a day at the beach is a victory
