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.
This is the Caregivers Behaving Badly Thread, to explain.
Mostly behaving badly by joking around outrageously, on purpose.
I knew what MsMadge meant.
She is very funny, and also very subtle.
Anyone can Google the phrase in question and find the meaning.
I was just teasing when I said that I was trying to figure out what she meant, and since the phrase was very similar to a topic in the bible, saying that I was going to go look it up in the bible was, imo, even more over the edge.
She is also a lady, and would not explain what she meant. I think she was the only one who might "get" my humor attempt. I am not intelligent enough to be humorous to the masses. Sorry.
Things are never funny if one has to explain them. But I will try to find something that you will enjoy.......later.
Oh my goodness. I never know what to feed my mom. She is either going to tell me that it caused her to have diarrhea or constipation! Hahaha.
Every time home heath visits and the nurse asks about her last bowel movement I think to myself, oh boy, she gets to discuss her favorite topic!
Well, you already have the blonde going for you then!
Reminds me, time to cover that part blonde, now part gray hair.
CWIllie,
We are supposed to greet strangers politely?
Where are my manners?
Send, I need to hear verbal cues to tell how something was meant. I have behaved badly when misunderstanding an on-line Tongue-in-cheek statement, and I scolded the writer! Oops!
If we give up scolding, we will all be safe.
while it could certainly be a biblical moral
someone way back many centuries ago on the Irish side of the family used to say that after a burp
kinda like
excuse me excuse me from the bottom of my heart
if it had gone the other way
it would have been a ___(fill in the blank)
were they other shoppers or did they want you to buy something?
I seldom say hello to strangers especially in downtown but it is a very nice thing to
do
my coworker who suffered a heart attack at lunch last week passed last night
he was always one to smile while walking around the floor and
that’s not a bad way to be remembered
There are the odd few that say hi and are friendly back but they definitely are the minority. I guess it's odd to say hi to strangers? Too bad.
Once I was in my city hall building waiting in line to be called next. This police officer was there talking to the teller and as he and the lady were talking he started walking towards me then he put his arm on me like I was a post to be lean on. He never said one word to me and I didn't know what to say to him. He didn't even look at me. God knows I am short but I am not a place to rest your arm on! After he and the teller was done with their conversation he simply told the teller to have a nice day and removed his arm from my shoulder and walked out the door. That was the weirdest thing that ever happened to me.
CWilly maybe your energy was just very bright and friendly that day:)
Babies and little girls seem to really like me. Sometimes when hubs and I are out shopping a mother will walk by with a stroller and the toddlers inside just crane their necks to stare at me. Hubs says its cause I look like a cartoon character. Some little girl told me once I looked like Sadie from t.v. I have no idea who that might be.
There’s often an outpouring of support after traumatic events in the world. This increased sense of community solidarity, where [survivors] feel very connected to other members of their community is common.
So, get out there, and enjoy the wave!
Be sure that each of us have our heads up, are waving, smiling, and in this case, not behaving badly.
Uniting all BRATS!
the Viking and I were sitting in the dining room away from the others tonight -
two men who have ants in their pants kept coming up to her
- one had his fly open and another was eating the petals off the flowers and then proceeded to try and escape out the alarmed door
after that we stopped to get her meds and another man put his face in hers and growled to which she replied as only a Viking can do 🤬
then the man with his fly open cupped his hands over his mouth to make an announcement- ladies and gentlemen
we have a good shooter here
as he rapped his knuckles on the table
another resident thought it was a knock on the door 🚪 and nearly fell trying to answer -
hold on, I’m coming
Tonight is the New Moon, August 30th.
Anyone have some Friday night bad behaviors? Or is it them, not us?
And why would anyone want to achieve that, especially on a Friday night?
Non-serious answers only please.
Can you imagine if one of "those people" would try to answer?
I was so upset with mom recently that I told her I was going to soak in the tub and if she needed something to call 911. I know it was mean. I lost my temper. Not proud of it. I'd like to say that she had it coming but no matter what I don't like doing that. You know, saying nasty things. Makes me feel bad about me.
Big hug, it is hard and we do the best we can. Sometimes we say things we wish we could pull back inside us and regret saying. But you are aware of it, so you will do better. Hang in there.
I appreciate the kind words! Please keep encouraging me.
she couldn't settle down for her happy nap -
kept arguing with the demented demons in her head and made herself hoarse so I'd go over to her and stroke her hair and tell her to quiet down and rest -
which she'd do for a nanosecond
Then she did her regular routine of I'm dying- I'm dead, so I asked her if she could wait until after Tuesday as it is her birthday and I already ordered her cake 🎂
and she replied, a$s hole, I don't think you're funny 😂
What kind of cake?
I'm doing a casino theme party for her and her caregivers - ordering Italian food and party city has piñatas in the shape of red dice and $100 bills - ordered baby slot machines from Amazon
am I behaving badly for not inviting Frick and Frack?

nor Frack,
get to come.
Sounds like a lovely and FUN party!
