Hey folks, welcome to the new whine/general topic thread. Feel free to use this thread to discuss anything that is on your mind. Caregiving- related stuff, life after a loved one's death, your own emotional wellbeing. Whatever..........anything on your mind.
I am absolutely jealous! I’m so ready for fall!
One thing most of us never get enough of is sleep. A good night sleep does wonders for the body and the mind.
I hope you still have time to stay in touch with us occasionally.

Vancouver experienced what they referred to as a "heat dome" a couple of years ago and it was 44 celsius. Now that was freaking hot. Scary hot. So I know we've been lucky this year. I think the highest it's gotten this year is 33 celsius.
We do have an AC but I personally hate it. Hubs would love to have it on all the time but the noise and having frigid air blowing on me isn't a personal favorite of mine.
I got one the other day that actually interested me. I emailed back with the caveat that my availability is extremely limited and that I'm out of the country for the month of November. They came back even stronger, asking for a resume. Sent them another demurral this morning and they came back more insistently that they want to talk to me. So I sent them my bona fides and we'll see what happens!
Wishing you all the luck!! 🥳🥳
What are some of your plans for retirement?
Can be bittersweet.
It was a mystery.
But looking closer, it was fun recognizing who the poster was without seeing their name.
Still, a frustrating glitch. Hope it's fixed soon.
My dH said it has not been hacked, but may be from site development.
He said not to worry.
:)
The site is weird right now but they are supposed to be working on it.
Enjoy your retirement!!!
I hear you! I am done with summer too! I would also freeze during the winter months in colder climates.
Need, I prefer needing A/C to months of needing a heater or fire but, this record breaking heat is really tough this year.
We aren't even getting down to 77° overnight and I am soooooo done with summer already I would love a single day of 77°, it would be a reprieve to be sure :-)
I am always amazed at the difference tolerance levels based on where we live.
Oh my gosh, it would be a delightful not to need air conditioning!
But then people in BC often don't have A/C.
Summers are always too hot where I live!
Funny topic.
I thought of a topic for a new thread but then realized it's not caregiving related so I'm bringing it up here. I was going to call it Getting Song Lyrics Wrong.
For instance: That song by Billy Idol, Eyes Without a Face. My DH thought the words were How's About a Date.
Neil Diamond's song Crackling Rosie? I thought it was Crackling Rosie peed on board. LOL
My mom thought the hymn Jesus Loves Even Me was Jesus loves Eve and me cause she had a sister named Eve. :)
Anyway, just thought it would be a fun topic. Share if you like.
