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.
One of the issues is people saying the same words, but the meanings have changed.
Sorry that a family member is ill.
You are the very best person to be giving your sister that advice.
Hoping sister's husband will step up.
Sis called me for advice this morning, I told her she needs to watch her back and defer to family, plus as far as we know now MIL still has capacity to make her own choices. The family drama will begin this morning as sis starts making phone calls 😬
On the day to day living home front, I am very saddened to hear that your cat, Daniel, has died today. 😿
I will be remembering him, the stories you have told, and the way you stood strong with him through to the end of his life.
Prayers for your comfort.
My son reposted a vulgar but extremely funny video on the subject https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x41AYqvlCAs
Not even Boris could keep him after that. Sometimes you just don't know where to look.
Life sucks in so many ways. I'm going to be in constant prayer for a good while I think.😟
Sure we have our anti vaxxers too but on the whole there is no comparison. And our politicians and other elite found out pretty early on that any kind of covid hypocrisy would not be tolerated.
Excuse me?
I just sent an angry text to my "I'll get around to it later" nephew. If we can't reach the targets we will be stuck in this h3ll forever🤬
I’ll do as I’ve read elsewhere: “Pick your battles”. I have enough to worry about rather than worry and grieve over this. Right?!
Thanks again!

Any EQ anywhere can get me nervous.
Saying goodnight everyone on the General Topics thread!
Not staying up to find out more. Will be needing sleep for challenges ahead.
Rest easy caregivers, in God's hands, nothing we can control.
Are you okay?
zzzzzzzzz

One can only go back so far in time on your News Feed to delete.
My instructions were for a different function, a different place (Settings), with the purpose of limiting what comes on to your NEWS FEED in the future.
I could be wrong, because I am not fully computer literate, depending on my husband for the serious stuff.
Thanks for helping. I’m not too good on puters.

Knowing something was wrong, her interpreter eventually got the problem out of her and the reason why she hadn't felt able to tell. He patted her reassuringly and said "of course I understand! We have First World problems too."
This includes discussions about covid. I've enjoyed hearing others on here discuss their experiences with the pandemic generally and how we have all fared with the vaccine (or not).
Lets keep it civil.
Whatever........anything on your mind it says.
But thanks for the warnings.
