Replacing the much lamented 'On My Mind' profile option, this thread is for musings, jottings, whimsies, preoccupations and the rest of the thesaurus for anyone to jot down anything they please.
I can't remember what the maximum character count was before, can anyone else? But anyway it wasn't very many so let's keep to that.
When people say: "First time in history", I take that to mean this may not be a true statement.
When I was living in San Francisco area, there was a rumor that fog covered the Golden Gate Bridge. When it was often clear, most of the time....in fact,
I understood why the rumor, so too many people would not visit or move there
if there was that much rumored fog.
Just cannot say how beautiful all of California may be. It is probably not as nice as today, or even as nice as we say!
MsMadge,
It will be much colder tomorrow for the parade, with temperatures dropping to 48 degrees F overnight (poor parade goers camping out)!! And tomorrow's high only 66. They will never come back to California now. Yay. One just cannot trust California!
It happens to the best of caregivers.
I started boiling several eggs at once, so I would not have to stand in the kitchen cooking and drive hubs, as I was rushed and trying to get ready.
It was then that I would get irritable.
An online instructional refreshed my abilities to make hard boiled eggs, starting with cold water, once they start to boil, cook 10 minutes. Eggs for 3 days!
Your Mom won't need to cook.
Took a lot of pressure off of me. Sometimes, I even peeled them for dH.
2020 is going to be a better year, as we ourselves learn, and learn, and
re-learn.
MsMadge, I wish it was 77 degrees where I live. Here it is 27 degrees with the real feel being 11. UGH
Send, 66 degrees is great outdoors weather. I would be happy if it was 50 degrees. LOL!!
Happy New Year's everybody. I hope all of you have a safe and a great new year. God please let 2020 be better then 2019! 🎆🎉🌟🎂😁
it is 55 here today. I wish it was 66! It’s cold and foggy. I had to turn the heater on an hour ago because it got down to 62 in here!
happy new year everyone!
She now makes scrabble eggs with oil. Why? I have no idea! She uses to much oil or butter and has the heat to high. This is not how she use to cook and this is all she can make. I keep telling her that she shouldn't cook anymore, but she loves her eggs. So now, I will buy her those egg cups that you scrabble the egg in the cup and put it into the microwave. I hope she likes them.
My sig other took off one of the nobs on the stove, but you can still turn the burner on. Go figure!
It is really hard to tell some one that was a good cook that they can't cook anymore! She thinks she cooks like she use to and doesn't believe me because in her mind she is find and we are wrong! Ugh!(
I think that might just be the worst part about this disease...they just don't see what they are doing doesn't make sense or isn't how things are done!(
48 degrees F.

My Uncle put 2 beautiful fresh cut Christmas wreaths on both sides of our family's headstone at the grave and yesterday,when he came by,he told me that someone had stolen the one off his parent's side.
He said he hoped they were enjoying it and they mustv'e needed it more.
I'm just sick for him and I'll never understand how grave robber's can live with themselves.
Nonenol article....I read that too.
Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize in 2020!
Aren't candles, scent diffusers, and perfumes just what the elderly love to cover up odors? I blame those products, once the scent is in the home, they are going to expire, get old, deteriorate. So I do not spray scents around the home.
Luckylu,
Your Uncle's attitude about the theft is admirable when he says:
"They must have needed it more".
I am going to copy that!
That is just sad. I just don't understand people that can do these type of things!!!
Unrelated.....on New Year’s Day the local news stringer posted video footage he shot of the CHP out with a drunk driver at around 4 in the afternoon. It was a homecaregiver still in her scrubs who said she had had a few drinks. I can’t help but wonder...considering the timing....was she drinking on the job? She looked younger, maybe late 20s early 30s and this sadly isn’t her first DUI.
There were wreaths and fresh little Christmas trees on other graves,I saw today,but for some reason,they stole ours.

They followed the patient and her husband for 10 years.
Spring is right around the corner.
Planning crops, and ordered more bees. I can't wait for Spring. Flowers, birds and butterfly migration, planting and harvesting.
Maybe I will hatch some baby chicks. (I love baby chicks :) )
It will be here before we know it. :)
It’s true. We are used to our routine. Hubby travels. I’m used to it. Sometimes I like the solitude but there are times I miss him and want him home.
He’s in Vegas at the big tech conference.
We have been married for 41 years!
Yeah, crime is bad in New Orleans but I am so sick of hearing about the crap that happens. People are heartless!
Watching the news...A person shot and killed in Walmart. Another person was injured. Glad that I don’t live anywhere near that Walmart. Don’t shop there. Feel awful for the employees.
My gosh. So sad. Cameras are now in church parking lots because of the car break ins while people are in church! 17 cars broken into over the weekend! Horrible...Can’t even pray without crimes being committed. Grrrr
As for crime. Yes, it's getting to be so you can't feel safe anywhere. Then there is what's going on in Australia and Iran right now. I look twice at people now cause ya never know. I've always been a trusting sort of person and like to give people the benefit of the doubt but that is starting to slowly change. It's sad. I don't want to be a cynical person.
