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.
Send?
Have you left us or are you taking a day off?
Hey............weed, Hmm .........now theres an idea! :P
Are you home smokin weed on a Saturday night, Mrs. Hepplewhite?
Mrs, Hepplewaite thought she was in DontCareanymore Carehome, little does she know she has entered THE TWILIGHT ZONE.
My dad was in a rehab for several weeks, in a room by himself, and some of his things went missing.
This seems to be the way of these places. I don't know if residents, staff, or both help themselves to other's stuff, or if things just get misplaced -- like socks go missing from the dryer. They go exist into some alternate world, never to come back, or maybe once in a while you find one thing that has crossed back into this world...
Sounds like a Twilight Zone episode. :)
Surprisingly nurse said mom was in bed already so no need to stop for treats
I nonetheless rattle around her room go to the laundry room to look for her missing socks and hangers - despite my buying hangers and putting her name on them there are never any in her closet -
The room is cold and the dang remote to the heating and cooling is still missing
Bump into a resident - mom's only friend when they're not yelling at each other - who's cold so I go to her room to look for a sweater and her a/c in on - It's 46 degrees out
I tell the nurse who says only maintenance can touch it - really? It's a wall unit with an on and off switch -
I turn it off
Oh, dH is making Popcorn now!
So here I sit on a Friday night, 2 pillows under my arm to prop it up so to lessen strain on the shoulder and still be able to use the arm to work, 3 pillows behind me to prop me up and adjustable bed with head up so I can sit up as much as possible. Rolling hospital table beside me stocked with iced coffee, water, muscle relaxers, pain killers, dog/cat treats and my various electronics (bed remote, tv remote, cell phone - which doubles as a roku remote and tablet), laptop on a bed table on my lap so I can work, and warm fuzzy blanket on my feet to keep them warm. Cat curled up and snoozing beside my feet and dog snoring on his bed on the floor at the foot of the bed.
Such an exciting night, right? Woohoo...Friday night!
We have 4 bags of purchased pond pebbles to spread over the former grass areas. Wondering if there is a skill to balancing rocks? Skipping rocks across a body of water? Causing a landslide by removing the wrong rock from a mountainside? Climbing a wall of rocks? How about building a wall of rocks? Instead of a wall, should we have a moat?
I understand the concern about BIG towers of rocks, cwillie - that would definitely be an issue. I'm talking about people complaining about 3 or 4 small stones stacked to make a nice picture - for goodness sakes, if that's the problem, just knock them over and move on. Big stacks would definitely be an issue for the environment and for people they might fall on, so I can see the problem there.
You still with us?
Oh for goodness sakes, people. Knock the stack of rocks over if it offends you and keep on going. Sheesh. People find the silliest things to be upset about. We have far worse problems in the world today than a few stacked rocks.
I had to come here to get away from the stress being caused by the client I'm eliminating. I can't wait to be done with them. Only a few more days....
How many of you would walk by Send's rock garden and admire it and how many of you would want to poke it to see if it fell down?
