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.
Mwah ha ha ha. I know halloween is over. Taking lessons from bad people. lol.
Disclaimer: I would never.......
Disguise the cookies in a jar of something else. They wouldn't let me take a bite of anything without one of their beady eyes on me. Even hubby was not deemed reliable enough to watch me eat a tomato sandwich.
Bring cookies.
What would you do if we asked you to impersonate the Viking, we snuck her outta the SNF, and you had to spend the night and pretend to be MsMadge's mom for a day?
Well, leave it to the Viking to get out of the hoca anyway.
You are just going to have to break soms rules, bring her pumpkin pie ( without the crust).
Does that count as pureed?
Felt a twinge of guilt enjoying it since mom said "meh" to her puree lunch and then the SNF served her the same flipping thing again for dinner to which she said "that again?"
The SNF is making hoca look more and more attractive
Gershun, what would you do if you were deleted?
That makes me first. lol.
I stayed later than originally thought at the SNF after mom's care meeting today and decided to stop at See's and Starbucks before heading home to change for work
i stocked up on cranberry orange truffles and pecan pie truffles
Send, belated Happy Anniversary to you and your hubby!
Sepsis does have a very poor prognosis especially in the frail elderly. Poor Viking and poor you. This is a terrible time for you both. Big Hugs
Still not feeling the magical "makes you stronger".
Feels more like I need CPR, food, and a shower.
Recommend to already have ALL your papers and house in order ahead of time.
This could have been easier.
Hoping your contractor shows up. Can you remind him, or post something on Yelp?
Happy Belated Anniversary!
Really hoping I don’t have to Behave Badly today...The Contractor was supposed to get started 2 Monday’s ago. I have been given pretty legit reasons for the delay. But this the third Monday morning I really expect them to show up!
MsMadge, my grandmother was nuts for candy, too. Anytime I would walk by where she sat on the couch, she would ask for candy. I bought big bags of Ricola herbal cough drops and would give her those for her "candy." Looking back, if I'd have thought about the fact that she was 103 and wouldn't live much longer, I would've gotten her the real stuff, some great big chocolates and caramels. I thought I was helping her to be healthier by keeping the sugar down. Yeah, I vote you spoil your mom with sweets as much as seems reasonable to you. Nothing worse can happen to her if she has a little candy or some cookies.
I'm sorry about your mom. No IV fluids for 24 hours? How is her body supposed to fight the sepsis w/o fluids? I'm not a doc but that doesn't seem right. I hope you got some sleep. Please let us know how things are when you can. Thinking of you and your mom.
What a marvelous idea, an IV cookie solution that tricks the tastebuds into thinking one was just eaten! Where do I sign up? They can put in a PIC line and I'll make a pot of coffee! Cookies are my favorite food in the whole wide world so, the Viking and I share that.
MaMadge, my prayers that your mom will rebound from the sepsis and that her bottom skin will regenerate quickly. Hugs and prayers.
Send, love your cream puff avitar. Hope you enjoyed your burgers.
