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.
The survey actually came with a cover letter saying to remember the dedication of those providing care for your loved ones- kinda like the car repair guy who says he needs all excellent scores on his feedback
A farmer is also someone who is Outstanding in his field.
Never heard your joke before!
A separate sheet? Have you read your posts about the Hoca?
I would say, an entire ten sheets to throw in the wind at them!
Or, an entire ream of paper packed in a box with a brick in it to throw through their window!
There, did that help? I am so angry too, just thought I could help you express yours!
Ten sheets to the wind, Lol. Isn't that an expression of getting drunk????
Why did the scarecrow get promoted?
??????????????
He was outstanding in his field.

MsMadge! I read your lyrics and almost got hooked on it! For the past few days, I've been humming and singing the words from the song: Pilot of the Airways... I only know the words below, not the rest of the song. I've been singing it over and over...
Pilot of the airwaves
Here is my request
You don't have to play it
But I hope you'll do your best
I've been listening to your show on the radio
And you seem like a friend to me
You make me happy when skies are grey
You'll never know dear
How much I love you
Moving day, on the full moon, and you will be able to get some sleep.
We call that positive thinking! It is a good thing you are young!
Have a great day! Imagine all of us there with you on moving day, cheering you on.

Keep the communication lines open with that aide, giving her your contact info.
Tell her if they jerk your Mom around anymore, or mess with this aide, you will hire her privately. Who cares anymore what the agency rules are....this is your Mom we're talking about. imo.
Two afternoons last week, they replaced mom's afternoon aide who is top notch without telling me why - I assumed she was sick - there was a clear difference in mom by Friday - irritable even with me
Same aide does the overnight shift on the weekend, and she wasn't on the schedule for Saturday night - I was chatting with her replacement last night when in walks the regular aide - so we're all looking puzzled checking the schedule on our phones
Seems agency took regular aide off mom's schedule to put her on a new case 20 miles away - she thought I asked agency not to send her anymore - WTF?
- so frustrating that I can't block these numbers
Reporting to the FTC do not call website is useless too
The right to take photos is protected by our first amendment rights, under free speech protections.
More and more people are going ballistic towards people taking photos. Keep a low profile, you did the right thing by calling 911, and hubs.
We kept our landline and give out that number so our cell numbers are not used for business (businesses can't sell our cell numbers that way). We only answer the landline if we are expecting a call or recognize the number. Otherwise we wait to see if the caller leaves a message. Majority hang up when voice mail picks up. You may want to consider that an option to avoid getting extraneous calls on your cell.
So Yesterday on the way to my Sisters, enroute to the Casino for an afternoon out, I got Rear-ended at a Stop Light!
The man who hit me was Belligerent and So Incredibly Rude, trying to say it was My Fault, when it was So Clearly HIS FAULT, "YOU HIT ME AZZHAT!" HELLO called me Filthy names, as I took pictures of the damage to my car, and his as well, his license plate, and he scared the poop out of me, so I called the Cops, and my husband!
The Cop told him off for it, told him it was his fault and he sighted him with a ticket.
Hubby arrived to tell the guy "BIG MAN", but that's All he said, and the cop took care of all of the exchange of insurance information. Thankfully The Jerk does have insurance, Geico and interestingly, they have already contacted us and I will be taking my new Lincoln SUV (Waa!, my Dream Car), in to have a new bumper and the sensors replaced. Thankfully that was all the damage that was done, that I can tell anyways and at least my Air-Bags didn't implode in My Face! But he became very nasty with me when I began taking pictures of the damage to my car and pictures of his license plate and vehicle as well. It was very unsettling, as I haven't been in a Car Accident in more than 30 years!
Oh, and I lost my Azz at the Casino to boot! Waaa!
I want my Mommy!!!
Now time Warner has become Spectrum they have a service where they can filter them out which has stopped them.
Another thing I found out to my horror is that emergency services and possibly others can listen to your calls even if you have not picked up the phone. In a way it is good because they can monitor you in an emergency.
We found this out because i have just invested in an emergency alert which has GPS so when I push the button they can immediately pinpoint my location and I can talk to them if I cannot move via the base unit. When I go out I have to carry the base unit as well as wear the bracelet. The bracelet is the size of a wrist watch and looks the same but with a blank face which is the button. The base unit is the size of a small cell phone so easily goes in a purse or pocket. The whole thing costs a $1 a day if you pay for a year in advance. I invested in it after my hip broke when I was on a quiet country road. It is far more user friendly than wearing something round your neck. It is even waterproof. I would highly recommend this for anyone with a loved one who is alone much of the time and refuses to put something round her neck
Infuriating. I always fire right back, delivering choice words to these bottom-feeder a**holes. At the same time, I think of the elderly w/diminished reasoning that these reprobates are targeting. And it makes me sick.
Pumpkin, cherry and peach
Be back later tonight. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. :)
