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.
Would not surprise me one bit if the antidepressants were SSRI's.
Happens more often than the general public realize.
Don't shoot the messenger.
M O S Q U I T O ! ! !
Don't know how I can be flippant about it. It's just terribly, terribly sad. Sorry, folks!
No problem CM, you can kill my buzz anytime. :)
Sounds to me like six of one, half a dozen of the other, and a shove that was harder than intended. Don't think bullying narcissists go in much for cooking Christmas dinners for their mums, do they? And post lung-cancer (presumably it was the chemo aggravating the osteoporosis) she could be forgiven for getting crabby if he wasn't parboiling the spuds right.
But I'm only guessing. I'll see if there's any more about it to come.
Headline today: "Son 'killed mother in Christmas lunch row.'"
"A man killed his mother after she criticised his efforts at making Christmas lunch, a court heard.
Mark Jennens, 40, tried to throw 78-year-old Hazel Jennens out of a house they shared in a Christmas Eve row over potatoes, jurors were told.
He is alleged to have frogmarched his mother, who had osteoporosis and lung cancer, to the door before pushing her to the ground in 2015.
Ms Jennens... broke her hip and later died from bronchopneumonia in hospital.
Mr Jennens denies manslaughter. The trial... continues."
Given that the three purposes of criminal prosecution are supposed to be: punishment, deterrence and public interest, which of these is this particular charge supposed to be supporting? Does anyone imagine this poor bloke is going to feel any worse sitting in a prison cell than he already does anyway? Or that it will help to make sure he doesn't push his mother over again? Or that it will teach other caregivers that getting frustrated and physical with their sick mothers is wrong?
I suspect this verdict will depend a lot on who's on the jury.
Swat them away!
Thanks for returning to caregivers behaving badly!
Mosquitos are like family. Annoying, but they carry your blood.
Arguing with stupid people is like killing a mosquito on your cheek. You might or might not kill it, but either way, you will end up slapping yourself.
It's mosquito season again......As if I didn't already have enough blood-sucking relatives in my family.
A mosquito landed on my brother's face....easiest decision of my life.
Persons of faith version:
Why didn't Noah swat those two mosquitos?
A mosquito landed on my friend's face, so I slapped him. Then there was another mosquito, so I said, Here, turn the other cheek.....
The pastor is so full of Christ that when a mosquito bites him, it flies away singing:
"There is power in the blood!"
Slap Someone
And yell Mosquito!
More mosquito humor:
My life sucks. Other mosquito answers: Congratulations.
I hate mosquitoes. I know I am delicious, but da#n!
I don't care what people think of me. At least mosquitos find me attractive.
Love,

Yeah I'm not gonna lie, I was getting tired of your crap and just wanted to get back to the house. But, I kept on swinging and making sure you got yours too. All I have to say is... you attacked me, not once but twice, you punks! And as soon as I ran to the house and you all followed me in, this time I went ballistic and sprayed your butts.
I had no choice. I hate mosquitos!!! Mosquitoes are not my friends!!!
Copy and Paste to see if your friends read all the way through! 😛
I am still sick but I am sure others will hold the fort down for you Send. Come back soon. We miss you when you are not here. :)
My Saturday night was nearly identical except I had cookies and cream on a cone
I see your point about filling the squirt guns with root beer better make it whisky
The res can fill the squirt guns with almost anything....pay backs for the really mean caregivers. Lol.
I just got back from shopping...
Oh, and I thought of you and your pets when we visited the dogs.
White chocolate rasberry truffle ice cream, strawberry ice cream, sliced bananas, brownie bites, with strawberry preserves topping. It is diet due to NO whipped cream.
Add one Lactaid tablet. Yum!
My hubs and I already celebrated at the innnout place.
The foaming root beer would clog the squirt guns, imo.
I bought fixins for root beer floats and squirt guns
