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.
Please read it again Send. That missing hour may have skewed your eyesight perhaps?
LOL, but I think men's private area is the ruling force in their life a lot of the time so maybe their thyroid is in their private area. Who knows right?
I don't think a man's thyroid is in his ahem, private area.
Did I read that wrong? Lol.
Speaking of mammograms. I think there should be an equivalent test for men and their ahem, private area. Maybe, they'd be a little more sympathetic. I know they have to do the whole cough thing when they get their prostate examined but can you imagine how they would react if someone said: " now we are going to put your manhood into this vice and squeeze it really hard, okay?"
You can hold your breath for 8 minutes???
I got a mammogram yesterday and every time the tech said to hold my breath I didn't think I was going to make it
Of course, I was practically standing on my tiptoes and grimacing slightly
I let Tiger out in the back yard for awhile the other day, oh my, he rolled all over the patio, then on the grass before finding a place to lay. He was in heaven! It was about 55 degrees with calm wind. He just soaked up the warm sun on his back.
Are you okay? By my calculations, it took only 6 minutes to answer.
If you were holding your breath, you would have passed out after 8 minutes.
Then memories of time changes while caring for mom. It took weeks/months for her to adjust! It was such a sad part as there became so little that she did not understand. And it wasn't the least bit humorous.
On the other hand, it would make it easier to keep the kids up for fireworks on the 1st of July, they could start an hour earlier at 9:00. Nah, not worth it.
Whenever these changes happened when I had pets, I always kept their schedules in tact. Because they are more in tune with real time.
Just now, when I turned over in bed, the clock said 4:54, and the kindle said 5:54.
I keep losing an hour everytime I turn around!
Someone who goes to church Christmas and Easter only.
Daylight Savings time is Sunday, so set your clocks one hour ahead tonight. No worries, if you mess up, you can wait one hour for church to start, you won't be late!
Pastor Greg Laurie of the Harvest Crusade passed on the CEO christian joke on t.v.
Yes, it borders on coarse jesting. But when I told it to a former pastor dropping off my husband in the driveway one day years ago, he said to me: Well actually, you are a CEO christian. I responded honestly. No, I am not, because I no longer attend your church at all, not even Christmas and Easter.
Behaving Badly after church abuses. Sorry. Not sorry.
But we do not claim to be professional caregivers operating to professional standards. And we can't leave, and we don't have coworkers to help or to restrain us (or egg us on, in this instance). If someone who actually works in the industry is still going to get personally provoked by mentally frail elders then sorry, she's in the wrong job.
Mind you. If service providers aren't selecting and training and supporting their people well enough, they deserve a lot more of the blame.
Of course it's never OK, but we only have the family's side of this story, he may be someone who provokes them. And that sounds awfully like blaming the victim :(
I guess I don't really trust videos because they don't tell the full story and I shudder to think if all the damning things I've done in my life were caught on camera.
Makes you wonder if body-cams for staff might be a wise precaution. The Metropolitan police are using them as standard, now, I think. Maybe just knowing you're being monitored might make you think harder about what you're doing?
I mean... what have those two women got to say for themselves? I bet they don't think of themselves as people who think it's okay to be cruel to helpless elderly men.
You may be right. But with 4 cats and 3 dogs I don't really want to move every 6 months, although I have a few friends here in Mexico who do.
Among the top 10 wonderful weather spots according to the Internet; I won't live in Columbia (too dangerous), nor France (neither hubs nor I speak French), can't afford Hawai'i and we are already in the major San Diego area (too many people and too expensive).
I would consider the Canary Islands or another area of Spain but I'd have to leave all our furniture and cars behind. I have no idea what the cost of living would be.
We heard that an area near Guadalajara near Lake Chapala was perfect. But the area was way too "gringo" for me (like little USA). Way too expensive also plus you have to go into Guad. for everything. Too darn many people for me (5 million!)
We're going to go to Guanajuato, San Miguel de Allende and Colima this year for vacation. Maybe one of these will be the winner.
Isn' t that cute! After what I said about "in polite company", no one is going to ask anyone's age! You are all so very good, for being brats, I mean.
How are the brats doing tonight?
The summers are great in this house, at least 10* cooler in the house than out in the heat.
When we lived in Puerto Vallarta, it was the other way around. The winters were lovely but the summers were sweltering with humidity. Sweating your face off isn't much fun in the cinderblock houses either.
However, since I've "gotten old", I can't seem to tolerate the cold anymore. It aggravates the arthritis in my neck and back and I can't get warm no matter how hard I try.
We're still looking around (Mexico) in search of the perfect climate for retirement. All I'm asking is a warmer climate without humidity. We found the area National Geographic said was the 2nd best climate on earth but it didn't thrill us.
The hilly inland areas are cold in winter and at night. The coastal areas are balmy in the winter but ferociously humid and hot in the summer.
I've got 1, 407 days to go. The search continues.
