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.
stay warm and dry
should I venture out to Marie Callendars for a last minute pie?
If you are dining with friends or family, be grateful for the good parts of the day and meal.

"My stepfather has gone off the rails since my mother passed with gambling. He has lost $11,000 in one month. What can I do?"
That is too funny!
Jimmy Stewart quote:
"“You want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it down."
a new resident was having a melt down (rightfully so imo).
another resident said the principal told her to ask me to take her to her room, which I did as no one else was around to do so - her closet was bare, no nightie - staff had removed her clothes since she packs them in a plastic bag to leave otherwise
for the second week in a row, the Viking was left alone and not given dinner. Staff called the new head nurse who pretended to be aghast - meanwhile her staff is overworked and quitting
by the time I got mom out of solitary confinement and a plate she was in no mood to eat -
another family member found her bed bound mom in a wet bed with a tray left in the corner of the room
by bedtime, the Viking said no to prayers and fought falling asleep saying, don't you dare leave me
but you if you can't make the trek to San Diego, then rent the old Some like it Hot with Tony Curtis and Marilyn Monroe - it was filmed at the Del
(About $799 per night).
Not covered by your insurance, and my advice is free.
Also, I am calling myself 'the doctor' these days...I do that sometimes.
A Hershey' s candy bar is still ten cents.
It is just that it's the smaller Halloween treat size.
But I do remember the houses that were giving out full-size Hershey' s at Halloween when I was just a wee trick or treater. Lol.
the woman in front of me must have had ten pounds of carrots 🥕
i was feeling sassy and asked her if she had a rabbit 🐰
she said, no, it’s for juicing
I replied, oh good for you - I’m buying candy - they are two for a $1
of course, I remember when a Hershey bar was ten cents
still don’t have the Viking’s lab work back and I have a care meeting tomorrow with what’s left of staff
The fires have some containment, the winds have calmed. It is a sunny day, with most of the smoke far away. We are okay here.
I love my socks, very colorful patterns, bright colors. No better gift and my kids know it!
When I read about it, I did try it a few times, on purpose.
Nature can get scary.
Sorry, there are conflicting and confusing reports from the news.

I practiced and practiced until I got it and I became so good that I could walk around the entire block on my stilts. I felt so tall on them! I loved those things. I could have joined the circus because I got to where I could walk anywhere on those stilts. The other kids in my neighborhood wanted some too and grandpa built some for all the kids.
I couldn’t reach the pedals on my first bike. I had to have wooden blocks attached to reach them.
I desperately wanted to make it to 100 pounds when I graduated but never did. Stayed at 96 pounds. Not too much more than that now. I got sick of being called ‘bird legs’. Been that way all my life. I was always very active though. Guess it’s my metabolism too. Nowadays I ride an exercise bike because I had a terrible bicycle accident in my 40’s and had to have steel rods placed on both bones in my arm.
An ER doctor once told me that he saw lots of 40 year old women wipe out trying to in line skate with their kids! Hahaha. I never tried those things. My kids loved them and skateboarding.
Madge, things were always disappearing at my mom's nursing home. Socks, makeup, a nice comforter I bought her. I never said anything cause it wasn't till after my mom had passed and I was clearing her room out that I noticed. By then I had other more important matters on my mind.
