Hey folks, welcome to the new whine/general topic thread. Feel free to use this thread to discuss anything that is on your mind. Caregiving- related stuff, life after a loved one's death, your own emotional wellbeing. Whatever..........anything on your mind.
I believe I'm going to have scars on those abrasions. I tend to scar easily in the area above the lips. I already have a long scar that crosses a bit over my upper left lip.... I switched from using antibiotic cream to now Petroleum jelly. Hopefully it will help it to heal and not scar too badly.
On another note, I went to the grocery store today. I now have lots of gray hair that washes out my pale face. It makes me look so much older and plainer. I actually wear bright costume jewelry necklace pendants to draw people's eyes away from my bland face to the pop of color. Of course, I could try to learn to wear make-up. Nah!!!
Anyway, at the cash register, the male cashier asked if I was 55... 'Huh?'... Are you 55?... 'Huh?'... This was done 5 times before he finally asked, "Are you age 55 so that you can get the senior discount." Ohhhhh... I replied back excitedly, "No! I can't wait until I reach 55 though! Then I get discounts at the movie theater, Ross, stores..." He laughed. (The last time this happened, I reacted seriously and the cashier was quite embarrassed for mistaking me to be age 55.)
Take good care of yourself!
I've had my share of accidents due mostly to my own clumsiness. I remember one time Hubs and I realized that when we were wearing thick socks we could slide across the kitchen floor. So this became a thing. Then one day I said to Hubs, give me a little shove this time. So he shoved and I went careening across the floor and fell quite hard, actually knocked the wind out of me. Hubs was mortified, I just sat there and laughed really hard at how stupid we must have looked.
Thank goodness you're ok
Heal quickly, Book.

I got to hoca about midnight tonight to do a quick check on the Viking - she woke on and off and said she was sick but we managed to get through prayers, drink some apple juice and make plans for the 4th of July - wish we could actually run away and do them
The Staff hadn't gotten down to my Mom's room, so I just stayed with Mom in the common area. Lo and behold, some more residents were out and about. Then I heard one Nurse say "Lord, give me strength". My gosh, it was like herding cats.
Sweden def Mexico but Mexico still advances with Germany knocked out by Korea
Ole ole ole ole
I'll probably be the only one at the office doing the Viking clap today
How are your feelings now, coming up on the full moon this week?
Hoping you have some great yarn to sort......
Once I answer and a live person gets on line, if I hear dozens upon dozens of people talking in the background then I know it is what is called a "boiler room" an outbound call center.
Like, enough already !!
Today I got another email about collecting my "forgotten" tax refund.... too bad it isn't legit because by now the total must be well over $1000.
Today at work when I got a call, I told the caller I get around 5 calls a day, and that it is to a point where we don't want to use anything related to Google, then hung up.
We have a high rate of home invasion/burlaries/robberies. I now make it a habit of signing out on everything, even here on AC. So, with Amazon, after I figured that drop menu was useless on the laptop, I found another way. Tap 'Account' and then Tap Login/Security. Change account name. And right on the top right of that pop up box - is the Sign out. .. This is 50/50 hit or miss. For the past few days, it's a miss. It's been taking me straight to the account info and not the 'change acct name'.
Today, I spent 10 minutes trying to click on everything to find a 3rd way to sign out (1. Account drop menu 2. Login/Security) Couldn't. So I googled.
3. Go to the search box on top with "ALL ……………" and type in "Sign out of Amazon".
Tada! click to sign out....
Sweden v Germany
