Hi Rip, Little Tenny is better,but I soared down hill-I don't bounce back like I once did,I'm all bounced out.She woke me up to tell me Bobbie won boat time.My mate passed away before my dad did.He had bladder cancer and it moved to his brain and his lungs.It was so horrible words can't describe it. My mother died of liver cancer,so Cancer was already a very bad word for me.My dad and I was already close,he was very impressed with how I took care of Jeff,so with him losing his wife[my mother] and me losing Jeff made our bond that much stronger.I was bouncing around taking care of both,then after the funeral,I went back to takin care of my Dad.The down side was the lawyers in the family.Jeff's brother is a State Representative and he used his power to do some dirt and change some things around also.I sometimes believe that is where my brothers got their ideas from.My dad was consistly telling my brothers how aweful Jeff's people did us.My daughters piggy bank even disappeared.I heard Jeff arguing with his brother because he thought his son should be in the will.This person lives in a house that looks like Gone with the Wind-big 3 storey southern mansion.I think Linda is right ,in my will I'm going to leave my brothers something in my will to cover my self a pile of manure or a out house with all of the contents.What happens to you when you become a lawyer to make them so inhumane.Does the greed grow like black mold on the heart?
Some employees bought their boss a gift for his birthday. Before opening the gift, the boss shook it slightly, and noticed that it was wet in the corner. Touching his finger to the wet spot and tasting it, he asked, "A bottle of wine?" His employees replied, "No." Again, he touched his finger to the box and tasted the liquid. "A bottle of scotch?" "His employees replied again, "No." Finally the boss asked, "I give up. What is it?" His workers responded, "A puppy."

Bobbie,the real reason I am up,because I was in bed sick and sleeping is because little Tenny came running in the room annoucing that Bobbie has made boat time by being the 7300 posts.She woke me up to tell me this,I said,' what elese is happening"[nothing, thats it] she replied.
Woke up to get some firewood in.I was enjoying my wood stove,but it seems like alot of work when you are sick.I don't know why,but everytime I am sick I think how it would be being 85.I think what a God send this Aging Care is to so many people.If I had known of it at the time of my Dads illness,it would have made a major difference.My biggest support system was the dog and the ambulance people.I called them very often in the middle of the night asking advice. The emergency room was always full and they would put you in the hallway,sometimes for hours.It would take all day to get a room sometimes,so I got where I would call first to make sure they had space available.I would sleep in the hospital bed at the house because my dad refused too.I would sit there hugging a pillow rocking just like they do in asylums-no one to discuss anything with,no neighbors just 22 stray dogs and a bunch of cows.Before my dads sister passed away,I tried talking to her about how badly I needed help,but my dad said I was barking up the wrong tree,she never helped with her mom,my dad did.The home health people were all freaked out because they were imtimadated by my brothers power.I haven't seen the nurse since my dad has passed but when I do,I think I will have plenty to get off my chest. Chicken S!!!!!t people.Even though my brothers have caused me great grief and pretty much ruined me financially,I would rather be broke than have to endur what they are carrying around in their sub-conscious,boy you talk about bad aura.I'm over thinking things because it is the end of a really long and stressful year,not exactly how I wanted to enter my fifties.The people who chose to stand by me surprised me it wasn't the people that I thought would stand by me.Angels come in all shapes and sizes,sometime it may be the person you least suspect.One highlight of the year was going to see Bobbie,my daughter hasn't stopped talkin about that yet.My butt hurts thinkin about it also--long drive.Hopefully with the new year,others can make it to the boat to share stories or maybe make some new stories.

No matter how you choose to say it, wanna wish you HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Not just an ordinary birthday, but the best ever!
Thank you for everything! We love you more than you know!
Nancy & Betty, and Jim & Tom were in the old people's home. Nancy & Betty thought Jim & Tom weren't getting enough excitement so they decided to run naked past Jim & Tom's room. Later that night they did just that. Jim looked at Tom and said, "Did you see that? What in the heck were Nancy & Betty wearing?" "I don't know, but whatever it was, it sure needed ironing."
I just found this awesome thread. You guys are so crazy, funny, uplifting....shall I go on? I hope I can jump in here and be a new member of your group. I care for both of my parents who just happen to love misery. I need all the help and understanding that I can get.
Bobbie, I will send one that has an angel and your idea for a comment is perfect! Angie always calls us her angels. I'll let everyone know where to see what it looks like. Happy birthday!! Peach will have a box for you from me when you meet. A belated X-Mas/birthday present. I will post my address on f/b on the Crew. Please, if you aren't able to contribute, it's not a problem ! There will be another time to help one of us in the future. I hope to be meeting Angie when things get settled down for her. I'll let you all know when, and be sure to get pictures of us to post on The Crew! Have a good night everyone! Kathy
Bobbie - Keep that boat ready for visitors. Don't think I'll get there soon but hope to be able to someday! I've been trying to catch up - sorry if I missed your birthday. If I did, hope it was the best ever! If not, hope it IS the best ever! I will never be able to thank you enough for giving me the family I need! Love and kisses to you - Kuli
Have a good rest tenn. Duct tape on fence who does that? Or should we be grateful they thought to bring the tape?.... Who are these people.... Also the you will get use out of the expensive lotion when you use it on mother...Lovely, does she come up with that crap herself or is there a web site for asinine commentary from slacker siblings? Query long post back here...I am afraid the pervy-tude from grandfather isn't age related, he was always the one to "kiss the girls' grabby squeezing get away from him type. My grandmother one time when they were here tied a scarf around my neck to cover two inches of cleavage and i had no idea why, now I know. If there is anything more to this than his collection of porn, his leering looks at me (no not naked or good looking) his insipid sicko comments to Me and only me about that's how worms mate leer leer I mean what the hell. I have no actual abuse issues here to mention but he is the socially retarded sort that if he turned out to be a pedophile I imagine he'd be preferential. He gets really excited to look at pics of my cousins young daughter. When she sends them to me I don't give them to him. The stuff it just so gross. I wish I could say it was dementia inappropriateness but it has always been there.
Mom had a day off today, he went to adh, and she was glad! Yes yes, and it was quiet all day long till he came home the moaning and yelling at the Tv pretty much starts five minutes after he gets in the door...whatever, she can deal with his BS now....
Happy Birthday to all our Capies out there...
I hope everyone is doing OK where ever they are. In what ever they are in....
was thinking , umm cant hug a lamp . i believe a bear would be good , its huggable , wipe tears on the bear , lamp sounds good also and more expesnive too , whatever u decide is fine with me ,
Wow how many posts tonight! Happy birthday Truecolors and Happy birthday Captain our Captain! I watched US weather on TV and I'm sorry for you who are getting the worst of it. Didn't Jojo live in the NY area? I read all your stories about evil siblings and ungrateful parents, and I am starting to think that we have to live with it! It is very unlikely that these situations will change. So, I guess, let's vent vent vent but without hope things get better! More or less, we are alone to fight with these messes, except from the help of some personal friends and the friends of this thread. Not very brilliant post, but my brain is as frozen as my body...
Memory Lamps are the newest way to celebrate someone's life"by giving the gift of everlasting light". It's a sympathy gift that has been popular around here for a couple of years. I can post a picture of one on Facebook an the group page.
what is a memory lamp ? bobbie , doent matter which ever u decided bear or angel im always happy with it , :-) pa s seems to calm down a bunch after moving him to living room . he sleepin like a baby now , poor guy .
