I'm tired of cooking/preparing 3 meals a day. It's just the two of us but boy oh boy can that woman eat!! She stays slimish, I get fattish. It's bad enough I do everything here much less start making her one thing and me the other. At times I feel guilty when I buy her fast food cuz of the nutritional value....not to mention I eat it too.
Grum grump grump grump grump
All those songs mentioned are soo much better than what dH is live streaming from the Coachella Music festival, as ths new dance is rocking back and forth-something persons in mental hospitals have been doing throughout history.
(No offense to others with this condition-sorry ) Empathetically incorrect, I know.
So sorry-and then to be on the other side of this.
I wish I could just move to a mountain top by myself for a couple of years. Just go into the woods and scream really loud. I
Show up for dinner! I am just sayin!
And, why did he leave potato peels in the sink overnight?
Thanks, Jessebelle! Sorry its difficult on you-the same.
ITS KICK CARE RECEIVER'S Butt DAY!
They deserve it, they have been asking for it, now it's time and for this day only-no one goes to jail! lol. Wait, has anyone seen Jude since the teacup?
Dh missed dinner, missed breakfast cause he left at 10 a.m. for church. As the consequences for him are adding up, he may soon need an intervention.
Church starts at 10.
What I wonder does it count as elder abuse when one elder leaves another to cook in the car???????????
I have 5 brothers including two which are steps and it is amazing to me that the steps seem more attentive to Mom sometimes because she cared for my stepdad and they know that was worth so much.
Any way, I have been busy with Mom and her I home care. The orthostatic hypotension has seemed to get worse not better, but today we are trying an experiment. When she was in the hospital, she had coffee with every meal and I never make her coffee and she doesn't ask for it. My husband will make her coffee when he makes his in the afternoon, but she doesn't ask so not being a coffee drinker I don't think about it. Anyway, today we are going to see if drinking coffee will make a difference.
As far as DH go, mine has been a major PITA. He has been injured and that makes him miserable but he makes himself more miserable by complaining and doing things that make his injury worse!
Good news for me, I lost ten pounds. I have been trying for about a month and have been just trying to eat healthier foods and snacks. It hasn't been miserable because I still eat treats if I really want to. Slow but steady wins the race.
Love you all. So sorry we all feel so pissed off!
Anger is what we are provoked to when we don't take charge early on.
It is so understandable, and many times justifiable.
I blame myself for not being able to find appropriate placement for dH so he can have a better supervised life.
The truth is, I am highly conflicted about separation and am emotionally attached.
We are going down the tubes together.
Thanks everyone!
Attitude is most of the battle won.
Gershun, will think of you positively next time I rant negatively! I am sensitive too!
My mother would sing that to me.
Re-read that post, just ignore it, doesn't make sense.
I try to let it out a little at a time, but this episode snuck up on me.
If I regularly empty my trash can (vent), then I am so much better able to cope, so you are correct, I could share a little more. I did identify with Susan when she posted she didn't want to whine because everyone else had so much going on.
Thanks again everyone for supporting me, each in your own way-that is why Dh actually got to eat, take his vitamins, and the we had coffee together. I am surprised he lived through it, but the minute I was reminded of the full moon, I took action. You all feel better too!
