Well, you've read the notes, the notes were dressed and final, and now it is time for you to post until the dressed and final cows come home.

Gratuitous Post #1!!

Well, I need to go to sleep. I literally can barely keep my eyes open. I hope I can sleep well enough with this cold that I have. I do have some nighttime Dimetapp, so hopefully it'll help.

Have a good day, all!

And the word of the day is: SNARF!

I got a call and that's why it wasn't locked.

I didn't sleep well. I was up and down too many times: 11:00pm, 1:45am, 2:30am, 4:30a, and then 5:30. Some were bathroom breaks and some were to simply get up, stretch, work my legs to work out the kinks and ease the pain.

This morning I've got physical therapy. I was convinced they would turn me down, so I'm quite happy.

Mom will allow some day help, but she doesn’t like strangers in her home. She’s too busy watching them to have any peace.

I read an article yesterday on Facebook that cats bond with their owners in the same way that children bond with parents. Hell, I could have told them that!

At the moment my oldest daughter is hanging over me, trying to decide if an oatmeal raisin cookie is edible, and my youngest daughter is indulging in excessive romping and frolicking with her brother Thatch. I just found my sweatshirt dragged from my bed to the kitchen.

That was my mom too, we had several through an agency and then she met 2 she really liked. We approached them both about coming to work directly for us. One of them had just accepted a position with another family and the other agreed.

They are both still friendly with my mom and she gets together with them all the time now for lunches and visits.

George I watched my Dad and his mom both slowly disappear from Alzheimer’s...

I am terrified that I may have inherited the gene.

Given my druthers I would choose to get cancer again and let my body fail me rather than to lose my mind

vixmom · « **Reply #17 on:** December 04, 2019, 05:06:17 AM »

Well that was cheery

Temps in the 40's today, so we're doing all right.

Ha! MR BK please be sure to tell Mitzi McCall that she has a fan especially for her scene with Jay Sayers in WAR OF THE SATELLITES... most excellent and entertaining.

An excellent review, DR Jrand69.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #26 on:** December 04, 2019, 06:51:41 AM »

Damn it all to HELL, I neglected to mention Broderick Crawford in my own review.

Did you get a chance to listen to the commentary with Marshall Harvey? I’m one of the people whose machines won’t play that version so I still have that to look forward to.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #27 on:** December 04, 2019, 06:53:17 AM »

A wonderful remembrance of Shelley Morrison in the notes.

A sucess story.. Everyone should be that pleased.

My aunt had 2 shifts a people. She moved to a smaller bedroom and left the caregivers in the larger bedroom with my uncle. Yes it was difficult to have people there all of the time but the caregivers were great. My aunt's only complaint was it was hard thinking about what to feed everyone.

I can understand that. My sister accused me of not caring about my father because I didn't want her doing certain medical tests or treatments on him. I felt they were not worth the price as each time his dementia got worse.
