Okay.....
Today at the assisted living place they put two tables together because someone's brother was there and wanted he and his sister to sit with Elvira and Cathy and Dad. Dorothy has Altheimers. Cathy has Altheimers. Dad and Elvira have dementia. Blain (the brother of Dorothy and is about 75) was the only other sane person at the table. AND, OMG ( Read more... ) -
Please ladies, use lotion!!
I'm really really lucky, my face is very young looking, which is a combination of good genes and oily skin which is less prone to wrinkles. So this is not about your face. Your face is different from my face and you need to do what you need to do to deal with it ( Read more... ) -
Holiday meals
Tomorrow I'll get 2 meals actually, I'm going up to the nursing home at noon to have Thanksgiving there with him, and then later on my friend Allen will be delivering me a bunch of food too! Which means I get my favorite part of all, the leftovers. Killer cornbread dressing, turkey and of course collard greens ( Read more... ) -

You took exception to WHAT???
It is the beginning of Ramadan, a very spiritual time for Muslims. Although I am not a Muslim, I know quite a few people who are, and today I wished someone a blessed Ramadan to them and theirs over on Flakebook.

And now I can't ( Read more... ) -
Open season on humans!
At least for the crows. It's that time of year again, the crows have young that are starting to fly and boy oh boy are the parents vigilant. I've been divebombed 4 times so far this week going to or from work or walking during lunch. One was a fly by, didn't come too close, one just barely brushed the top of my head with a wing or tail, and the ( Read more... ) -
Nice day
Allen came over this morning bearing Mexican CocaCola (the stuff with real sugar not hfcs) and turkey sausages. He had to work today so we only hung out for a about a half hour or so. Then, since it was nice and sunny and warm I went to the University District street fair. Found a really cool little locally made purse to give Chris for her BD, ( Read more... ) -
boring
OK, this was day two of home from work because of snow and I'm sick of it. I have toddled up to 7-11 and the coffee shop with my nice rubber boots with the polka dots and groovy treads, along with my cane gizmo with the teeth on it, so it's not like I've been trapped in here nonstop, but still, after one day I was ready to go back to work. They' ( Read more... )
