Veronica...excellent idea! Most definitely need to have a few beers on hand for after the big haul on Tuesday. Mama will go to respite Monday, so I'll make sure she is all settled and then Tuesday brother and I will head to my house..it's over two hours away so we'll have lots of chat time...wonder what we'll chat about...all in all, we'll probably enjoy the ride down...the move will be tough..BUT after picking up those sofas and giant old pieces of furniture by myself...I think I'm up to it....I think afterwards I may be able to say...see? it wasn't as bad as you thought it would be....looking forward one evening to grilling a big rib eye and enjoying one or two of those beers.....I haven't had one in almost three years so I'll have to take it easy...lol...

Mom has been in the NH for a month now. I've been super depressed about it. I go visit and it takes her awhile to know who I am. And then with a hugh smile she knows my voice and is happy. She goes to sleep within the hour. I'm having a hard time adjusting to her not being in the apartment. I think I hear her in the night. It's all I can do not to go to the home and kidnap her. Then I remember she isn't the mom of my childhood nor is she the same woman of my fourties. She can't help me with my problems and she can't carry a conversation more than a few mins on a good day. She still loves me though. That makes my visit worth the trip and time. I feel like a 58 year old orpha and that's my whin for today. Yeah I'm selfish and want my parents back. Who loves ya like your parents?

SDsmile! so sorry for you i cant imagine how that is but mum may be in a home soon and im sick as i know shes getting worse not lost her memory just i can see no will to live in her and i know when this happens its not a good sign i pray to god she never ever forgets me and dies before this i really dont know if i could handle it? I lost my dad too before xmas and youre right when they are both gone its normal to feel like an orphan i know i am starting to feel this grief too!
I think the worst is coming then i go out and try and not think about it then home again and it hits!
I am worried about my siblings as ive tried to tell them that shes not going to be around forever but am wasting my time they just dont see it and as long as shes ok on the phone they just think im being dramatic i dont want to scream panic as mum is eating and watching tv shuffling around ITS her i see her will is just not there anymore she dosnt want to do anything dosnt talk just eats and watches tv so sad so cruel a disease ive lost her awhile ago but this is getting worse its not her bad hearing anymore shes not registering what im saying break your heart!
Hugs to you its so hard!

kazzaa, aren't cats a lot of fun :) I have a strange one that does come when you call, he will whine and whine as he walks through the neighbor's yards until he gets to my door. You'd think he had been lost for months with all his crying.

Now, why can't he ring the doorbell when he wants in like my other cat does. It's fun being on the phone and the caller hears the bell, I just say "oh wait a minute, the cat wants in". Say what???

meh.. big old muscular fellow but the amazonian sob looks like he could drink milk out of a 5 gallon crock and look straight at ya around both sides of it .
if he could build you a trike out of the existing scrap steel pile then id be intimidated . ditto if he had the finesse to torque a bolt at 170 foot pounds in one movement and squeak one down to 6 inch pounds
in the next ..
giving credit where its due tho he probably dont need a bumper jack to change a car tire .. see im harsh but fair ..

Big Grrr here... All I did was write DFTT on a post and it got erased! I was trying to be nice by not writing what I really wanted to say.. Next time I'm going to "say how I really feel"..

If this crap continues I'll have to seriously rethink the usefulness of this site...

Agree Assandashe7 and shared your reaction to this poster but did just manage to keep my fingers off the keyboard
Maybe they invented a new version of DFTT perhaps the F had a different meaning. My whine is that stuff vanishes in mid post so I can't blame the mods for that. However my email notifications are non existant and someone is stealing my hugs again

Capt get a can of spray foam and when they are out for the night fill that old hole right up. works like a dream.

Cap, I have answered many a bat call, and I find two things 99% of the time. First, the house has a ceiling fan. Bats love ceiling fans. Second, I find a window air conditioner, without the foam strip inserted between the windows. That half inch gap lets in lots of bugs and bats. If the bat is hiding, I just turn one ceiling fan on. The bat comes out and glides around the fan on the air currents. Here in NY a bat in a house is usually tested for rabies. If it tests positive, you get free rabies shots (OH JOY), a series of 5 in the arms or butt.

Captain, you remind me of "Red Green". It's an old Canadian comedy show. Red could make a kiddie ride from a bar stool attached to the agitator of a washing machine.... a hybrid car from recycled golf carts and satellite dishes.... and duct tape always was the fastener of choice :)

She swims in the pool with me, sleeps with me, sits by me and has smothered me with wet slobbery kisses :D She's an Amercian Staffordshire mix so she's got that big box head....like bowling ball big!! We are still working on "we don't eat the kitty cat"... so far so good as they now can exist in the same room without drawing blood... usually MY BLOOD trying to break em up :)) almost a big happy family... gosh.... am I one of those dog parent's that can go on and on about their dog?

We had sweetheart of a Lab/Rottie mix, 100+ pounds, who passed away almost 3 years ago now -- wow, has it been 3 years already? And we waited a little over a year before downsizing to our 30+ pound Corie/Jack Russell Terrier mix. She's a pistol, lol!

I'm totally confused...which is not difficult these days. Initially I was told that I needed to make sure I sent Mama's meds with her but other than that they would handle everything...ok...got it.....then I called today to just confirm everything and we're all set...just send her meds and that's it.....now they call and tell me to be sure to pack her diapers, lotions, bathing stuff, powders, favorite items, and also her gowns...and they weren't sure but I might have to do her laundry...pardon my French but how in the $$$$ is this a break??? **** it would be easier for her to stay home with me...except that I need her to be there when I go get my stuff....If I'm going to have to run back and forth and do her laundry I will let them keep her through my moving of the furniture then just bring her home...so upset and disappointed at the moment.

Looloo, Kazzaa, I met Clive Owen in the Majestic Wine Warehouse in Muswell Hill. I asked him if he could get his shopping trolley out of the way, please.

Oh well. I expect he gets fed up with middle-aged ladies drooling over him.
