I actually have to go do some vaccuming and swiffering. I'll be back lurking later. My DH works evenings. This is a great opportunity to get things done.

DISing is more fun though...

Ours took about the same.

How is your basement? No more flooding I hope.

Well now my nephews are on the phone doing the macarana dance since that is the only dance they know to celebrate 2 months...now they are all doing stupid things like one kid talking in Spanish and the other replying in Chinese and then someone is doing the pledge of allegance in French.

Hi Robin
Are you parents in a nursing home, in the same town in which you live, so that they can see them often??

The next town over, not too far. Trust me... I would love to see them often, but when they're in a sundowner, they treat you like crap or they don't know you. You just don't know what they are going to be like when you get there.

Last week Mike & I had a real nice visit and they were sooo happy to see us. We went Saturday and Dad was coming off of a sundowner, (he hallucinates and thinks everyone is out to get him). Mom just cried and said she wants to go home. She said she'd walk if she has to.

Needless to say, we only stayed for about 20 min. No sense in sticking around if you're just going to take a beating.

We're getting accustomed to it and accept it.

Where is the menu of the day. I want to order my meal.

 

[Dyerneeds]

Sorry Robin.

I was typing and didn't realize it had gone over to a new page.

No problem... I think I'll live.

 

[MinnMick01]

Well now that it took me an hour to catch up I am off to get dinner dished up. I will check back in after dinner.

 

[MomsOf2boys]

Well I am leaving for the night... Post away... I'll need to read something tomorrow...

Sweet Disney Dreams Everyone!!!

That is such a sad thing. A sundowner, does that have to do w/the medication or just the disease??

 

[millerpjm]

Ok... let me see what else I can type about. Board games. Yes, that's it.

What board game do you love?

What board game do you hate?

Love - Railroad Tycoon (anyone heard of it?)
Hate - Monopoly

Broccoli or Brussel Sprouts?

Broccoli, definitely

Isn't there a walking trail on the ship? Do you know the distance of it?

Yes, I want to say 3 times around is a mile, but don't quote me on it...

What did you eat for dinner?

Cheeseburger macaroni skillet and french bread....


Congratulate me on my first multi-quote...I'm not PC illiterate, just a message board novice...

It's the disease. He doesn't know any of us when it happens. At the nursing home, they just leave him alone when he's like that. He just paces.

It's sad though. One time he thought 6 guys were coming to get him. That happened at home. He kept running around the house yelling. We had to call an ambulance and the sheriff. That has to be terrifying for him to actually believe that is happening.

 

[millerpjm]

Ours took about the same.

How is your basement? No more flooding I hope.

Thankfully, no new water in the basement when I got home from work Hopefully, it will stay that way!

A lot of people in our area had water in their basements...just so much rain...

Congrats Jen.

 

[Dyerneeds]

Shower time, (just finished excercising)

Be back at 10PM

Later,

Robin

 

[millerpjm]

Congrats Jen.

However I missed out on the FO...

 

[Morsel]

You are absolutely correct. That's why Iam back. The real problem is OCD. Iam sure no one else on the boards is afflicted.
