    i heard fr dont put thru messages any more like all are blank even if u type in “♥️♥️😍😍 🍆 🍑 💦😏” they dont see nothing

    Well this explains why some people have been accepting my friend requests.

    The fact that folks (read: strangers) still don’t send a message with their FR reinforces my lack of faith in mankind

    I sent you a cutsey one!
    ...apparently, maybe lost in mfp purgatory?...heard they aren't coming through lately...meant to send you a message to make me less creepy?!

    ...but you know, the effort and stuff!

    Anyhow - on another note - anyone who gets an accept these days should be flattered!
    ...or worried they are not special at all?!

    My dad.

    Had to admit him to the hospital again post-op. Post-release transition plan is to be a skilled nursing facility.

    He doesn't know yet and it will be a struggle for him to accept with his dementia.

    One of the hardest things to do knowing the transition will end up likely in permanent residency for his own good.

    Hate the thought of him ever feeling alone and the restrictions these facilities are putting on visitation is only going to make that worse.

    My thoughts go out to you and your family. Something like that is never easy. Also, it's so hard to watch someone go from being a strong healthy parent to being child-like. So much grieving is done along the way, at every stage of loss. :(

    So sorry Chris. I lost my Grandad to dementia last year and it was so hard seeing him go from a lively independent man to someone who didn't recognise his own family.

    Your dad is so lucky to have you and your family there to support him. Keeping you all in my thoughts.

    This is such a painful thought. Dementia is uniquely cruel for the affected one and family alike. I am so sorry.

    Not to make light of these situations...but i have to laugh when my grandmother keeps telling me how much she loves my ex, and when will he come visit, sometimes she honestly forgets (alzheimers) ...sometimes she just wants to remind me she thinks I made a mistake 😬

    And collecting $5 baby dolls is her new hobby lol.

    My grandma had Alzheimer’s too and she was honestly adorable. She made my dad a bit uncomfy though because she flirted with him relentlessly. She thought he was my Grandpa. My poor dad, he was so sweet about it but it was heartbreaking too.

    It’s 2pm EST when...!!!

    “Hey dad I think I wanna play football this year”

    “Okay but have you considered...”

    “I already emailed the coach, he said they could use me right away”

    “Alright but...”

    “Practice is at 3:30”

    “Well...”

    “...and I need cleats”

    I feel like “what to expect when you’re expecting” was missing some very important chapters. Anyway, got him there and all that jazz, but still

    Good man 🙌🏼

    This is a bit premature but I may not be able to post it tomorrow morning.

    Thanks to all of the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, cub scouts, LE officers, fire fighters, and everyone else on the overpasses up in NOVA, and I assume in other areas of the country, who every year show their appreciation for those heading up towards DC for work on 9/11. We appreciate you.

    Thanks, he just had a birthday and actually used a gift card to buy them himself--I just took him to buy them before practice. He only wants to do it to get some conditioning in for wrestling season, heh

    Nice! My son bought his own. He said they were “cheap”. Probably compared to basketball shoes. 🙄 My son only does cross country to build stamina for basketball.
