Kids today miss out on so much fun.
Now they can’t even look forward to
“snow days”, they just virtual learn as many are already doing.4 -

Or even sick days. Now when my kids stay home sick they’re still expected to log in and do their work.
Keeps them from faking it though 😁4 -

People who live by themselves and really shouldn't be.:( My neighbor is turning 88 this weekend. He called me at 4 this a.m., panic stricken because his furnace stopped working, he was so cold, was sooo confused, he can't see hardly anything and couldn't find the furnace repairman's number. We finally found it, and the guy came around 5:30. My neighbor refuses to go into any nursing home or anywhere else. It's up to his 2 dds to take care of him but they both live about 1.5 away and can't just drop everything to be there. He worries me terribly.
Plus his home is like a maze, between all his furniture and stuff he has. It's not a safe situation for him to be in. Whaddya do with someone who refuses to move yet clearly shouldn't be by themselves. 6 -

The DDs and dad could have a chat about home care services. It needn't be as "drastic" as a nurse for personal support worker being there 24/7 but could be as simple as someone checking in once a day for an hour, a couple of times each week.
As privatized as this portion of the healthcare sector can be, an agreeable arrangement could be in place by next week if they get free consultations lined up this week.
But all that still may not mitigate situations like you experienced with your neighbor 🤷🏿♀️
Glad you were there for him and he felt comfortable to approach you cuz that could have been a dangerous situation!

His dd is coming this p.m. and he has a dr. appt. this week so I left her a note, asking that very same thing. I can see a problem with anyone coming into his home though. He is THE most unfiltered cantankerous old fart you'd ever want to meet.People who live by themselves and really shouldn't be.:( My neighbor is turning 88 this weekend.

Glad you were there for him and he felt comfortable to approach you cuz that could have been a dangerous situation! Not many people are going to be agreeable to going into his home. And I don't mind helping out in circumstances like this and other ways but don't want to make any commitment because I could see issues developing.
Life is such a trip sometimes.
Thank you @MaltedTea

Day 3 of self-isolation. I feel like I'm going crazy within these 4 walls. From someone who is constantly doing something to doing nothing at all is making me feel useless. The worst part for me is not being able to do my mommy duties 😢9

I realized I've only had cheese sauce with generic tortilla round chips, you know those huge gallon bags that your loud auntie brings to every single potluck with her crock-pot of liquid gold asking belligerently "where can I plug this in at!?"which is correct:

As I may be too late to contribute to the Bangs For Fellow Fiveheads support, all I can do to help improve the world is add...which is correct:
nachos with shredded cheese
or nachos with cheese sauce
...if the package for the sauce says "processed cheese food" then please abort.
This term scared me as a child. Why do you need to explicitly state that it's "food?"2 -
