Good morning ladies:
Had not realized the length of my disappearance so will definitely not be catching up on all comments. Since I last checked in, my brother now has a definite Alzheimer's diagnosis.We spent a night in the emergency room with him a few weeks ago (at my disappearance time). He was completely delusional-people were trying to kill him, etc. He was shouting to God asking for forgiveness and many other things. It was sad watching his pain. This past week they started him on seroquel. He slept three nights straight, the fourth night he again heard the voices and was manic for over 25 hours. Last I heard last night he was sleeping. Everyone coming to my house tonight for pizza. Will get SIL out of house for a bit and see how he does in different environment. Oldest brother is in from out of state. My YS and DIL are bringing baby over to meet her great uncles.
And speaking of my youngest grandchild-I babysat her four days Memorial Day weekend (Thursday through Sunday).I arrive and they tell me she had a fever earlier but went to the doctor and they believe some viral ear thing. No temp when I arrive. Doctor has a script on hold at drug store if needed. Off go Mom and Dad to Maryland. She ran no fever over the weekend, was a tough fussy by nothing bad. Kept to her sleep schedule. Ate a lot (right at 6 month mark so growth spurt. They need to get her on solids! But we had a good time playing, watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, exercising, etc. By time Mom and Dad return Sunday night I am staying there until Monday am. My through is getting scratchy by they point. Monday morning upon awakening no doubt I caught something. Went to Urgent Care Tuesday-they said some viral thing gave m nasal spray and cough pearls. Worked from home. Went in to office Wednesday and to a meeting-made it through the day somehow. Wednesday nigh had horrific body aches-was running fever by now. Friday morning back to Urgent Care-got antibiotic and steroids to help with cough. Feeling much closer to human now. And Luna, of course, was completely over whatever she gave me long ago!
Flea-I do seem to recall you receiving some very good news! How exciting.
Allie-twin girls sounds exciting. From the one picture it looks like Carmine paid a visit to Miles.
Annie and Beth-the memory issues are real and scary. SIL wants to keep brother home as long as possible-not because of money, etc. (they don't have any) but because she views it as to what you do for family.
Terri-glad you sorted out all of your tech issues.
Heather-glad surgery went well. No doubt a bit more pain to experience but I found it a different type of pain and it doesn't last-small steps!
Pip-I get it sometimes the being overlooked can get to you. But you have a pretty good family on here! Welcome to my side of older age!
ok-missed so much I apologize but with the way the last couple of weeks have been it was good to have you ladies to come back to. Oh-and somewhere in there I put a hold on a condo unit at the complex I want to move to. It is on the walking path and has direct access to fishing pond. Going over to check it out in a couple of weeks. It won't be ready until end of year so good timing. My brother's rapid changes has made me realize I want to make more memories with my family-not my work.
Need to get house ready for guests. Will check on Kylia here in a bit,
Take care all,
Ginny in Ohio
I am lucky to have you guys4 -

Just too chaotic. I think your bins could be just the thing, but you're right you'd need them to sit on a surface. My daughter has something similar but quite a bit larger for her kids' toys, so they can find what they want reasonably easily. Once you have the bins, there's all the fun of deciding whether to store them by color or by type or both. I was heartbroken when my labelmaker went kaput. I may have to buy another one--but for now, I'm making do with labels printed on my inkjet. Not the same at all...I may not be diagnosed as neurodivergent, but I have a feeling there's a strong streak of it in my makeup.
I get it!
It's driving me a bit crazy that I've got pens in all sorts of different containers around my chair now. In the new place, I want something more uniform and neat.

Lisa: Those drawer cabinets are so useful, and they keep everything tidy and out of sight.
Heather: Just keep taking those forward steps.
Ginny: Good to see you posting again. (((Hugs))) for your brother. Sorry that Luna was a tad too generous 😝
Had an active rest day. Decided against the Sea Festival. Wasn’t in the mood for crowds of people. Nice family Skype was just the ticket.

Happy June, Friends.
Barbie: Thanks for getting us setting the table for our monthly chats.
Heather: Hope you feel better and better everyday.
Sue: So sorry for your sister and her family. Hoping she finds excellent caregiving.
I just finished writing an eulogy for my BFF and sent it to her hubby. It was a gut wrenching exercise for me as my writing "muscle" is terribly anemic and the memories were making me tear up. Hopefully, he will approve and will find a good reader to deliver it at the Celebration of Life on June 22nd. I have a conflict and can't be there in person.
June fun on the schedule includes a trip to Los Angeles this coming weekend for my 50th High School reunion. There is a no host cocktail party at a restaurant on Friday, then a catered backyard dinner at one classmate's home. There were 65 in my graduating class from a Catholic all-girl school. It looks like 20+ will be turning up. Excited. I also will visit with a man I dated in my 20's. He is happily married, but we have been corresponding on FB and reconnecting over his vast knowledge of music and incredible memory of our past exploits. I like his wife very much and hope she will join us for lunch.
Time flies! Stay well, friends. We can do this.

Ugh, I feel like a drama queen. I swear, we are usually a low drama - super healthy family, but this is a weird time. My 17 year old just informed me that he gets a weird feeling in his heart sometimes, that makes his left arm feel weird. I think he had covid about 3 months ago. The oldest tested positive but he didn’t. However, they were sick at the same time and the tests are not reliable anymore anyway. If the say “yes” then you know it’s true, but if they say “no”, then it’s a crap shoot. Honestly, we were just taking them for fun because we were going to follow the same health and safety protocols anyway.
One of the stupid side effects for boy in that age range is a short term effect on the heart. So, I’m a little worried and I have to try and get a doctors appointment first thing in the morning. I’m going to do a couple hours of work tonight and go in to work super early. I’ll also let my boss know that I may need to jet out to a doctor’s appointment at the drop of a hat. I tried to get one online, and his doctor has no appointment until August.
The other piece is that his PT found that he has weird muscle issues where his brain loses connectivity with his muscles and the one he is using just starts shaking instead of working. And the heart is a muscle. So is that related? Who freaking knows - hence a doctor. But it isn’t very fun being me right now, downplaying everything and staying calm so that he isn’t worried.
Anyhoo - I’m only writing about it here- I’m not sharing with anyone else other than my husband because I don’t want to answer a bunch of questions and deal with other people’s worries.
This is so dumb.
***************
@skuehn48 - I’m so sorry about your sister’s circumstances. That must be really hard for you to manage. There are some really great care homes out there, but if she is afraid is that afraid of them, she won’t be able to see that.
@cityjaneLondon - So glad your pain has turned the corner!
@grandmallie - Love the picnic table! Littles love a place there size that is like the adults. It must be strange to exist in a world where nothing is your size. Your lawn is amazing as well. I am trying to get clover in mine, but the wild rabbits keep eating it.
@pipcd34 - car shows are the best! I love the hot rods. The car from your year is super cute too!

Good to see you, Evie, Rori. Hope your first night home is restful and healing, Heather!
The weekend's drawing to a close... Did a little flit to the stores this afternoon.
Really wanted to replace some older, tattered lilies that kept hanging in there in one of the beds up front, and found blueberry bushes at Lowes - but of the pink lemonade variety. Won't bear this year, but possibly next if I can get them rooted and healthy before the heat of summer. My mulberry tree for last year's birthday didn't come back after the winter, though we tried everything we could think of... It just persisted in doing its best imitation of a dead stick until we finally believed it. Maybe the blueberries will like it better. Hope so.
Also found some lovely pink vincas. I have the purple ones all along most of my fence lines now, because they only get about a foot high, and make great ground cover. They love the shade - but supposedly this kind likes the sunshine, which it will have to in that front bed - it gets about 12 or more hours of sun a day in the full summer. Hopefully they'll make it.
That was the excitement for the day. We'll have the brother-in-law and our son and his DSO on Father's Day for lunch, but I'm pretty peopled out for now. Glad that's two weeks away!
Hope it's a good week for everyone.
Cheers, y'all,
Love,
Lisa in AR4 -
Numerica - so sorry about the worries about your son. It's good that he could tell you. Nothing is worse than having to worry about loved ones.
My son and DDIL fly back late today. They had an AMAZING time, according to DDIL. Edie has insisted that the other grandparents take them back to the house today, because she is going to make a cake for her father's birthday, which is today. ( the cycling trip was a special treat for his 45th)
Ginny - I hear you with the germy kids. I wore a K95 mask while mine were here, but I do have the beginnings of a scratchy throat. I will monitor it.
Writing this in the middle of the night. Slept for 3 hours. I have just taken some paracetamol, and will head for the toilet. I'm sure I will wake John up in the next room, because I have to clatter around with crutches and use doorknobs to pull myself up etc.
The big difference between now and before the operation, is that the hip is not hurting at rest now.
Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx6 -
Pip - love those bunnies and all of the neat improvements you and Kirby have made at your place. I think you should be featured in "Sunset" Magazine. And by the way, we're darn lucky to have YOU and your boot!
Heather - so very happy to hear your hip is not hurting at rest now. Glad you are home.
Jenn - hope you can get your son in to the doc quickly and crossing fingers his symptoms are no cause for alarm.
Lisa - Pink lemonade blueberries are delicious. Hope your bush makes it through the summer and gives you a nice crop next year!
The rain and wind continue. It was a good day today.

got home a few hours ago- cooked dinner for dh, now trying to catch up on emails and MFP.
Had a good weekend. A LOT of work, especially today-5hrs straight of planting and setting up the water lines.
Had the talk with mom about the property- she hasn't completely decided how it will be divided or not. I will be executor and she knows how much I want to keep the property and will do what ever I to keep it. She also knows my sisters will both sell it as soon as they can. One sister actually asked for hers years ago(that did NOT set well with my dad). We had a good talk. It would have been better if the room mate wasnt there.
Going to try and catch up on all the posts.
Hope everyone had a great weekend.

Heather - I hope the pain subsides soon and you are able to sleep for longer periods. It’s good that it’s not as painful at rest.
Barbie - I don’t find jeans comfortable at all anymore, maybe I just need to find the right ones.
Ginny - so sorry about your brother.
Lisa - I am the builder of all things that comes with bits and pieces. DH will build from scratch but not those. I love those drawers, I would probably have to put some organizers in some of them, but they would work well for some of my craft supplies.
Machka - that’s a lot of work.
Lisa and Machka- funny you both think you’re neurodivergent and have completely different ideas of organizing. I think I have some tendencies too, but my daughter was diagnosed. For years I tried to help her organize and would go for bins and baskets that hide the stuff, like Lisa’s drawers. Apparently her ADHD requires things to be more open like Machka’s bins. Since she has learned this it has helped her more.
Pip - it’s nice when you can see the potential of something. You have a great talent for it.
Rori - Biggest hugs to you.
I had a quiet day today. Did a bit of scrapbooking, started watching a new Netflix limited series. Maid. Still not sure what I think of it and I’m on episode 4. There are only 10 episodes so I’ll probably keep at it.
I talked to my SIL and brother today. Yesterday, I saw her make a comment on a FB group we both follow. In it she stated that she is no longer working because of her cerebral palsy.
I called to check in with and found out that she hasn’t worked since December. She has been falling more regularly and they are concerned that she has also developed osteoporosis. It is common with cerebral palsy she says. She is waiting for an MRI to see if she needs a surgery or not.
She said none of this is unexpected, but she was hoping it would wait for another decade or so. She just turned 53 in May.
I was a little upset that I hadn’t been told before, I’ve talked to them 3 or 4 times since Christmas.
I tried to call Rodger’s mom but didn’t get an answer. It ticks me off that she never calls me back, especially since we pay for the phone for her.
I then talked to Cheryle this evening. I miss her so much.
The Oilers are going to the Stanley Cup Playoffs. It will be exciting being here for that. They haven’t made it this far since we have lived here.

I'm with you! I have a couple pair of jeans that sort of fit, and I can wear them for work, but they definitely aren't the sort of things I would lounge around the house in. Definitely not that comfortable.
I actually don't find pants in general that comfortable.Snowflake1968 wrote: »Machka - that’s a lot of work.
So I'm discovering! One more wall to wash, but there are a lot of windows so it shouldn't be too bad.
There are cobwebs at the top of the walls because there are always cobwebs at the top of walls in Australia, plus the place sat empty for a few months. So I want to get all that off.
There are scuffs and things on the lower part of the walls from 10 years of furniture. So I'm scrubbing all those marks off.
My arms are out of shape.Snowflake1968 wrote: »Lisa and Machka- funny you both think you’re neurodivergent and have completely different ideas of organizing.

Apparently her ADHD requires things to be more open like Machka’s bins. Since she has learned this it has helped her more.
I would much prefer everything to be "hidden" and that is the goal for my new home office - everything filed away neatly.
But when it comes to these pens, I use them just about every evening, and so I want them accessible and neatly organised by colour and style. Right now, I've got several different containers of them all over the place near my chair and that doesn't work for me.
Interestingly, my husband does not like stuff to be closed away. He likes it spread out all around him. I've known he doesn't like things tucked away in drawers, so I tried open baskets. Nope, that didn't work. The basket ended up in the office. Then I tried trays to see if he'd go for them, and he did for a little while but it wasn't long before I discovered the tray in the office. So I'm not sure what, if anything will work.Snowflake1968 wrote: »The Oilers are going to the Stanley Cup Playoffs. It will be exciting being here for that.

I remember the Oilers from way back when!

Good morning, my chickens, from the dark reaches of the Arkansas River Valley--again, because it's dark, not because of anything foreboding...
The three major weather sites all show something different, so a one in three chance of rain, as far as I'm concerned. I have to drive into town at 10 a.m. to have an X-ray done, and while I don't mind driving in the rain, I have little trust for other people that are in a hurry.
Laundry's going, dishes going as soon as I'm finished with my coffee, and then set up my meds for the week and get my yoga done before I head into town. I know I won't do it after. Too many other things to do!
Jenn - NOT dumb, and well worth checking. Your own peace of mind and that of your husband and son are worth whatever it takes to find out. While we all hope very much that it is nothing serious, if it is, you'll be catching it early, raising your chance of a very good resolution.
Heather - No pain while resting is HUGE! Being woken up by pain is so exhausting. You'll be running around the house like a bunny rabbit in no time.
Pip - Speaking of bunny rabbits - I like yours; they fit right into your overall decor. I love bringing something back from neglect and age like that.
Tracey - I picked up drawer organizers while I was out yesterday! I'll be getting those sorted out today. I'm also trying to figure out if another one or two of the chests can fit into the budget and help get rid of some of the sewing boxes - they don't lend themselves as well to small flat spaces. The chests are making me very happy. I've always believed the research that all the forms of neurodivergence exist on a spectrum, and that the term can encompass a mélange of different traits. Machka's bins would not suit me at all unless they were behind doors! My brain doesn't seem to work like most people I know in person either, even in my own family. However I do find that there are definitely types that come to this group and stay with us that have similar ranges of traits.
Onward and upward... Stuff to do, people to see places to be!
Oh, I forgot--the reason I haven't posted my weight is that I'm slowly gaining, but I'm not unhappy about it. I think it means the Skyrizi is actually helping my body fully absorb the nutrition I'm putting in it! I knew, if a drug ever finally worked, I'd have to start watching my intake again. I have to think about what I want the goal to be now that I may not be able to maintain 150 pounds while eating 3,000 calories a day...
Hope it's a good day,
Love from Arkansas,
Lisa

Good morning ladies!
Jenn you must be so worried about your son's heart. Hope it turns out to be minor.
Beth and Ginny we are keeping Dad at home for as long as we can. But it's hard because he doesn't trust me. Even on a stupid issue like where is the trash bin, he doesn't believe I know. It's insulting, but usually not dangerous.
In a home, he would be locked up. I toured the closest one, and it was way too expensive. So we will carry on for a bit. Neither path is perfect.
I'm excited. I bought more murder mystery books. Yay! I spend a lot of time in my chair monitoring my dad, usually with a book. I read a Laura Griffin last night. Next up is a Sue Grafton.
Have a wonderful day! May you all be happy, healthy, safe and free!

Weird night last night ...
First of all, normally, I go to sleep relatively quickly (not as quickly as I did a few years ago, but within the first half hour of lying down) and I usually sleep through the night except for 1-3 bathroom breaks.
But last night ...
I was starting to feel sore last evening from all the wall washing, but went to bed as normal, feeling quite tired ... then struggled to fall asleep. <<sigh>> Just couldn't get comfortable plus my restless leg thing was driving me crazy.
Eventually, I must have dozed off, but woke about 3:30 am feeling really hot and even more uncomfortable. At some point, I got up to turn the heat down and returned to bed but couldn't sleep again.
However, I attended a wellness webinar last week that mentioned the importance of spending at least 6 hours in the dark (preferably as dark as possible) during our "sleep" time, even if we can't sleep, for the benefit of our circadian rhythms. So I figured I would at least lie down and close my eyes in the dark.
In the next bit of time, I know I did a lot of tossing and turning, and had some very vivid dreams, so I must have fallen asleep.
When my husband woke me in the morning ... my phone and book were on the floor and I felt like absolute rubbish. When I stepped into the bathroom, the shade was up which was odd because I remembered pulling it down. And my towels under that window had been moved. Then I had this really weird feeling like perhaps I slept walked. I have no proof, just a feeling like I might have been wandering around in my sleep ... or at least, that I walked into the bathroom and raised the shade, maybe like I was getting ready for my day in my sleep? And apparently I knocked everything onto the floor in the process.
I have slept-walked (sleepwalked?) before, but not for a long, long time ... to my knowledge.
I've felt completely discombobulated all day today. And very stiff and sore.
On the bus trip home, I fell asleep as usual, and woke up not long before my stop. As I got off the bus, I thought, "Oh dear, I slept through the point where I send my husband a text", so I checked my phone and I had sent the text. But I have no memory of doing so.
I laid on the sofa and dozed a bit this evening and am feeling more like myself.
Maybe I was just over-tired and over-sore. But what a weird feeling all day.

Tracey ... I don't find Jeans all that comfortable either but I wear them anyways. They keep overeating in check! I live in Buffalo and follow the Sabres hockey team. Since they didn't make it to the playoffs, we were rooting for NY Rangers and now that they're out of play we were rooting for the Oilers (Lost to Dallas during a Stanley Cup Finals years ago). Go Oilers!!
Annie ... no two paths are the same when it comes to elder care or dementia. Remember, your Dad is saying and doing things through his dementia ... as hard as it is, don't take insult at the things he says or does. His understanding and reality are not reasonable anymore.
My mom slid out of her wheelchair at the rehab facility yesterday afternoon. Sigh. She told my husband and I she fell but couldn't form her thoughts to give details. When I found her aide, he said he knew nothing about it and by law I would have been notified if she fell. Five hours later, the facility called and, yes, she did slide out of her wheelchair and someone visiting her roommate reported it. Staff put her back in her chair, examined her and she is ok. This event, along with others however, means that she will not return to assisted living, nor memory care at an assisted living facility. She requires long-term care. Not sure who is going to take her, but I will be emptying her assisted living apartment this week. We've been paying $270 a day while she has not been there! Time to stop that financial bleed.

@Pip, I noticed succulents in a container beside your bunnies. Do you keep them year round or get new in the Spring? If you keep them, where do you keep them each Winter? Just curious…. I love your edgings and plants. I miss that while living in this RV. DH and I are talking about selling the RV and moving to a rental or rent to buy house. The search begins!

Rebecca, don’t know about cranberry jelly, but cranberry sauce thaws just fine!
Beth I find your implant journey fascinating! Thanks for sharing the journey and so excited that you are starting to hear real sounds!
Heather, thanks to you for sharing your hip surgery story. I’m hoping to never need it, but it’s good to hear about the journey from someone who has first hand experience. Right now my take away from it is that I need to be in the best possible condition before I need it, I’m assuming it will make your recovery much easier.
Allie, so nice to see Carmine interacting with Miles!
I’m sure there are more posts that I wanted to comment on but, as usual, the memory fails. Congrats to those celebrating, hugs for those who need them (extra hugs for those of you who have recently suffered losses) and welcome to the new gals!
It’s a rainy day here, but my friend and I managed to do our full walk anyway. The rain didn’t start getting bad til we were at our turn around spot so we did have to finish, lol. Ah well, we both had good rain jackets so all was well.
Evelyn, Vancouver Island
It all was glorious, the mashed potatoes tasted like sweet potatoes, and the green beans well they tasted like sweet potatoes too.😂😂. I finished my two slices of cranberry jelly, so now my innards will be happy.
Its a blustery, cool day on the island today. Husband went to the gym early so the car can't be a sitting target by the house under the grove of tree matter falling.
I had a rough night, getting a cold. Wet cough, took meds at 2 am and sprayed throat so as least I could sleep. Will faithful take cold medicine and kick this thing.
I have a chicken I need to simmer, but the chicken stock should make me feel better. I will make it extra cold killing spicy!
Hugs ladies!

Jenn ~ Good thoughts and prayers for your son! Hope you get a dr. appt. soon.
Machka ~ It was interesting how you compared your desire to keep things organized and your husband like everything out in the opening. It made me realize that my husband and I have the same problem. I want everything to have a specific space and he spreads everything out wherever. Drives me nuts!
Rori ~ Writing a eulogy must have been so difficult for you as you thought about all the memories you and your friend had.

Hello again!
The doorbell just rang, and I had a delivery of flowers from M&S. I had no idea who it could be, but it turned out to be from my three schoolfriends who I Zoom with every two weeks. In fact, tomorrow! They are beautiful roses 🌹 .
I will post a photo when I've arranged them, which requires me going downstairs. I've been napping this afternoon. Body catching up on lost sleep.
Machka - That is some saga. May be time to rest a bit. It must be scary.
Pip - I love seeing the care you take with the objects you bring into your life. You have so much love to give.
Beth - Always thinking of you.
Annie - You are often in my thoughts also. A hard road.
Love to all.
