A good night's sleep, chocolate, the happiness and satisfaction of sharing on AgingCare forum. Does anyone have some favorite things to think about? Yes, this phrase is from the song in the movie "The sound of Music". My husband and I often resort to using movie lines and song to improve communication. We were the only two in a gathering of people who heard the background music playing. We both had the same (cassette tape/CD). A connection bringing two people together. To this day, we crack up when one uses a simple movie line to make a serious point.
SO, What is one of your favorite movie line, some of your favorite things?

Its so true. The thing I was most afraid of was the death of one of my parents. It happened to me and I wished I could have put it off just a bit longer. The facts are the facts and I can't avoid the pain and sorrow.
Thank you for your reply. I will try my friend. I hope I can do some good during this difficult time. I am eternally grateful to all my friends here on this forum and their replies to me during my grief journey. Their answers hold me up, when I want to fall down.
Don't know what to say, now that the thing you didn't want to happen has happened. But there are others, who I see that you are supporting, even though your loss was recent. Reaching out, so you won't be alone during this difficult time, is one good thing you can do for yourself and others.
You are not alone, there are others. Stick around.
Thank you for sharing these quotes. You've Got Mail is one of my favorite movies as well. Thank you for picking the quote that expresses so well how I feel tonight. That's how I feel right now, no one can ever make it right since my daddy died. No one.
Kathleen Kelly: [writing to "NY152"] People are always telling you that change is a good thing. But all they're really saying is that something you didn't want to happen at all... has happened. My store is closing this week. I own a store, did I ever tell you that? It's a lovely store, and in a week it will be something really depressing, like a Baby Gap. Soon, it'll just be a memory. In fact, someone, some foolish person, will probably think it's a tribute to this city, the way it keeps changing on you, the way you can never count on it, or something. I know because that's the sort of thing I'm always saying. But the truth is... I'm heartbroken. I feel as if a part of me has died, and my mother has died all over again, and no one can ever make it right.
Joe Fox: It wasn't... personal.
Kathleen Kelly: What is that supposed to mean? I am so sick of that. All that means is that it wasn't personal to you. But it was personal to me. It's *personal* to a lot of people. And what's so wrong with being personal, anyway?
Joe Fox: Uh, nothing.
Kathleen Kelly: Whatever else anything is, it ought to begin by being personal.
It must be famous if people are trying to copy it?

Beans are soaking already, and I'll get them into the pot with the remainder of the ham & bone tomorrow to cook all day. DD is happy - she loves the stuff. I'll eat a little of it and freeze the rest, and she can take it with her when she moves. It's not exactly low-carb friendly. I love it, but don't need to go haywire with it. She wasn't too happy to find out I had sent most of the high-carb leftovers home with my brother. LOL
Some people love Miracle Whip. My great aunt used to use it for potato salad, her speciality.
Do you ever put Durkey's on Turkey?
Nearly the same recipe here - hellmans is best foods out west and we add a little sweet pickle too
Mom isn't a fan of paprika so pimento instead and olives
Happy Easter
"You Raise Me Up"
When I am down and, oh, my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up to more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up to more than I can be.
There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up to more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up to more than I can be.
You raise me up to more than I can be.
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.....
Oops, editing here, dH was timing the eggs.....soft boiled....add a minute and microwave the little suckers. Bleck!
Ist,Boil the amount of eggs you want.For 24,boil 12 eggs.
Then scoop out all the yolks into a mixing bowl.
Then add mayonese.I use Hellmans.About half to three fourths cup full depending on how much yolk stuff you have.Then I add alittle mustard.You can always add more but easy does it on the mustard at first.Then whip it in the mixing bowl all together and Taste until it tastes liikke you like or it's right.
Then I usually use a teaspoon and I fill each egg(but I like cwillie's way).Then sprinkle with a little paprika and top with a green olive.And That's it.How I make 'em.
Good Luck on yours.I'll be thinking about you....Lu
Stopping by your favorite store, they come prepared now, very nice party trays.
Luckylu makes deviled eggs though. She told me, but did not share the recipe.
Anyone have a secret recipe - no sirracha mayo please
