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?
We really do have bunny rabbits multiplying so fast here, leaving poop on the cement overnight. My dog used to want to eat it so we kept cleaning up the tiny pellets. I think all those northern neighbors use it to fertilize their gardens.
Btw, Sunday nights get a little crazy, boring, but I don't drink at all, just whine a little bit. Should I grow my own grapes, send them far far up north to Windy so he can ferment them in wine barrels? His wife would like that. Wouldn't that be therapeutically stinky, Windy?
Mina, that was quite a description of someone I don't know....but thank you for the complement, I may fit one or two of the profiles you mentioned.
Count me in on the memory drugs. And I love your new title for this thread. Sometimes that's exactly what we write about!
It's still too early to think about snow and snow shoveling.
Put all the deck chairs in the shed, drug out the snow tires for the old jeep, and got the tractor cab ready to mount for tomorrow.
Wait....Is this the Whine Thread? No?....... OK ...New Thread: A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS TO WHINE ABOUT WHILE IM GARDENING. That should cover it.
Hey Black Dog. Maybe we can get a group discount on memory drugs!
the small victories, the day-to-day pleasures, the simple joys of quiet friendship and sharing these little things with friends on here, that is a favorite thing today.
Last night I could feel coolness in the air and that special feel of a crisp breeze along with leaves scraping a little on the streets that indicates fall weather. Very nice!
This is the time of year many orchids bloom. We have big purple cattleyas in bloom in the greenhouse and I don't know what else because I didn't go over there yet. Cattleyas are the typical corsage orchids. Big and beautiful.
I've got to make a trip to the greenhouse but I'm so booked for the weekend and past it, too. We have a Women of Faith conference recorded and it's taking several days to view and then a Bible study to read, answer questions and do in the middle of that! Plus all the usual appointments, church, etc. The WOF conference is awesome!!
Try to make the same fun for her now as she made for you as a child.
If you have to, bring a little snowman inside on a tray, just sit there and smile,
See what she does. You can make some of your own fun. It is already amazing how you keep coping in the face of these circumstances. But you are still YOU, I can tell because you have your donkey sense of humor. May these next few days find you peaceful, with a little less work, may it all ba easier for you and Mom.
Snow makes everything so quiet, absorbs traffic noise, and the twinkling, glistening of the flakes with lights of night. Just so peaceful. At least up to the point of hearing cars crash from sliding on the snow and ice. But then, back to the serenity of a beautiful winter snow.
Seriously though, this has blown my diet all to h...eck!
