    I have really enjoyed reading this thread. I know there was a similar thread a number of years ago, which I added to, and will do so here, as well. But first I'd like to say that as I was...

    Gouda Aphtanoon! SiL and BiL came over around noontime, she had curtains for Nannie's bathroom window, so she can't be seen from outside! And she brought over a hideous shower curtain for the...

    Nannie was less....what's the word, "verbose"? She did take a nice nap, so I went upstairs and did a few things. Now I am just finishing up the laundry. I ate a late supper because at 8:30 I realized...

    I actually got up in the AM hours. I tried to go back to sleep, but to no avail. Now I am up, dressed, downstairs in the den and having my restorative coffee; Momo has had her breakfast and done her...

    A new dawn, a new day, and a New Year. I pray this one is better than the last one! I was awake at midnight, but still said to myself, as the first of the fireworks boomed out, "What the heck was...

    Nannie is fighting her nap, but I believe she will go deeper in a short while. I have showered, dried my hair, and dressed, so I am presentable, but since prolly no one will see me it doesn't...

    Yeh, I supposedly retired or was about to retire, but then we moved down here to take care of Nannie. As her dementia has progressed she required a little more and a little more help with ADL's. And...

    It is sunny and 52 degrees. The thermostat was on 72 overnight, but I woke up shivering under my down blanket, so I bumped it up to 74 to get the edge off the chill. I finally got OOB so I could...

    Woke up at 9:30 AM, and felt, for some reason, bummed out. Not sure if that was from a dream or just 'the phase of the moon." What awakened me was the sound of the trash trucks picking up trash and...
