All of us are a pain in the rear.... no exceptions.
That's why family is so valuable.
*smiles*
Yep...
Of course...we also tend to say things to our family that we wouldn't DREAM of saying to anyone else...insults and bickering and such. Because we know we can.
At least, I know I do at times. Not proud of it, but it happens.
I can easily imagine Corin talking a lot about ~his~ bowels in his final days, probably over dinner ;~D.
Bowel obsession is just something that happens to old folks.... we'll know why soon enough, unless we are spared old age by a passing truck. :~D
Heh...it was a major accomplishment to teach her to use her cell phone.
No, Nana will never be on the Internet. She would be a lot better off if her other kids cared to come see her. But we're not holding our breath for that.
In reality, while we know she's lonely, she's in much better spirits than last time (granted, she's not in as much pain). She just doesn't realize that once she tells us something (as in the cheese reference), that she doesn't need to tell us another 20 times. But that's part of being old.
I have been informed, however, that "applesauce helps."
I filed that under "Too Much Information."
I'd file it under "Good to know" ;~D
Ha! Found the secret roof staircase. Wow... a lovely view, and a lovelier day. Got a few pics but I'm not sure how they'll turn out.
Why wait for dinner? Is there something you need to know?
I thought the Tax Codes were written in the Black Speech... 'splain why I don't unnerstand it...
Not at the moment! :~D
Hope they turn out OK!
Almost time to go here...not snowing yet, though. Hope we get a snow day tomorrow...but it's not lookin' likely.
Woot, we got new chairs! And good ones, with back support.
I think hoping for snowdays when you're on a four-week countdown is wrong anyway...
Aw, you're no fun! ;-)
And besides, it's a FIVE week count down. Or...in any case, five weeks from today we leave Vermont.
You decided to leave Monday morning, not Sunday afternoon, then?
Margaret works that Sunday - so that was never in the plan.
We plan to leave as early as possible on Monday.
Cool...
Five weeks is not a long time!
Here's my favorite "support site."

I hate to bring this up on ecurbh's first day at work. But should I be gettin' muh luggage out of the attic?
It's going to go by vey fast and vey slow at the same time.
Ugh...speaking of one of the slow things, I'm not lookin' forward to another night on the air mattress. I gotta move it into the office, I guess. It isn't nearly as warm as a real bed (maybe cause it's at ground level) and the bedroom isn't heated. Even with the door open, it was collllllld last night.
I'm heading out in a couple of minutes here, but wanted to ask you what day you plan on flying in.
I don't mind flying solo, but I'd like someone to help me out once I get there (ShootMoot). :-D
Be back later....
