Fishy

Would a couple of Belgian waffles do?? ;-)

so funny...... 'sheshe booboo' is actually what I call one of my kittykats - this month anyway - Hee!

And Chewy had my litter for : $24.37 Cat's Pride Premium Fresh & Light Fragrance Free Multi-Cat Scoopable Cat Litter 28 lbs and my pet store has same size product for $12.98. I'm not getting a deal with Chewy. ETA - that is a sale price, but even regular price 16.98 is no comparison to Chewy. Go figure.

Coffeecup, I hope I never need a PET scan. Your description touched me. Hope you are okay.

I found this interesting when it comes to Amazon: Amazon’s long been a go-to for people to online price compare while shopping at brick-and-mortars. Now, a new patent granted to the company could prevent people from doing just that inside Amazon’s own stores. the whole story

I still have a landline and yes, you get used to it, quick look at Caller ID and I let them go to the answering machine - never any msg. I do this too. Agree Do not Call list is a joke. There seems to always be a way around it.

The closest Hobby Lobby is 30 minutes away, which I hate, so I don't go there often. But it's a new one and it's COLOSSAL!! I just wish it was closer to home but then again, maybe it's a good thing it's not. Just sayin'. I've heard of AC Moore but never seen one in my area. All we have nearby is Michaels and they're okay, but maybe they'd be better if they had some nearby competition.

Cricket - thinking of and praying for you and Joe. ((Hugs))

This!! X a million. The show has seriously changed. the whole clip

Yes.

Can someone recap what happened between Wendy and Suzanne for me?? I missed it. If the monologue is on tape somewhere and someone can direct me to it, I'll look it up. I only saw some exchange of tissues yesterday between the two but didn't know what that was all about. And today, I don't think Suzanne was there. Didn't care for her making fun of the white guy with the blue shirt in the audience. Wendy is a self-absorbed bitch.

So very sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. May you find comfort in this your greatest loss. {{Hugs}} to you now and going forward.

I just have to say somewhere that my heart bleeds for the family of Otto Warmbier.

BB I was just thinking about your estranged brother and whether to tell him the circumstances surrounding your Mom. I agree with others that if you can call, he needs to be told, basically just to cover all bases. I myself was told by a therapist that I should disconnect from my Mother totally when I was younger. She was a toxic person. I couldn't do it though because being a Christian I truly believed in honoring thy Mother and Father. Hearing your similar story with your brother just brought it all up for me again and how my life might have been different. You said you and your Mom never really knew why he disconnected from the family. During that time did your Mother ever talk about him or try to contact him or anything? Hope I haven't offended you by getting too nosy, but I was just thinking that her actions or feelings during that time might determine what you do in terms of contacting him directly or indirectly and honoring what your Mother might want. She is primary here.

Yikes - can you work with it?? - maybe brushing it and cutting some of the bulk out might help??

Hate the Toujeo commercial with the idiotic dancing guy. Dancing while he's seated at his computer, dancing on his way into his staff meeting. Ugh - Idiotic.

I don't need to step outside to know it's uncomfortably warm because my cats are my temperature gauge. Even though indoor temps are comfortable my cats are still sprawled out and stretched out like limp rags everytime I go look for them. They're feeling it. It's going to be close to 95 here today. Yowza. For this non heat lover a trip to that ice hotel might be nice right about now.

Keeping you and your Dad in my thoughts and prayers ((Hugs))

I just HAVE to get this story out - if you've been posting at the other place, you'll understand. I had a co-worker (an older lady) who always bought in homemade goodies, cakes, cookies, you name it and we chowed them down with gusto. One Saturday we were going to go to an art fair together and I went to her house to pick her up. Well, her kitchen was a TOTAL DISASTER AREA, crusted and spilled over food on the stove, dirty dishes and utensils piled high in the sink that looked like they'd been there for days, all dried and crusty looking and paper piled a foot high on her dining table. She asked me if I would like some coffee and I said 'sure' and then watched her reheat some old coffee that was in a pot on the stove (God knows how old it was) and served it to me with a big smile. Yikes! You can imagine what I thought the next time she brought food into the office.

Oh BB, sending you massive hugs and love to handle this transition. The place sounds lovely and just the name alone sounds so picturesque. I hope your Mom will rest comfortably. The hospice angels will see to that. I'm sure she hears you when you speak to her. God bless you and your Mom. Will be thinking of you both.

I'm sorry for your situation, but we are holding you in our thoughts ...

Yes, noticed you were 'missing in action' - hope you won't stay away forever. we would miss you.

I agree with this and providing "comfort" is a good way to put it. Sending comforting hugs to you too BB as you go through all this.... thinking of you.

I know I myself would love to see that. Oh well, I suppose worse things have been created in the name of art. Hee! I still dearly miss one of my local Kmarts in particular, only this one. One that was clean and always well stocked and easy to get in and out of. So many retail stores anymore have expanded soooo much to include any and everything that it's a major hike to walk through them for one item.

Yes, sometimes it feels like a full time job for me... (groan) There's just something about the 'anonymity' of it all that can be really seductive when you're in a bad mood or weak of will. Not to be preachy, but I pray about it a L O T!
