    This is not an IQ test it’s the standard test to measure dementia and whether you’re capable to be left alone with sharp objects, young children and puppies. I’ve had a couple of these as part of a pre lung transplant assessment

     

    Yeah, once you pass a certain age, your yearly physical includes the doctor beginning the appointment telling you 3 words that she/he will ask you to say back to her/him  at the end of the appointment.  Since they inform you that they’ll ask for the word retrieval a bit later, you should be able to commit them to memory fairly easily, but, for sure I repeated them to myself more than a couple of times because I know when I’m home, I leave a room to retrieve something in another room… and totally forget what that “something” was. A lot. Happens a LOT. 😂

    But, since Trump lies all the time, I have no confidence that he was able to recall his words…. I’m sure he just threatened the doctor. Because that’s who he is.Always.

    About 6 weeks  ago this guy started getting sick and throwing up. Then he stopped eating. A bunch of tests and few thousand dollars later we still don’t know what it was. Doctor thought it was addisons disease which would have meant forever treatment. It wasn’t. She knew of a parasite with similar symptoms so we treated it as if it were that. I swear at one point I figured we were going to lose him. I had already told myself that.  He was on prednisone and going out every hour. One night he’d just go out there and lay down. I had to put his leash on to simulate a walk and that got him back in. He would only eat chicken if we made it and barely any at that.  Then one day he finally ate a half serving of his food. A few days later he was back to his normal diet and routine and now he’s better than ever. I was feeling guilty over not taking him for enough walks. Sunday is our long run day but with the freep half marathon last week and our post race massages, which is worse for us physically than the race itself, we decided to walk our route today and take him with us. He loved it. Out in the woods and taking in all the smells.  He’s been sleeping since.  Dogs rule!

  3. So, I moved outta Jersey two weeks ago, (so far, so good….. cat acclimated by day 2, it took me a little longer), and I realized this morning that Halloween is next Friday….

    So, I went to my neighborhood grocery chain and bought the BIG bag of assorted candy (m&m’s, Reese’s, etc) because I have NO idea whether my new little block gets a lot of trick-or-treaters, a few trick-or-treaters, no trick-or-treaters.

    But for sure, the last thing I wanted to do was get stuck with no candy here and have the whole new neighborhood complex Talk about the new chick from Jersey who’s a “cheap ass son of a bitch to Halloween trick-or-treaters”. 😱

    I am kinda hoping there will be some come around because I do love to see the costumes & happy faces — or sometimes the totally confused tiny faces of first time trick-or-treaters. So cute 😊

  4. Yikes. Reading this last page of posts (& then re-reading them / still baffled) totally makes me realize I can’t possibly incorporate most of this (knowingly) in my life. I’ve often admitted to being old, but now for sure I feel like a dinosaur.

    I can’t edit posts. I and not an admin.

    You can absolutely modify your own post. You absolutely can modify your own post and remove anything from it or change the wording. Come on. You know this.

    Sue what do you want? Should this room only have left free speech? Have I personally attacked anyone after MWG had me sit out a week? Do you ask anyone else to explain themselves? I didn’t even react when Hongbit made fun of my chili. 

    The post I pointed out to you in that message was actually a personal attack. Which is why I wanted to give you the opportunity to walk it back. 
     

    Oh my God.
    Why don’t you go ahead and make sure you private message somebody else so you can tell everyone what an awful awful moderator & person I am. Won’t be the first time you’ve done it.

    Alligator Alcatraz had a lot of MAGAs excited.  

    Could have also rightly been called Alligator Auschwitz…. Since there are a whole lot of people who haven’t been accounted for.

    I think I'm going to wear a yellow shirt to work on Monday.  Maybe I'll acquire more yellow shirts and wear them every Monday. 

    Many days I look awful , but especially in yellow…. (Why wasn’t any other color their choice. 🫣)

    So, this type of post… well, it seems your very sole purpose here is to troll.  
    Looking for reactions.  Mirroring agitators sent to protests trying to spark violence.

    That’s some ugly ****.  
    Is this all you have to offer in response?  It’s not a good look.
    Maybe, get some sunshine/Vitamin D today.
