Hey folks, welcome to the new whine/general topic thread. Feel free to use this thread to discuss anything that is on your mind. Caregiving- related stuff, life after a loved one's death, your own emotional wellbeing. Whatever..........anything on your mind.
here are some useful quotes!
"A real situation will always expose a fake friend."
"Having fake friends is like having a broken umbrella -
unless when it rains."
It's just a fact of life
Maybe there is an alcohol or an addiction issue with your friend?
It is hard , we are in an era that loneliness is an epidemic, and loneliness is very unhealthy too. I'm not sure if it's age or every age. I got rid of my friends that abuse alcohol because, I just can't handle them anymore. It's not and easy time for a lot of people, your not alone
It’s like that quote:
“When people show you who they are, believe them.”
It just freaked me out a little,
Maybe your friend is bipolar?
Very sorry, it just made me wonder
Maybe I'm really being paranoid, but are you her?
It's getting rather lonely, for me here in the states. I can not talk politics, I manage really well with that, avoiding subject that may start something.
But I don't do so well handling it when others talk about things I feel very strongly about, I can't seem to shut my mouth then.
So pretty much staying to myself. I just want elections over.
If you asked them "Why have you given up our friendship" and they haven't the courtesy to reply to you, then really it isn't worth a single second of your thought.
I think I found the culprit. In NYS we don't use disposable plastic bags, so I have a crate of reusable bags, next to my crate of potatoes. Well 👍 found what I suspect was once a potato in the bottom of my reusable supermarket bags.
Think it's going to be a bit before I can get them all out, but I did get an awful lot of cleaning done. 😆
I hear you about the pipe replacement. One year they replaced pipes in front of the house and before they had finished that also behind the house in the lane. It was noise pollution. I couldn't get away from it anywhere. At the same time the reno guys were removing the stucco from the side of the house before putting on vinyl siding. Arrrgh!!!! It was awful and very dusty.
Had a break for a month or so , they were on the other side of town, but there back. 🥴
I've got the burners of my gas stove soaking in bleach in the sink. And scrubbing the whole area.
Will see what happens next.
I'll be scrubbing my kitchen all day , see if that helps.
Suggestions welcomed 😉
I'm thinking when I adopt 15 plants for someone, I brought them in
