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.
Are you sure about that? LOL 😆 I am thinking about all of the concussions that occur in football!
I think screaming into a pillow kind of therapeutic!
Punching a pillow too!
I love chopping veggies when I am frustrated! As long as I don’t miss and chop my fingers off! LOL 😆
I don’t think so. It sounds like you are in enough pain but I get what you’re saying. There were times when I got in the shower and cried my eyes out so no one could hear me.
I hope things improve soon for you.
Mom died in early October, I could probably pinpoint the day if I tried but... I know I came home and busied myself by cleaning up falling leaves.
I was surprised that grandma shared it with me. I was in my 20’s when she told me that. She rarely spoke about anything sad. She was young when she lost her mom. Her dad remarried many years later.
I know that you were young when you lost your dad. That’s so hard to lose a parent when you’re younger.
My mom didn’t know her mom’s mother. She died before mom was born.
Very touching. Certain anniversaries can be very hard.
Thanks, so sorry for your losses as well . I feel that it’s two days some years also due to a holiday not always being the same date . (((hugs))))
It’s not enjoyable anymore.
I asked her, ‘Grandma, how can you hate New Year’s Eve?’
She said, “It seemed like the whole world was celebrating the upcoming New Year and I was sad because my mother died on New Year’s Eve.”
Sorry for your loss.
My late MIL died on the very same day and month as her late husband (who I never met) but 39 years later.
Anyway daughter and son in law came home from week to Netherlands (loved it there) and I no longer have to be referee between 3 and 5 year old grandchildren which is a relief as my husband and I have different viewpoints (we agree) on raising children.
Did you know that sandwiches were named after a guy called the Earl of Sandwich?
I thought it was a joke. Turns out it’s true!
