@Navi10021981@txsalth2o@JulesDiner My mother talked about it a lot. She said she never wanted to be a burden, she’d happily go to a home when she couldn’t look after hers. When the time came, the fear and dementia changed everything and our previous conversations were irrelevant. Somethings are hard to plan for.
@fopminui I helped my mom keep knitting during early dementia. She made dozens of sock tubes (I add heels and toes) and blanket squares (I assembled five large blankets). Unfortunately her dementia has advanced and she is angry and frustrated by the loss. I hope your mom remains happy.
@CalamityJayne4 @Lifetouch I paid about $40 for my kid’s school photos this year and then $130 plus $30 for the sitting fee for the same number of prints. Such a scam! Sure it took more time and there were more poses and some props. But shouldn’t the sitting fee cover that?
@ReignOfApril I’m a knitter but that is an all consuming hobby so be careful. I paint watercolour cards so I don’t have to buy any. They look like a child painted them but I add some black pen and they make me happy. I’m also curious about reverse colouring. I just heard of it.
@EJsKnitsGB For a minute I thought someone had posted my knitted nativity. The colours are so similar, but mine only has one shepherd. And took me 8 years to finish. Beautiful work and a lovely gift.
@Marilyn71518418@MarieSnyder27 It wasn’t. And in March 2020 my kid was in grade 8, now she is in grade 12. Five school years affected. A small portion of the first year and we’ve just begun the fifth year. Time flies!
@MadScientistFF Wonder. Who was in that movie? What year did this happen? How does this work? Especially in a group. The conversation is stifled as someone pulls out their phone and says “well, actually…”
