- I'd give anything to go back to the good old days. The good old days for me was when I hated the idea of marriage. I was one of those single gals who totally enjoyed the freedom. I had fully intended to remain single the rest of my life. And...
- My dog was put down today. It's horrible. She was 15 years old and had several tumors inside and outside of her body. She went from eating like her ususal greedy self, to throwing up and refusing to eat. I took her to the vet who prescribed...
- I can't tell you how horrible I feel., I had to put my dog down today and I've moved in with my father. We're already arguing. I miss my dog so much. She was there for me through the worst of times--miscarriage, mother's death, husband's death....
- In one year I'm thinking about buying a condo or townhouse. For those living in either one of these, which do you prefer, condo or townhouse?
- My dog stopped eating three days ago. It's as if she was doing fine with a great appetite to this. She'll drink water but that's it. I know this is the end, but I wish I had more time. DH passed in March, now this. It seems too much.
- I lost my husband's wedding band on the day his aneurysm burst. I remember putting it on my finger but it was too big. I was in a state of shock as we'd never expected something like this. He looked to be in good health. Anyhow, somehow the ring...
- Okay, this is going to sound crazy, but here it is: my favorite photo of my husband is his driver's license picture. I don't know what it is, but his smile in this picture makes me feel like he's here with me in so many ways. When I'm sad, I look...
- Well, I completed my husband's final arrangements. He was cremated back in April, but I never did anything with the ashes. At the time, I couldn't imagine walking into a cementary. I beleive once the soul leaves the body, that's it. My...
- I'm considering a career change. Money magazine had an article about becoming a Patient Advocate. It was listed as a good job for seniors. It sounds good, but I was wondering if anyone out there is one or have heard of someone who is?It pays...
- There's a post out here about having children. I'm childfree, a decision I made when I was just a child. I made an informed decision, checking into the possibilty of having a child in my forties(If I changed my mind) or finding a way to care for...
- Anyone see that old Bette Davis movie called Now Voyager? It's one of my favorite films. Up until now, it was just that--a film I watched over and over again. Until today. That's when I realized that I'm the Bette Davis character, living at home...
- Does anyone know anything about the up and coming career of Patient Advocate?How hard is it for a career changer(sales) to get a job?
- I'm back home caring for my father who had foot surgery. It will be a permanent move at the end of the month. For now, I'm packing and trying to make sense of it all. I can't tell you how horrifying it is to me to be moving back home at 53. It's...
- I'm moving just two months after losing my husband. It's hard. Every item holds a memory. My husband was a pack rat. Stuff going back decades all sitting in boxes. Some are treasures: yearbooks, old pictures, etc. Some just stuff he didn't...
- I had it down pat. I figured that the reason we widows/widowers had memory problems was that we simply didn't pay attention to what we're doing. I figured if I really concentrated on all task, then everything will be okay.I'm proud to say that...
