I took my 88-yr old mother to her new family doctor and we all had a chat. The doc prescribed some medication that might help her bone density because he was worried about her falling and possibly breaking a hip. He told me that falls were the primary concern for everyone at that age, because a broken hip (even with successful surgery) often means the end of life within 6 months to a year. That scares me and makes me worry even more. She doesn't go out walking anywhere, now, but a simple tumble off a chair or stair might be enough to start her end.

On Tuesday I drove out to my new school to have a little meeting with the principal, get my keys, laptop, textbooks, resources, and see my classrooms. I’ll use a cart to take my stuff with me when I’m teaching the elementary classes. The older classes of students come to my classroom or science lab.
I viewed a small old house and arranged to rent it. The rent is reasonable and includes all utilities. The house also includes basic furnishings. The house has a weird layout and low ceilings in the 1/2 basement, but it’ll work fit my purposes. I’m preparing a list of what else I’ll want to bring with me in August. I’ve already started to purchase some items and bought duplicate hygiene items, etc.

TGIF! Let's get this crazy work day out of the way and start the weekend!
DS and his friends started a project yesterday. Cleaning/Setting up the basement. Decided to move the projector down there so they mudded/sanded and painted a wall white! I can't wait to take a look at it when I get home from work today and see the progress.
Dinner tonight- Thinking Chicken kabobs on the bbq, rice and salad. (I cooked a pot of rice last night to make it easier tonight )
Have a wonderful day and weekend! I hope to get lots done around the house

Re eliminating paper flyers
These companies have the assumption that everyone has data and therefore they can save money by not printing flyers. I enjoy looking through paper flyers, and circling what I need. I will bring the flyer into the store with me, otherwise I will forgot to pick up sale items.
Its annoying for me as I don't have data, I'm at the mercy of the stores' wifi. None of the stores close to my home price match, and I refuse to drive far, as it appears to be a hassle by what I have heard and with the price of gas, it would cost me more.Last edited by barbis9; Fri, Jul 8th, 2022 at 11:28 AM.

@harbie is Dh still alive for taking the last coffee?
I hope you clear up the insurance issue, that must be so frustrating! They have no problems taking your money but if you make a claim, they treat you differently.

@HermanH also a person can hit their head and have a subdural hematoma and if not attending to asap at emergency, can cause a fast, declining death as it is very traumatic to the whole body. Apparently as we get older our brains shrunk and this is more likely. I too thought a broken hip was the worse thing for an elderly person, until my mother died one month after having a massive hematoma in her early 70's.

QOTD; For those of you who have cats do you have a bin to remove and put the dirty litter...I dont have one at the moment and that smell and not hygenic..so I will go see some at mondoux pet store this afternoon I think..The price range at 21$ plus the refill bags plus taxes...a long term investment..just need to convince dad haha about that lol

I not only do not have data, I don't even have a dial tone (service!). I only connect to wi-fi and cannot believe how horrid the service most establishments do or, more accurately, do not provide. In return for their poor wi-fi coverage, I try to limit my visits to those businesses that at least give me some wi-fi support and pretend that they want my patronage.

With dad agreement I made the decision to go ahead and purchase the litter dirty bin and refill at mondoux.It came to 46$ for all..It is a long term investment.I had a 15$ saving from sale...A little ticked and per chance I always have cash in my wallet because today they where a problem and I needed to paid cash
The small fridge is defrosting on the balcony.All the cold things was moved to the big fridge in this time
Will do the freezer cleaning after dinner
Dinner; PC garlic and herbs shrimps,and salad and maybe a rice
It is nice and sunny,24 degres
Enjoy the rest of the day!!!The goal is to live day by day not to much thinking hahaha !!!!
