Granny's gone and done it again

Can I go into the out now? Lol

My favorite line!
Mom and I always say "Into the out" and subsequently, "out of the in". She doesn't know where it comes from because she doesn't like animated stuff, hehe.

I also love the "sad mad". What a helpful thing to teach kids about... and hopefully some adults too.

Yes! It's what I take if/ when my neck, shoulders, back, hip(s), knee, and/or ankle hurt at night and won't let me sleep. Works good for me, no hangover in the morning, not addictive, for me at least. At the present time I probably only need it 2 - 3 times a month.

thanks Blue

There are so many people coming to my house. I don't like it. Tomorrow is nurse and house keeper.
I lost another 6 lbs. Don't know how. I haven't crapped in about 10 day

How is Tom doing through all of this? We all value our privacy and right now you have no privacy at all including your body, your house, everything. For many reasons it's very understandable that you are under a lot of stress.
When I was a teen,I was 'housekeeping' for a young Mother (they had 2 little children) who just gave birth. The same day the baby was born, the Grandfather who lived with them passed away. The neighbors did her laundry and she confided in me that she was never so embarrassed. Her clothing were stretched and torn and she was going to throw them away when the baby came. The point is, anybody who is a caretaker or housekeeper should respect your privacy. And in my experience they do. Though I admit when we had a visiting nurse I do remember sticking the dirt dishes in the oven!

Before this I was taking Zolpidem (Ambien), and I was getting addicted to that. One thing I like about the Tizanidine is, I can feel it starting to work, so I can log out and shut my phone off. With the Zolpidem, I'd be texting or posting and next thing I knew, I'd be waking up, and I'd see that I'd posted stuff I couldn't remember and that made no sense! I mean, I'd be wide awake (felt like) and next thing you know I'm out like a light. Did not like that.

He seems to be healing up but still having the weakness and confusion that started it all. He like the attention he gets from them

Granny have you ever tried a 'purple cow' for constipation? It's a glass of prune juice with an ounce of milk of magnesia mixed in it.

 

[BigBlueHen53]

I hope so too. It doesn't seem to knock me out. It just relaxes me so I can sleep. Anyway, give it a try and see how it works for you.

My nurse SIL called it a brown cow (purple cow has grape juice) and recommended warming it slightly in the microwave.

Granny, you have tried this before, with good results. Your PP (pain pills) tend to constipate you.

I was babysitting in Fl. for this beautiful girl the hippy parents had named Grasshopper. I couldn't believe the state of their house. Dripping with roaches. I wouldn't even sit down there. It was too much for me.
