heading out to Rhinelander in ~10 min

6 hour drive!

wheeeeeeeeee

hi

What's up?

cold, gray, drizzly day

I am debating if I want a gob, OR strawberries with the finally acquired cool whip

if it were warmer, strawberries

but the chill says Gob

What a day this has been, what a swell mood I'm in, while it's almost like being in love. There's a smile on my face, for the whole human race, why it's almost like being in love..

gob and coffee

Hello all you beautiful people!

And I must ask, though I may have been told before, what is Gob?

It's a cake-ish cookie (cookie-ish cake?) sandwich

sometimes called a whoopie pie

Oh! Oatmeal Cream Pie humungish

Soft and chewy and verrrrrry chocolatey

I should feel bad, but I am in terrrrrrrrrrrifific mood!

?

kittens?

Ah, first a kitten report though that's not the source of 79% of my joy

Dee is still at a distance from people most of the time, cautious, but she climbs like no one's biz, and has punished her more gregarious sister by chasing her, tagging or tackling her, and runnning off 🙂

So why Eve remains the social one, Dee is still playful... just on her own terms

Both sound utterly purrrrrrfect.

Yes.. but the main reason I'm happy? The house is B less for at leas 3 days. MAYBE forever Knock on wood

WHUT?!?!?

ooo?

Last night, others gone to bed, and I hear B coming out. She's been very difficult. Well, long story short, she wanted down stairs... told me she was looking for her cane and how she was going etc etc.. now I can't make her do anything... and she ignored my explainationns that dead people were NOT outside or anything... but and if I hadn't been there, she would have fallen downn them. Instead... ad I KIND of feel bad for this. I told her she was blocking my path to the hallbath room. And she glared, HUMPH!, and whipped her walker around ... and... fell, but in the hall instead of the stairs

Now, the others woke up too, but she said she hit her head.

Which she might have

Well, B's S i L looked at his wife, and they were like 'let's call non Emergency'....

and while B's daughter lost a nigght sleep handlinng it, she told the hospital they wanted a social work... so mandatory 3 day observation!

That must be a huge relief; she has medical care and attention and if she's in the state you say, that care and attention will see it.

Yeah

and as awful as she's been, nobody wants her to fall down the stairs

Yes. I mean I feltt bad about her falling but one of my Housemate's is like "She owuld have takenn a dive down them without you"

And now? I am selflishly giddily happy.

you are allowed

Because we found that loophole thanks to a nnice therapist, and for once the damn hospitals can't shoot her back like a hot potato right away (Kind of bitter about that)

Yes. Hopefully she will get the help she needs

oh yeah, fuck the US system

Now B's daughter still needs to show up at the hospital at least for an hour, and she feels bad (No one wants to put their loved on in a home even if it IS for their own good) and B will probably make her feel like shit- but her husband told her "Better we put up with it for an hour, than the weekend. She's going to try to make you feel bad either way"

or something like that

true

manipulative old bag

So while it may make me seem cold, I am all grins today
