A magician was boasting one day at how long he could hold his breath under water. His record was 6 minutes. A kid that was listening said, "that's nothing, I can stay under water for 10 minutes using no types of equipment or air pockets!" The magician told the kid if he could do that, he'd give him $10,000. The kid did it and won the money. Can you figure out how?
The kid filled a glass of water and held it over his head for 10 minutes.
I just feel like they need to lighten up a bit. None of us is happy 24/7, but if you are on a dating site and you want to get noticed, perhaps a nice smile would help. Unless you have black teeth and then it might not be good to smile.
Thank you. I guess the best I can do is to immutate my father. He has always been a man who never complained and always accepted life's ups and downs. He has always been a strong man.
I have my father's memoirs that I have been putting together. I want to create a cd to give to all the family members. Good idea about the recording his voice though.
They do have what many people only dream of. It's that my dad is no longer the man he once was. So many of his memories are gone. My mother has never worked outside of the home, and I worry for her. Also, my dad use to be so very intelligent. He seem to know everything about history, government, geography, he was good at fixing things etc. Now he can't do most things on his own. Ex: My mother asked my dad to put something in the microwave, and he asked what a microwave was. He has her up all hours of the night and she is sometime very tired. I tried to get them to live with me, but my mom said she likes her house and she can handle it if she gets her sleep. She doesn't want to put him in a nursing home, doesn't want someone to come in to assist her, and she doesn't want to move to an assisted living facility. So what can I do. I try try to be the shoulder she can lean on. It is hard sometimes.
Wow, I'm glad you got her back. Perhaps in time she will grow closer to you. My sister had a rebellious daughter that was hard to deal with. My niece didn't want anything to do with my sister. Now my nice is a mother of two young children of her own and she calls my sister every day, and sometimes several times a day. Perhaps as your daughter matures, she will also realize how important you are to her. Sometimes it just take time.
My mother is 10 years younger than my father, which is a good thing. She said she can take care of him for now. We had alarms put on the doors of their house, so if my father opens the door it makes a ringing sound. My mother does not want to put him in a nursing home, nor assisted living and she doesn't want to move yet. I told her they could live with me, but she said she doesn't "want to be a burden." So, I am trying to respect her wishes for now. I sometimes feel so helpless. Is your grandmother in a nursing home?
I usually am. It just kills me to know that my father knows his time is short and is saying his goodbyes to my mother. I do feel grateful that they have been married for so many years, and that he has lived a long life, it is never easy though when it is nearing the end.
Yes he was diagnosed. Altimers is a where a person slowly looses their memory. It can get to a point where they don't even remember their loved ones. He isn't lost now, but his memory is getting worse. It is hard seeing him like that and watching my mother deal with it.
I did have a chance to tell my father I loved him, and he said thank you. I had to laugh. He has always been a sweet and gentleman. I know my mother will be lost without him. I tell her I'm here for her, but I know it's not the same. Usually, I try to be strong for her and be that person she can talk to and a shoulder to cry on. At least she is able to tell him she loves him and slowly say goodbye.
It is hard to see a love afair come to and end. My parents have been married 55 years and now my father has Altimers Disease. A while back my father got confused and could not find his way home. Luckily the police found him. He said he had a flash of light in his head, but later things began to clear up. My sister told me that my father told her he doesn't feel he has much longer to live, but asked her not to tell my mother because he didn't want her to worry about him. I talked to my mother today and she said that the day my father got lost, he told her how much he loved her, and how much she meant to him. I think he knows he is slipping away and wanted to tell her this before it was too late. This is a really hard stage to go though.
If I had 4 husbands, and I lived in the Middle East or say Utah, would that count as monogamous? It makes more since for a woman to have more husbands than the men wives. One woman wouldn't have as many children, so if all the guys worked all would have more disposable incomes. Also, the guys could sit around a watch football together while the lady of the house shops. Great idea, huh?
