Thank you Molly
6:15 am
rubyfoo
Hello, Molly, thank you for asking.
6:15 am
lil*monkey
what a stupid word
6:16 am
rubyfoo
Except for the laast day, it was pretty awful!
6:16 am
MollyL
It is unfortunate that he is so critical Ruby. I'm sure it makes your visits with him unpleasant.
6:17 am
lil*monkey
who is critical of you ruby?
6:17 am
lil*monkey
well bring him here. lil*monkey will put him in his place.
6:17 am
rubyfoo
But it's worse than that; he is totally egocentric and withodut grace
6:18 am
lil*monkey
a little poo flinging should do it.
6:18 am
MollyL
Lil is like me. I would put up with that shit for about two seconds before lowering the boom. As Bill Cosby said, I brought my kids into this world, I can take them out too.
6:18 am
rubyfoo
he never once asked if he could do anything to help
6:19 am
rubyfoo
He's not Young and is only getting worse. I can't change him now
6:19 am
MollyL
Ruby, I can tell you from experience that people do not have the sympathy for widows that they once did. We live in a world where there is very little respect.
6:19 am
lil*monkey
I'm in a similar situation with my mother, she is hyper critical. Hard to deal with when it's family.
6:20 am
rubyfoo
the poo flinging would have been a good id**
6:20 am
MollyL
You can't change him now, but you can tell him what kind of behavior you will and will not put up with.
6:20 am
lil*monkey
I sympathize and empathize , ruby *hugs*
6:20 am
rubyfoo
It's not my widowhood for which I want sympathy, but I need physical help and he seemed to begrudge me a helping hand
6:20 am
lil*monkey
With my mother, when she gets too critical and unpleasant , I just stand up and say "I'm leaving the room" and then I do leave.
6:21 am
MollyL
On a positive spin, living alone doesn't seem so bad after you've had company like that. : D
6:21 am
lil*monkey
I love living alone. There is no one out there who could change my mind.
6:21 am
MollyL
Good for you Lil. That is called "setting boundaries".
6:21 am
rubyfoo
John leaves if he disagrees with me about things like whether it's going to rain
6:21 am
rubyfoo
<-- loves living alone!
6:22 am
rubyfoo
(with dogs, of course)
6:22 am
MollyL
Wow, in the great scheme of things, does it really matter who is right about whether or not it will rain?
6:22 am
lil*monkey
No dogs for me, I have allergies.
6:23 am
lil*monkey
Yes Molly has a point, ruby. Often I will just smile and say "OK !" when I know my mother is wrong. There's no point in contradicting her.

hi, all. we took our dog for a short walk yesterday, and he was a champion. He didn't miss one command, and he behaved beautifully. I love him already, and he's only been here six days.

You must have a smart dog Angel. The only thing my Marco understands is walkies and food being served
7:22 am
MollyL
It is a companion dog Bich. I imagine it's been trained.
7:23 am
bichon
We tried training ours, even went to obedience school. No luck. But he is generally well behaved. so it's not a problem
7:25 am
MollyL
From what I have read, some breeds train better than others, which is why there are certain breeds that make better companion dogs.

To fu, or not to fu, that is the question. Whether 'tis nobler in the diet to eat well, or to suffer the slings and arrows of horrid diet food

Tofu is the abba of food sources

Maybe if they dehydrated it and dunked it in dark chocolate it would be palatable.
1:13 pm

There are better uses for chocolate than to cover dehydrated bean curd.

Or it could be made into insulation.

thank heavens when I was in high school eons ago we got to choose 2 between chem, physics and biology and only if we were majoring in science....no sciences required after grade 10....needless to say, I majored in English, History, French, Music and Math - to noxious smells and no blood!

7:39 pm
cybernan
I remember my math teacher asking me, after several extra help sessions, why I took a math major when I didn't need it (just needed 3 majors for matric and I had 5) --- I replied that I was so terrible at math that I only took it in the hopes that I would learn something more. He recommended me through finals so I wouldn't have a blemish on my academic record, knowing full well that I didn't have a hope of passing the final.
7:39 pm
