    I Absolutely Love Pasta

    When the kids were little and we were poor, I would frequently make a pasta dish that they named Mamaroni. ❤️ Cooked noodles sauted with oil (butter if I could afford it) onion and garlic powder, pepper and some fresh garlic, and when some of the noodles got ever so slightly crispy, I’d add some...

    The question that quietly follows us into our senior years.

    This is a complex question for me. Until Devin died, I would have said I was living the life I wanted, making plans, reaching goals, future-thinking life. After he died life was just whatever happened to me because I didn’t care. It just carried me along with it, sometimes unwillingly, and...

    Do you have a mobile phone?

    I opted out of a landline in 2004. I would have done so sooner, but until then I was living with my ex who wouldn’t give up the landline.

    Ron has prostate cancer 😟

    He isn’t any better. His cancer team decided he needed to go to the ER to be evaluated. We’ve been there all day, just now getting ready to leave because they were back and forth on admitting him. They gave him IV morphine and a muscle relaxer, did an MRI, xray, bloodwork, and can’t find any...

    I am really tired.

    I appreciate the suggestion. We’re not there yet. He’s able to be by himself for periods of time, he mostly just sleeps anyway. I’m still working so I prep food for him before I leave to make it easier on him to feed himself. I’m not concerned about him being alone, not yet anyway. You’re...

    I am really tired.

    I’m gonna bitch and whine a bit, so bear with me, please 🙏 I’m exhausted, both physically because I’ve not been sleeping well at all, but even more so emotionally and mentally. I feel such a weight on me as I help Ron navigate his own illness, but also as I support him as he deals with his...

    Ron has prostate cancer 😟

    Well, it’s Saturday, 4 days after his last infusion. He’s still crippled with pain, balance is off, not sleeping. If this infusion runs the same course as his last one, by tomorrow he’ll feel considerably better. His Cycle has changed, so now he’s getting infusions Day one (last Tuesday) and...

    Fables, Stories, Excuses, Lies: Show us one adults told you when young.

    I ate my bread crusts religiously, waiting for my very straight hair to turn curly. I never swallowed my chewing gum, believing that it stayed in my tummy….and I don’t remember what was supposed to happen after that, just that it was something dire!

    Utah and ID Checking

    Two things. When I read the thread title, in my blurred-vision-coffee-deprived state, I thought it said something about an IUD. 🤦‍♀️ Also. I was the 15-looked-25 chick who got into bars everywhere because in Perth Australia back then no one checked IDs.

    @Jules she has a sister who’s wholly immersed Sheri’s concerns. She’s the one who’s also named in Sheri’s Will as guardian to her kids if something happens. Her Mom/Ron’s ex is very involved as is a couple of her very close friends. Not to mention her long time boyfriend who’s been by her side...
