How safe can anybody be? EWWWW! That was negative!

Yes, Tweety is safe, and as soon as I can move from this bed, I will be safe too.
Feels safer here though!

We were rocking and rolling at hoca in the quake but fortunately the demented don’t seem to notice much

I still need to get home and see if foundation is ok
already had problems from the rain

I’m going to bring the squirt guns back to hoca

seems someone thought it a good idea for the kitchen staff to no longer serve in the dining hall

now the understaffed and overworked caregivers must fetch the plates and bring to the dining hall

the Viking didn’t get her shake tonight.

Several other residents didn’t have dessert or even anything to drink

The damn dog was eating off the cart left unattended

and residents were up way too late asleep in their wheelchairs after dinner

WTF

I was having a somewhat quiet and pleasant afternoon with the Viking today in her room - she was sleepy all day and in bed but woke cheerful from her nap, so I got her something to drink and a snack and put on an Elvis cd

One of the residents was miffed and wanted to go home today and decided to pull the fire alarm - holy moly a defeaning siren went off in every room and staff couldn't turn it off - everyone was searching the stairwells thinking someone escaped (again)

I stood trying to hold a pillow up against the intercom next to mom's bed to muffle the siren and told her to cover her one good ear - this scene lasted until the fire dept arrived

another resident's spouse came into the hall and pulled a bottle out of his pocket and said look, he bought mj for the first time in 60 years, hoping it will calm his wife and increase her appetite - if it wasn't for the munchies, it was sounding like a good idea 😹😹😹

It's Frick's bday so I made a video clip of the Viking singing to him much to her dislike

she likes to rhyme and added a new verse to the familiar
happy birthday to you
happy birthday go screw 🙀

Then she ended her message with
I'm going to heaven
Which was odd since all during lunch she was telling anyone who looked at her to go to hell

MsMadge, when are you bringing out your Hoca version of One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest? Every time I read an update, I'm laughing but with tears in my eyes.

Finally it wasn't me behaving badly. I saw an Instagram post where the nurse in the M.C. put up a picture of a Skelton looking through blinds in an office. It reads "A family member lurking at the nurses station. You ask them so they need anything and the answer is no. So annoying! " Haha suck it sister! We are watching. you sit there on your fat azz looking at the computer and chatting! Can't wait now to go lurk lol!!!

If they spy on you all the time does that make 'em a Lurker?Or just a weirdo?

A lurker, a spy, or a weirdo, by any name, they need to get a life.

However, the opportunities for behaving badly abound, if they are secretly watching you.

While preparing dinner, you can drop their food on the floor, put it back on their plate.

I have to admit I lurked on the forum a long time before jumping in, and I've found another forum where I lurk too. It's an off shoot of a topic that has nothing to do with my life so I wouldn't be welcome, but they have such interesting conversations there.

You are always welcome here Cwillie!
Not much to say on the "interesting" part, but your contributions are always interesting, as are your jokes.
I don't think that I am alone thinking it best to be holding back on some of the comments I would like to make on behalf of getting along with others in general.

So, just because I might be holding back, no need for everyone else to hold back.
It is, afterall, Friday night.

Isn't that fiesta night at hoca Ms Madge?
Or did the staff do away with that too?

I wish they did - it's more like Friday night fight night now 😠

So I didn't behave badly but I had a good laugh yesterday. Hubs was phoning our cable provider to try to change our t.v. lineup. He had the guy on speaker phone. Hubs says "hi, who am I speaking with?" Guy answers "Jason" Hubs says "hi Jason, this is (insert name) calling from home.

I don't know why but this just struck me as so hilarious. I started laughing that uncontrollable laugh you do sometimes when you start to pee your pants. It been happening a lot lately. These fits of laughter. Things have just been striking me as funny lately. The heat maybe?

The other day too. Hubs was sweeping the balcony. He does every thing at warp speed. He looked insane. Yep, I peed my pants again. :)

I'll probably need to stock up on panties if this keeps happening.

Gershun, Anne Tyler called that "laughing herself boneless" - her description made me laugh myself boneless. It's when if you're standing up you do literally start staggering around, helpless.

And it gets even worse when nobody else can see what's so funny.

Quite often I'm laughing by myself CM. My older brother used to say "there she goes"

Funny, when we went to Ireland I noticed lots of people doing this so maybe I come by it honestly on my mom's side.

On the news:
The doorbell licker is back!

A snake was recorded sliding across a door, licking the doorbell.

Ring, ring.

Ding dong.

Hardly anyone "gets" my jokes, so I am often laughing by myself.

But then, I start to worry a bit if someone does get my humor.
Are they ok?

What's more embarrassing ?

accidently snorting when laughing or tooting when coughing ?
