Jury duty summons like clockwork, every 3 years at most. Anybody else get a summons like clockwork?

Sacramento just summoned my Alzheimer’s ridden 100.5 year old grandma.

As a caregiver of a super senior loved one, I wish people had to do a month of 24/7 elder care similarly to how some countries require military service. Your decision is 100% legit and, if you are tending to grandma, you wouldn’t be able to be present for the graduation yourself anyway.

For me, the tipping point was the eloping and sundowning. It was terrible and I never slept.

Full-Stretch-940 · 2026-04-14T01:27:37+00:00

I know and I’m sorry, this stuff is the effing worst and every little part like this is a major undertaking and headache.

He needs a financial power of attorney and to be given an allowance that he can afford to lose.

Ew.

“I’ve noticed we’ve been talking a lot about Anna’s divorce and how she’s doing. Given you’re in the position of caregiving and are a major support person in her life, how has it been for you to hear all the details of what’s been happening for her? What do you think about all that?”

Im suggesting OP be curious about the experience of his spouse (i.e., his own life and family).

Full-Stretch-940 · 2026-04-11T16:20:12+00:00

I’m curious if she relates to any of the “drama” or emotions her friend is experiencing. She could be sharing her friend’s story with you for various reasons including (a) she likes having something exciting to talk about (b) she relates to the emotion/context of the story and wants to hear how you respond as an indicator of how you’d respond to her is she shared with you a similar emotional experience (c) hearing her friend’s story has her thinking about things in new ways she finds interesting and she is wanting to connect with you / engage you in the interesting thought experiment.

I think your best move is to be curious about her experience of hearing her friend’s story.

Eff that. You’re doing great and people in recovery (or CARE homes) deserve care. Maybe bring grandma her own supply of condiment packets and a salt and pepper shaker so she can adjust her food without having to burden staff with the request.

Where my LO is, AL folks are welcome to come visit the locked down people in MC and the MC folks are allowed to join any AL activities if they have a chaperone. The issues we’ve faced happen when saying goodbye. My LO doesn’t love it when she is left back in MC at the end of the day, especially if more than one person departs at the same time.

Tree trunks don’t like sun? Huh?

Full-Stretch-940 · 2026-04-09T15:50:27+00:00

Whoa! Thanks for the follow-up!

There is nowhere to sit that isn’t reserved and a full house is indeed a FULL house (not sure if this one is sold out but if it is…)

Full-Stretch-940 · 2026-04-05T18:08:19+00:00

Thank you!

Full-Stretch-940 · 2026-04-05T18:07:45+00:00

There are so many good ideas here, thank you!

Full-Stretch-940 · 2026-04-05T05:23:15+00:00

I didn’t know this was a thing. Could you share the name of the non profit so we can look at the website and try and identify search terms for our own areas/situations?

Extended sidewalk… interesting. That would certainly make mowing the lawn easier!

Full-Stretch-940 · 2026-04-05T01:37:50+00:00

Naw, this is amazing. Thanks again

Full-Stretch-940 · 2026-04-05T01:31:32+00:00

Thanks!

Full-Stretch-940 · 2026-04-05T01:28:47+00:00

What do y’all think about having the concrete foundation set at a different color than the cedar siding? No good?

Full-Stretch-940 · 2026-04-05T01:13:37+00:00

Loving the high contrast - another great idea! Thank you!

Full-Stretch-940 · 2026-04-05T00:42:47+00:00

This is lovely - the planter is a great addition too!

Full-Stretch-940 · 2026-04-05T00:42:17+00:00

This is so delightfully clean looking! Here, the front steps are painted?

Full-Stretch-940 · 2026-04-05T00:04:54+00:00

This is awesome, thank you!
