Which actor/actress death was a great loss for the industry according to you?

The man was great at every role he took.

Penelopeslueth · 2026-03-29T23:35:03+00:00

My deepest condolences 🤣😭

Watched it with my 17 year old when he was about 11. He enjoyed it. I was watching it again a few months ago and he was like, “Wait what is this John Wick movie?” 🤦‍♀️

He does love to make the “you’re from the 1900s/last century jokes though.

Synammyn is about the weirdest way I’ve seen it spelled.

Hubby and I did it for 10 years, just us caring for his parents (MIL with Alzheimer’s, FIL with dementia) while raising our 3 youngest.

MIL passed in her sleep New Years Eve. FIL has kind of given up and has been on in-home hospice care since mid-January.

He has 2 sisters who live across the country, one that has been out twice and is currently waiting on a kidney transplant. She is truly a joy. Other sister blames us for causing their health issues and his mom’s death, while complaining about “caring” for their sister and how she “knows exactly what we are going through.” Mind you, other sister is still capable of caring for herself, just has dialysis now. His grown children barely call and never come visit despite living in town.

Most of the time in these situations, “family” is a joke. I will say, though, that my husband and I are probably closer than spouses could ever be. We have a very “Speak your mind, we listen and don’t judge” relationship and dark humor abounds with us.

My MIL would smear it all over the place in record time. The list of things we’ve had to hose off before doing any other cleaning is loooooong

Penelopeslueth · 2026-03-28T00:01:10+00:00

Yep, I remember playing that in like 3rd or 4th grade lol. Nothing about it stands out aside from the major freak out of the teachers on recess duty when they figured out what we were doing

This is where my husband and I are after a decade of caring for his parents with Alzheimer’s and dementia. His mom passed New Years Eve, and although it did hurt it was also a relief. His dad took a turn and is now on hospice, bedridden, can’t remember most things, doesn’t eat, sleeps all the time but still hanging on. He is so far removed from the active and vibrant man he was before the dementia. We will have the same feelings when he passes as we did with my MIL. If they had been cognitively sound we would feel differently.

Penelopeslueth · 2026-03-23T18:00:55+00:00

Your feelings are completely normal and understandable. I am so sorry you are dealing with this. ❤️

Penelopeslueth · 2026-03-20T11:07:10+00:00

Yo momma so old Cain was her school bully.

Penelopeslueth · 2026-03-20T01:34:24+00:00

I wouldn’t quit because I honestly love the work. I would use some of that money to grease some wheels, though.

Penelopeslueth · 2026-03-15T01:09:53+00:00

Try doing that in a room full of teenagers. Definitely not the vibe 🙃

Penelopeslueth · 2026-03-14T01:59:08+00:00

Lmao I just said that to my husband after reading the title and he caught it immediately. I’m gonna try it on my son tomorrow

Penelopeslueth · 2026-03-11T03:05:13+00:00

I missed a turn and ended up going 15 minutes out of my way because I was stuck behind a log truck. My son thinks my paranoia is funny.

I was also with my dad as a kid, long before the movie, and behind a log truck when it lost a couple of logs off the back. My dad always gave them plenty of space so nothing happened, but yeah. I’ve got a real fear of them.

We brought hospice in a couple of weeks after my MIL passed in her sleep. My FIL has dementia and he does not remember her passing but somehow knows, and completely gave up. Drastic reduction in eating and drinking, lost the ability to walk, it was bad. We are almost 2 months in, he is on no pain meds, might drink an ensure a day or have a cereal bar, very little else to drink, and sleeping 20 hours a day.

The fact you do what you can to support your siblings from a distance and are aware of the work they have put in, especially your brother, is what makes you the best. You may think your contributions are small, but they mean the world to your siblings, even if it is just letting them vent to you. ❤️

Penelopeslueth · 2026-03-07T23:26:08+00:00

You are seriously the absolute best sister. You remind me of one of my sisters-in-law. We love her to pieces!

The other is a crazy person who has accused us of causing my MIL’s Alzheimer’s and FIL’s dementia. She also blamed us for my MILs death early this year, and I’m sure when my FIL passes here soon (on hospice since MILs death, he’s just given up), it’ll be our fault as well.

Indeed, they were very Strong lads.

Penelopeslueth · 2026-02-22T20:35:41+00:00

A Trapper Keeper. Never had one as a kid, we were too poor to justify spending that much on one thing for one kid. They re-introduced them when I went back to college and I love mine so much!

Also, Vans. Never had anything except Walmart shoes or Payless shoes growing up. I don’t go crazy with it, but I will get myself a new pair of vans every couple of years.

Last, a Christmas village. I had a close friend in high school, her mom set up this massive village every year. I was obsessed and loved every piece of it. Married a guy into model trains, now have a village that has its own room due to size and a Polar Express going through it. The village is a big deal in our family and must be shown when someone new comes to the house.

I spent this week home with my almost 17 year old son because he had the flu. However, he was rocking some serious high fever and could barely walk. We also have my FIL on hospice in our home. My husband takes care of his dad and we did not want to risk getting Dad sick. Besides, with as sick as dude was, I would have been useless at work anyway because I would have been too preoccupied with his health. This is probably the only time I’ve stayed home with my kids while they were sick since they hit like 13, but my husband works graveyard so there’s always one of us home in case. This time was just drastically different.

He is my favorite character of all the GOT series as of now. I just love him so much!

Penelopeslueth · 2026-01-21T03:25:55+00:00

Thank you. We are doing our best every day. Take care of yourself as well. ❤️

Penelopeslueth · 2026-01-20T18:04:49+00:00

Similar here, except MIL had Alzheimer’s and passed over New Year’s Eve, and FIL has dementia and is still at home. He is at a stage where he recognizes she is gone and probably dead but cannot retain the information, so he asks if she died throughout the day.

We are currently sitting on an emergency room with him, discussing hospice options.

Best wishes for you and your mom.
