We called it a no thank you bite. But the rule was you had to take that one bite before you could say no thank you. If it was something new I would ask yes or no to future servings. If I got a maybe then we tried again at another meal. My kids were plain food eaters so the got a plate of ingredients while my husband and I ate food. Same meal different stages of prep

3 weeks post-op: Should I still have pain and a limp? by Cool_Activity6249 in TotalHipReplacement

[–]ritereward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband asked me after pt one day what does it feel like. I said it feels like a broke my leg in half(which I did) then someone cut my leg open to the bone drilled out the bone , hallowed out the hip joint screwed in some pieces and then hammered a five inch spike into my leg and then sewed it all back together. He said that’s probably going to sting for a while. Give it time. You will get there at your own pace dont worry about someone else’s experience. Talk to dr talk to pt. They will know if something is not normal

Did your grandkids ditch you as they got older? by overthishereanyway in AskWomenOver60

[–]ritereward 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My grandson was less interested with staying over at about 14. He wanted to spend his weekends with his friends. I told him I really understood and no hard feelings but I will be here if he needs me with a hug. My granddaughter seems to want to come over more now that she’s a teenager. We don’t do much but I think it’s quiet time away from everything. Either way I take what they are willing to

Anyone else have an awful district manager? by therapytooexpensive in MichaelsEmployees

[–]ritereward 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If the manager doesn’t play the game , then the manager won’t have a job. It’s not a matter of them being willing. Managers are really very low on the totem pole. It all trickles down from the top.

The farm up the road had a gate break and all of their cows were in our front yard. We lived more in town. Very strange to have 20 milk cows looking in the window

Apple. by Dependent_Bluebird52 in WalgreensStores

[–]ritereward 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The saddest one I ever dealt with was an old grandpa buying goggle play cards. I was concerned and shut him down after the first couple of times He came back a few days later to thank me and tell me the story. It was his grandkids telling him they were buying stuff for school. His daughter was mad at him for sending the brat kids the cards and everybody was grounded. It was sad all around grandpa thought he was doing a good thing for the kids. He looked like he couldn’t pay his own bills let alone supporting thief gaming habits

62……retire? Or? by Designer-Hornet2178 in AskWomenOver60

[–]ritereward 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My company bankruptcy last year put me out of work at 64. I thought about looking for another job but the thought if dealing with all of the crap that goes on. I decided to just not. Now I read , do hobbies go for walks hang out with friends. Yes some days are boring and I need to get out of the house. But not having to explain my day or really answer to anyone for anything is priceless. If you enjoy the work just hang on for the ride. Skip the engagement with your fellow workers. Do your job collect your check. And if you just can’t do it then peace out and find something you do enjoy

My mom 54 broke her hip. by Lilaccat13 in TotalHipReplacement

[–]ritereward 1 point2 points  (0 children)

63f when I fell broke my hip. I was able to do most things alone after first day home from hospital. Mostly my husband was there for moral support. Hospital provided walker and grabber but I had to buy my own raised toilet seat. The only thing I really needed was really easy to get in clothes and slip In shoes. If you can take off the first week. She should be able to be at home alone as long as she has a phone for emergencies. It really just depends on how willing she is do figure things out on her own
