Grandma Drives Me Crazy. Growing old isn't fun, but it can be funny. Grandma’s nuggets of wisdom. Daily Archives: June 9, 2014. June 9, 2014. Grandma and I channel Cheech & Chong. Ever feel like you’re stuck in a Cheech and Chong/Groundhog Day. You’re probably asking yourself what any of this has to do with caring for Grandma. Well, as I said I heard this tape. 8220;Grandma, what did you do with your lunch? 8221; I ask. 8220;Well I ate it! 8221; she replies. 8221; I ask. I ask again. “The hospi...8220;Fo...

10,000 hours in the octogenarian trenches | Grandma Drives Me Crazy
https://grandmadrivesmecrazy.wordpress.com/2014/06/04/10000-hours-in-the-octogenarian-trenches
Grandma Drives Me Crazy. Growing old isn't fun, but it can be funny. Grandma’s nuggets of wisdom. June 4, 2014. 10,000 hours in the octogenarian trenches. Cute and cuddly, old and wrinkly. Appearance aside, these two people are nothing alike. Ten thousand hours. That’s supposedly the amount of time you have to spend at something to master it. These are a few of my observations:. Childhood is finite — old age can go on indefinitely. Children learn new skills — old people forget theirs. Or removing her sho...

The quest to bathe Grandma | Grandma Drives Me Crazy

Grandma Drives Me Crazy. Growing old isn't fun, but it can be funny. Grandma’s nuggets of wisdom. August 6, 2013. The seen cannot be unseen. The quest to bathe Grandma. It may not qualify as Herculean, but it’s no small feat getting Grandma to take a shower. Brave Perseus beheaded Medusa. A laundry list of tasks stood between Jason and the golden fleece. And Odysseus had to squeak by Scylla. Charybdis to get that gig named after him. I’d bought myself time, but I couldn’t enjoy the day with t...8221; Gra...

Grandma Drives Me Crazy. Growing old isn't fun, but it can be funny. Grandma’s nuggets of wisdom. Author Archives: "The War Department". January 22, 2015. Cloud hidden, whereabouts unknown. Grandma on the picket line, fighting for workers’ rights. I’m so proud of the work she did and forever grateful for helping me my whole life. Well I’m taking some time with my quiet friend. Well I’m takin’ some time on my own. Well I’m makin’ some plans for my getaway. There’ll be blue skies shining up above. If you&#...

Hooray for hospice | Grandma Drives Me Crazy
https://grandmadrivesmecrazy.wordpress.com/2013/11/22/hooray-for-hospice
Grandma Drives Me Crazy. Growing old isn't fun, but it can be funny. Grandma’s nuggets of wisdom. November 22, 2013. Nobody knows what the future holds. But for now, hospice is making life infinitely better for Grandma and me. More than once this year, Grandma has mentioned how lonely she is. She’s lost the ability to read or write emails; even the phone confuses her now. When friends send her a card and I read it to her, she has no idea who sent it. The nurse even gets her prescriptions delivered. T...

Grandma Drives Me Crazy. Growing old isn't fun, but it can be funny. Grandma’s nuggets of wisdom. Daily Archives: September 29, 2013. September 29, 2013. Out of sight, out of mind. This lamp is not only heavy and hideous, it could be a fire hazard. I can’t in good conscience donate it to Savers, can I? This post was inspired by the WordPress Daily Prompt. Is there junk in my life? I have a basement full of old, broken, unused crap. But guess what? It’s not mine. Or do I start getting rid of stuff now?
