Well soft foods a lot of the time aren't filling, so I made so it foods work.

Still debating going back to Wow, don't really want to though.

Make Them Laugh

Johnnie...hope it all works out for you...eating soft foods isn't fun

ETA Chris.... CeCe/ a fine mess.... says she will do a celebration Banner for our 19th Anniversary Celebration. So you can PM her a picture when you find a good one....

Chris

Johnnie - cutting your food into smaller pieces to make it easier to chew is easily doable

Dave - okay, thanks. What would everybody like to see in the banner?

Still waiting for a winner to be announced in the US election. Hard to believe that it's so close.

Johnnie

Yeah, puddings, ice cream and jello not very filling. Mac and cheese isn't too bad.

Make Them Laugh

Johnnie...Ice cream is filling for me Mac N Cheese is good...also mashed potatoes with bits of whatever mean you want to use is good...like a shepperds pie

Mean? think mean meat eh

LAndlady's dad is going home today between the hospital and Parkwood believe it was approx a month related to the stroke of recovery/rehab

We are keeping the dogs for a bit longer cause from what I understand is he was using a walker while at Parkwood where not sure if that was hospital too cause she wasn't able to visit him there

Make Them Laugh

yea Sarah...or lean mean meat....

OK Sarah...we hope your landlady's dad recovers quickly

In the USA ...if you are in a hospital for a month or longer... I think they take away Social security and any government assistance away for that month. I'm not sure what the USA laws are if Seniors and Disabled people lose their government benefits if it's over 6 months or longer. So I hope your landladys father is still getting whatever government assistance he's getting while in hospital

crash landing

Thanks

Well technically he was in the hospital itself for 2 weeks and almost 2 weeks in a "stroke rehab center" between the 2 it was almost a month

Make Them Laugh

Chris...do you know what the policies are in Canada regarding monthly government financial assistance and hospital/ nursing home extended stays??

Sarah...keep us updated if you want and glad you still have to dogs because i know you love having them around

Tracey...does your team play or did Europe go back into Lockdown?

crash landing

Landlady does too don't think she wants to give them back

Also wonder if she's going to try to get her dad to move into the house or not she's got a spare bedroom upstairs thanks to the one tenant moving out about a month ago

Make Them Laugh

Alex or I will be moving to Canada now we know there's a room available if her dad decides not to move in....

crash landing

Nah not that easy she'll keep it empty if he doesn't

Make Them Laugh

true...some house owners who rent out rooms like to keep one empty for emergencies of some kink

crash landing

she was going to keep it empty in case the previous tenant runs into trouble cause she gets disability but started working a job and once she got up to like 4-5 days weekly decided to rent a bachelor apartment so think she still gets probably half disability along with employment earnings so it's probably tight for her but can understand her wanting her own place

Chris

Dave - what? Mom's broken her hip 3 times and been in the hospital for an extended period and there was no change in her benefits. She spent almost 3 months in hospital waiting for a nursing home bed. After a few weeks when it was clear that she was there for her safety and not because she needed to be hospitalized, we were charged the rate for a nursing home stay, the same as she's being charged now for room and board, but no change in her benefits. However if you leave your nursing home accommodation for more than a month because you're hospitalized, you'll lose your bed in the nursing home. Although apparently they can fill out some paperwork to extend that if you'll be released from the hospital soon.
