'Soul Purpose'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Or it's possible that the pharmacy did contact the provider, and the provider said that Dad needed to come in for a checkup before they would refill the meds, and Dad never did it. And I really haven't kept track of his medical shit because I haven't been willing to take on that responsibility.
Once again my deep gratitude that my dad was VA eligible. One of the many aspects of care that they are very, very good at. We should all be so lucky.
I know that all of this elder care stuff is looming for me and my husband. Like, if it comes to the point that one or both of my parents need to move out of their house, where most of the living space is upstairs, are they going to refuse to do that? My mother went through it with her mother, and I know she learned some lessons from that, but it's easy to tell yourself you won't be that stubborn and not so easy to do it.
Unrelated, but at what point did Mike Mills turn into Hec? [link]
Heh! My hair's not that long currently but probably will be by summer's end. I wish I could sing his high harmonies and play bass as well.
Tep, I could be spitballing but I suspect that maybe, just maybe, there's a correlation between NOT taking Anti-Psychotic medicine and HAVING hallucinations. Maybe.
That has to be a huge relief though.
EM has been over this morning helping me catch up on papework and folding clothes and whatnot.
As much as I like Xmas lights around I'm getting itchy to Begin The Year In Earnest, so tree will be de-ornamented on Sunday night and taken down Monday morning while Matilda's at school.
I'm wishing all the sick people were getting well.
Oh! I need to poll the populace, as we are now in 2024 and I need to actively plan Jacqueline's memorial.
Originally I had just planned to do it on May 15th - our 20th wedding anniversary. But that's on a Wednesday, and I'm thinking I should just push it to that weekend.
Some folks have mentioned their intent to fly in for her memorial, it seems like Saturday (May 18th) would be the optimal date to accommodate travelers. Maybe people coming in on Thurs or Fri for an informal Buffista F2F kinda thing.
Thoughts?
I will be there no matter what.

My primal scream joins yours in a glorious cacophony.

Whaaaaaat.

It is a relief, but a provisional relief, to be revised after 2-3 weeks of the meds back in his system. But I'm choosing to be optimistic and believe that since the meds worked before, they'll work again.

Tim's niece is getting married in May, in a huge 3-day Indian wedding extravaganza. I'm 95% sure it's happening Memorial Day weekend, so assuming that's correct, I could make it out for the memorial.
Blocking that week.
I don’t know how fast acting psychotics are compared to say antidepressants, but hopefully you see some impact soon and have a better sense if anything else is going on.
*Anti-psychotics, that is. Though I suppose I don’t really know how fast acting psychotics are either. Pretty quick I imagine, though quick at what I don’t know.

Whooo boy. I didn't think I'd ever see my large Catholic family outdone in a wedding, but when my cousin married an Indian man, I learned my lesson. So much food. Constant food. Dancing, then more food. If you like Indian food, you're in for a good time.
Indian wedding sounds like lots of fun!
I would come for that weekend for JZ.
Today is slow and I really don’t want to be doing work. I have a few things I should be doing but…the last couple days were busy with catching up and now I’m not AS busy and yuck.
Teppy I hope a couple weeks on meds will make a big difference!! Good luck.
My parents were terrible about sorting through their things but pretty good about agreeing to move when they needed (their old place was all one level, so not a problem, but none of us lived near them anymore).
