The Cozy Corner

I wish I had started my mowing and weed eating before it got hot. Time to get sweaty. Keep the shenanigans at a maximum while I’m gone.

We make no promises...

My mum has dementia. It is a cruel illness.
In and out of hospital for falls along with the memory loss

I wish you all the luck that your dad's assessment is okay and it's just natural old age

It’s such a cruel disease. My mom has early onset dementia and it has gotten very bad. I know the hardships.

Well, since we're sharing --

We just got the news this morning that my dad's bladder cancer is advanced. He's going to see a specialist in April and I'm pretty sure they will be removing his bladder... if they will let them.

Fingers are crossed for everyone here.

Many to @EyesOnHers @rick_j21 @ScarletDaisy and everyone else dealing with this heavy shit! I know of some places for online support if anyone's interested (Discord, Facebook, & Reddit groups)

Both of my grandmother's. With my dad's mom it actually made her dying easier because she didn't know who i was for several years. So I had time to grieve before she finally died.

Now my mom is starting to show signs and refuses the tests.

Every time I draw a blank on something I start to wonder now.

Oh, it's so tough when they're stubborn about it! I'm sorry you're dealing with that. And I'm right there with you on the personal memory problems. I keep telling myself that it's just peri, but I always wonder...

So... I did this

That looks amazing!!! How was it? Does it have a good crumb structure? (I have no idea what that means, I've just picked it up from years of watching British Bake Off!)

In happy parent getting old news, my father's glaucoma doesn't seem to be getting worse. Next up: neurologist!

And in even better news - I made it to Trader Joe's today so I'm stocked up on beer & wine!

Well, I'm sure Paul Hollywood would tell me exactly what was wrong with it, but I sliced into one and it looked pretty. With butter, it was really good (what isn't?).

I'm off to a lunch, but I'll get a picture of the final product when I'm back home.

I tried to sue Winnie for taking my outfit choice, but I decided to be a good sport and let him roll with it.

I finally feel good with what I have gotten done and plan to relax

I grew up in Atlanta. I always called them all cokes. What kind of coke do you want?

Now I call them soda.
