Funeral Date Set Before Death
LadyKay replied to LadyKay's topic in Relationships, Pets & Domestic Homelife
I may not have gotten the whole story. But from what I was told was that his mother died like 3 times and they kept brining her back. Still though I would think that one would have to be dead at less 24hrs before a date would be sit. I am not in anyway passing judgment upon their family. It is just that this is something I never heard of before. In my family, everyone seems to hold out hope that the person will pull through no matter how close to death they can be. They accept that the death is going to happen but still hold out a bit of hope that they will somehow pull through. So given my family background to set a date before someone really dies is something I have never heard of before. But I can see I guess if they call the family and say "grandma isn't going to make it till morning so we need to start arranging things" Everyone one is different. -
Well This Is Just Freaken Dandy !
LadyKay replied to LadyKay's topic in Relationships, Pets & Domestic Homelife
I don't see why she wouldn't know. I pack it every morning and I tell her "here is your lunch". I'm not really mad at her about it. I am mad at the school for knowingly letting her run up a lunch bill without me knowing about it. -
I've been packing my child's lunch for school so I would not have to pay for her lunch. As it turns out, the school has allowed her to buy school lunch even though she has no money in her school lunch account. So today I get a bill in the mail from the school for unpaid school lunches. I called the school and let them know I am most unhappy about this! But of corse they want payment anyway! Then they tell me they should not allowed her to charge lunches like that! But I still have to pay the bill! I cant win! No matter what I do I can't win! Now I own the freaken school money! And I said what was the point of me packing her lunch since I am going to end up paying anyway?

I don't know how others think but this seems very odd to me. This guy I know his mother has been very sick and not expected to live. From what I heard she was expected to die someday last week ( I cant remember what day they said) So the family went ahead and set the funeral date for Friday. Except the women did not die until Saturday. Now a lot of family members are unable to attend the funeral because they are from out of state and needed to be back to work on Monday. So they are going to cremate her and have a memorial service sometime later on this year. This struck me as very odd. I have never heard of anyone setting a funeral date before someone has dies. Even if you know they are not going to pull through. I mean why would they do that?

My mother lives in Ohio. She bought some insurance from an insurance company through their insurance agent. The guys keeps calling her wanted her to buy more insurance. When he can't get ahold of her, he calls me leaving messages on my cell phone pleading that he really needs to talk to my mother like it is the end of the world if he doesn't get in touch with her and could I please get ahold of her for him! I live in another state! To me it's just creepy like he is stalking her or something. I don't know why I am being pulled into this? The first time he called me trying to track down my mother I got very upset as I thought something had happen to her. My mother tells me the guy is a real pain and one of the reason why she deiced to spend her holiday in Florida this year was to get away from him. To me I get a creepy feeling about it. Is this sort of thing normal with insurance companies?

Since you posted this I have been thinking about my childhood home. It now sits empty. Ever since my mother sold it .Anyone who moves into it moves out within a year. I have said that I think my father is haunting the place. But actually now that I think about it, there were some strange things that happen. I can remember my mother waking up in the middle of the night swearing that there where ghost in her bedroom and that she heard things. If you were home by yourself, you would sometimes hear someone as clear as day call your name. As if they were in the next room. My mother told my father about this and my father said to never answer them back as it was bad luck. This would happen to me at times when I was home alone. I knew I was alone in the house but I would hear someone as clear as day call my name. I would never answer back.

My husband's cousin has been living with a women for like 10 years. The women has a daughter who was 3 years old when they met and moved in with him. The daughter is now 13 years old and calls her mother's boyfriend "dad". Since he was the only father she has ever known. Last month he broke up with this women and she and her daughter moved out of the house. He went off to Vegas and got married to some women he had been dating for like 3 months. I don't really care but I feel bad for the 13 year old girl. She has always seen him as her father and now he is gone. She is a very nice young girl and always came over for holidays with him and always called him dad. That's got to be a hard thing to deal with at the age of 13.

I Probably Shouldn't Post This
LadyKay replied to LadyKay's topic in Relationships, Pets & Domestic Homelife
I never thought of that. And I am afraid of heights -
Have you ever been way up high on a building and looked down. And think to yourself, "just one step, and everything would be over?"

I Want To Leave Michigan
LadyKay replied to LadyKay's topic in Relationships, Pets & Domestic Homelife
I thank you all for taking the time to hear me. My mother called me today to tell me she was in Florida playing BINGO. I tried to sound cheerful. There just has to be a better way to live then this. -
I have liked living here for the past 14 years. But with the on going money issues and the lack of work I feel I am at my wits end. I have no family here and few friends that I can turn too. I feel I no longer belong here. Or maybe I never did belong here. I don't know why I am telling you all this. Maybe I need someone to talk to? For the past 3 years my house has been in some state of foreclosure. I want out from under it all. I feel I am stuck in the endless cycle. I just want a "normal" life where I do not have to fear being kicked out of my house or dread the months ahead. It has been nothing but a struggle here. Right now I feel like just selling off everything I have except for some personal items and moving back to my home state where my family is. I don't know what else to do really. I wake up every morning and feel as though I want to die. Why does everything have to suck so much?

Not sure if this is what you're looking for but I will share it anyway. When I was around 11 years old my grandfather died unexpectedly. I spent most of my childhood staying with my grand parents. The house they lived in had a mud room off of the kitchen. The door to the kitchen from this room was always closed to keep the cold air out of the house. My grandfather alway came into the house through the back door into the mud room. He would sit down in the chair, take off his work boots and drop them to the floor. Before coming into the kitchen. Well, after he died for months me and my grandmother would hear the back door open and the sound of someone dropping their boots on the floor. I got upset at this but grandma just said "that's just your grandpa taking off his boots." It went on for months sometimes once day sometimes two or three times a day. Then after a while it just stopped and we didn't hear it anymore. Also just before my grandfather died my mother bought her first new car. My grandfather had told my mother that he would like to take a ride in her new car. But he died before that could happen. About a week after he died my mother came home all hysterical and upset. She said she was driving home and looked in her rear view mirror and saw my grandfather sitting in the back sit of her car. She was so upset she said she almost crashed the car on the way home.

There's a new cutest cat on the Internet
LadyKay replied to TronRP's topic in Relationships, Pets & Domestic Homelife
Yeah grumpy cat looks like me if i was a cat. -
My daughter's school sent home a letter about Halloween costumes. It states no bloody, gory, inappropriate costumes that depict fighting or death. What the heck? Why even bother having a Halloween party? I have already bought my daughter's costume. She wants to be Darth Vader (she loves Darth Vader). Now a week before the party the school sends this letter home. I say screw it. My daughter is going to be Darth Vader just as she wanted. I mean no gory, bloody, death or fighting would pretty much cover most Halloween costumes that kids want to be.

Hey all I hope this isn't too personal to ask. But have any of you notice your electric bill being higher then normal? I know it was a hot summer, but for almost 4 months our electric bill has been around $300.00. In the past it ran around $170-$180. I have stop using the dishwasher and only keep 1 or 2 lights on in the house. Don't know what else I can do except turn everything off and sit in the dark.

I know this is being made out as a joke and some people don't think it is serious. But my take on the matter is I find it rather disheartening that Romney thinks that cutting funding to PPS will get us out of debt. From my understanding of things, the amount of government funds that is given to PPS is minuscule. Compared to government funding else where. When Romney said he was going to cut PPS funding, that is saying to me that this is a guy who really does not have real plan about how to go about getting the country out of debt. He is just saying he is going to do this and that and it all sounds so good. But I don't think he really knows how to put his ideals into action. When my daughter was pre-school age I could not afford to send her to preschool. I could not afford cable as well so we would watch PPS shows. The children programs helped my daughter learn her ABC's, colors, numbers, and even some small words. She knew all her letters, numbers, shapes, colors and could read some before she started kindergarden. I believe that the programs on PPS helped her with this. So I take what Romney said about PPS very seriously. There are other ways to get the US out of debt without cutting funding to education PPS. My 2 cents thank you very much!

For the past few months I have been having the same dream. Well, it's not actually the same dream , but the same things keep happing in every dream. I am at my grandmother's house (my grandmother died 14 years ago by the way) and there is something wrong with the pipes in the house. And water is flooding the up stairs bathroom, and pouring down from the ceiling to the room below. And it is up to me to somehow fix what is broken and try to stop the water. Except I never seem to be able to fix it right. It's just weird that I keep dreaming about this over and over again. It must mean something. When my grandmother was alive, I was the one who took care of all her problems and It was me who fixed everything.

Life Is What You Make It ?
LadyKay replied to LadyKay's topic in Relationships, Pets & Domestic Homelife
Well that's simple for me. I just freak out at everything! -
Life is what you make it? What the crap is this supposed to mean? My life has been a serious of unfortunate events beyond by control that has happen to me. Or problems that have been caused by someone else. Then people say to me "well life is what you make it!" I didn't make this life. It happen! Yeah I am kind of bitter this morning.
