My fav bingo line of all time is the old girl being hauled out on the stretcher after having a heart attack yelling "WATCH MY CARDS!!!!" to her
friend as they were wheeling her out of there.
You don't EVEN fuck with the bingo ladies. You mind me now dmb. |

Oh god - does the old folks home have a beauty salon so you can get her helmet hair done once a week? Cause if you don't sign her up for that - you know
she'll let it go at least 2 weeks at a time. I cringe each time I see an old biddy with the sleep spot on the back of their hair. If they can't see the
back - no one else can!

My mother was in assisted living for awhile. Get to know the nurses. They're your best link to getting them better care. Don't be afraid to bring the
staff cookies, or in your case, Starbucks cards. And the more you visit, the better they're taken care of. The staff knows you'll be around, and
won't let poor Auntie lay on the floor for many hours at a time.
Maybe you could talk to the bingo caller. If your aunt wins again, she could win some new duds. Like a stylish pantsuit. Slip the guy a fiver, I'm sure he'd be up for it. Shall I send you a lucky bingo troll? |

Well, since she won't buy new clothes, my ma left some out for her to use until the movers get here. Wearing the same clothes for 2 weeks is my aunt's
way of saying "i do what i want, when i want". this isn't anything new with her either, she's always been like this.

Is that the red visor society, some bizarre spin off branch of the red hat ladies?

hey, i'm elderly dammit!!!!
i bought the wrong depends. i guess she was waiting for my mom to take her shopping today. she got confused. there was no plan to be picked up for shopping today, there is pizza tonight (she's here now). she got really mad at my mom, so i got her a little calendar thing, so she can keep track. senility sucks. |

The best part is that for years to come she'll be telling everyone how you made her wear dirty clothes and go without medication for weeks when you forced
her into that hell-hole.
The story isn't complete until she's blamed you. Kimbob the Waiting |

She won't use the calendar, dmb. We did that for gramma, plus do the reminder note thing....she doesn't read em. Except a grudge, she'll
remember that.
