====================
Hi Ruth,

->  RH> ears scream after half an hour.

-> I don't have trouble with hurting ears as I don't bother with earrings
-> at all. Usually a necklace and ring (on the right hand) to go with my
-> gold rings on the left hand, glasses, watch and Medic Alert bracelet.

 RH> The watch and glasses are my standard uniform.  I don't usually wear
 RH> earrings either, but once in a while they're required.

I've never had them required so don't own any.

->  RH> I've never anything much stick in a slow-cooker, but I suppose it
->  RH> could.

-> It could, if cooked long enough. I like the set and forget feature of a
-> crock pot but if I'm making chili or something of that sort, it gets a
-> stir every so often. I've also used the liners but am not that over all
-> impressed with them; they also don't come in a baby crock pot size.

 RH> I think I tried them precisely once.  Couldn't be bothered again.

I've used them a few times, best that can be said is that the clean up
job is generally easier. That is, unless someone dumps the liner, with
contents into the pot, thus defeating the whole purpose of the liner.

-> -> We'll all have to die some time, by food poisoning or other causes.

->  RH> Unless you're named Enoch of course.

-> Don't know many of those, even in a town with a seminary.

 RH> Or Elijah.

Or Moses.

->  RH> My neighbors are about at that point too.  It's not fun, but it's
->  RH> better than a nursing home.

-> Better to be in your comfort zone than in a strange place--for the most
-> part. We've a friend who's mom resisted a nursing home for years but
-> once she moved in, she was glad she did. A number of her former co
-> workers were also residents in the same home. Bobbi usually went down
-> every morning to help her mom (and others) with breakfast and popped in
-> during the day if possible. Mom passed away this past spring.

 RH> Sounds like she landed in a good spot.  A friend is going through that
 RH> with his mother now.  He's running into all kinds of red tape getting
 RH> her moved into a home.

Mom was moved in with a minimal amount of red tape--admitted to the
hospital with a mild case of pnuemonia and a spot came open in the care
facility about the time she improved to the point where she would have
otherwise been discharged. Paperwork went thru fast, one advantage of a
small town where everybody knows everybody else. Dad just couldn't take
care of her at home; even tho it's hard on both of them, this was for
the good of both of them.
