P...All I know is I don't ever want to get old. Perhaps contrary to what our daughter might tell you, I think we're doing a pretty good job of holding our own on that front but, lordy, if I ever get to the point where I'm making other people uncomfortable or put-upon, please just shoot me.<br /><br />I think it's hard to see our parents aging because they've always been the "big people", the "strong ones" in our lives. To see them reverting back to acting like two or three year olds is so hard. Sigh. They tolerated us when we were 2 or 3 so maybe we have to tolerate them when they exhibit such characteristics in aging.<br /><br />P.S.

Maybe they'll forget us...<br /><br />Charade - That's interesting. I will have to pay more attention to what they're eating, although my mother is the queen of balanced meals.

My dad's crankiness was corrected, though, when we found out he was malnourished in spite of fixing himself three squares a day. Seems he was getting too many nightshades and filling up on bread he was making in his bread machine nearly every other day. Good luck to you all.Charadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16461603001722068211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030352031960855220.post-58005057599236349822012-05-14T14:22:43.112-04:002012-05-14T14:22:43.112-04:00I almost did a circle-back to the dining table thi...I almost did a circle-back to the dining table this past week also! I always feel terrible when my Stepdad pays because I KNOW that the tip is going to be pathetic, if not insulting. But I had DD in tow, anticipating a trip to the park (which I HAD just promised) and no good "reason" to go back inside. <br /><br />Ugh.Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14436557172029575513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4030352031960855220.post-45897263289749459092012-05-14T13:50:15.142-04:002012-05-14T13:50:15.142-04:00LOL!

It's so hard to see, and even harder to know how to handle it.
