Maybe if I try small-sized salads and have them just once in a while, I might avoid my chewing issues.

It sound...River: I need armour that exact size too! It sounds like we are a similar shape :)<br /><br />Elephant's Child: I wish I liked salad more. One issue I have is chewing it - I have TMJ and my jaw gets sore. I also tend to bite the inside of my lip on one side when I eat anything I have to chew a lot. Both of those things make it unpleasant to eat it. I've started having homemade vegetable soup instead (in the winter). What do you have in your salads?<br /><br />Diane: Yeah, I was disappointed to find that the dog memes were not what they were held out to be. And feel guilty for not investigating before I posted them. I'm glad you enjoyed today's memes though :)<br /><br />Doug: Your last line was bang on. I feel for Zsuzs with an ill cat - it's such a worry. It always makes me feel like there's a rock in my stomach when a pet is ill. I hope the medication gets things back to normal. Keep me updated?<br /><br />Andrew: I've never heard either of those aphorisms, so I'd be the person your malaphor would blow past without effect! <br /><br />e: Chuckles are good! I feel good when other people enjoy these :)<br /><br />Joan: Just to clarify, the pictures of dogs on trampolines were not in fact pictures of dogs on trampolines; they were pictures of dogs that were in the middle of a drop from their owners' arms to a padded surface. Those are the ones I'm objecting to. The video of dogs actually on trampolines seemed okay. I don't think my writing on this was overly clear :) lol. And I think the advice you read is so right. It's very difficult because I hear the same stories every day, often multiple times in one short visit, and I see my mother seven days a week. When she stays over at my house, the number is of course even higher. Being an introvert, I find continual conversation tiring to start with, but having this extra twist to the conversation makes it unbearable at times. Still, the alternative is worse, because it makes the whole situation worse. Thank you for your good wishes. They are a comfort.<br /><br />Charlotte: Glad to amuse you! I like learning new words but unless I use them often I tend to forget them. I'm going to try to remember this one, though.<br /><br />Steve: Yes, we did :) I paid special attention to dog-owners' comments because I figured they'd have more experience. It bothers me that the author of the book tried to paint the whole project as harmless. The dogs being dropped did not look delighted to me. I'm glad you liked the dog noses in the first photo as much as I did! <br /><br />37p: I don't feel like I did good. Mediocre, maybe :) But thank you for the encouragement!<br /><br /><br /> jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-39178117304339720652022-02-08T13:05:03.095-04:002022-02-08T13:05:03.095-04:00A dash of clash!

After all how does a dog know how to start bouncing? If they were on a trampoline they must have been dropped to start them off.<br /><br />Your relationship with your Mother sounds a bit like mine with my Mother. I always looked forward to seeing her when we visited each other, but after a day or so we got on each other's nerves. Saying that I would love to have those times back. I'll never forget reading an article in a magazine once in how you should react to an elderly person when they did or said things that annoy you eg repeating the same story over and over and the answer to that was to act like it was the first time you'd heard it, just to make them feel good. The article said that you must have patience and understanding of who they have become. It's difficult and a lot of tongue biting, but in order to keep your sanity and peace between the two of you it's worth trying. Good luck with that.<br /><br />Take care Jenny.<br />Joan (Devon)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-16943091671044730362022-02-08T06:31:31.619-04:002022-02-08T06:31:31.619-04:00Chuckling and sending hugs!Chuckling and sending hugs!ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11376645220662546020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-86670504922357953822022-02-08T04:33:50.279-04:002022-02-08T04:33:50.279-04:00Armoured to give a cat a pill is good.
