General Discussion / Re: Looking Towards Spring in ...
Last post by MsJennJenn - September 08, 2025, 03:57:31 PMI've come to the conclusion Isaac that nobody caters to the necessary food requirements in hospitals or LTC facilities anymore. They either don't care, or don't have the staff to fund it.
I follow a lady on Threads, who has kidney issues plus diabetes so she cant eat any type of tomato based anything cus of the acidity, and they are constantly bringing her food she cant even eat. It breaks my heard that these elderly people in homes half of them don't even get fed a proper meal.
Hubbs and I discussed it and we won't put either of my parents or his grandma or his Dad in a home. Ever.
Monday again - sigh. lol

Last post by Lynx - September 08, 2025, 10:17:39 AMI've been at the hospital in Corinth all weekend anyway.
Hospital food in the south is... Southern. They give Dad a diabetic meal that has potatoes in it. Really? Also a southern yeast roll.
Breakfast is standard for the south. Scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, biscuits. The biscuits came from a freezer. I know this is the south, but are we trying to drum up business for the new cardiac wing? "Here, hope you enjoy it. See you soon..."

Last post by Roscoe - September 08, 2025, 03:25:43 AMShew. Just got in. Thought about Lynx when we were in his town, but didn't want to bother him knowing he was dealing with his father's illness. But brother you were in our thoughts. BTW, there is a little backwoods restaurant just east of Adamsville called "Earl's".... Dude, I WILL be back. Decor was old car/garage and food was automotive theme'd name...and was amazing.
My friends, The Weatherford's, were our hosts (Poplar Corner Pentecostal Church). They made us feel like royalty. I was scared I wouldn't have a voice to preach as I have been struggling with it thanks to the crud. I drank half a bear-shaped bottle of honey and half a bottle of lemon juice, mixed together and heated, to try to fix the issue. IT semi-worked. I made it through the message, but definitely wasn't in my best form. Awesome spirit of God there and people in the altars.
After a nice potluck meal and conversation with many of the elders- one was a ham radio nut too= we finally broke away. Rusty was a huge hit and was background for many of their old fashioned day pictures. I hit the interstate and did something I rarely do in Rusty. I ticked it up to 75mph and came home. He did great, and if the gas gauge is believed, got over 20mpg doing so.
We finally home tonight.... and Daisy is very pleased Dad is back.

Last post by Roscoe - September 06, 2025, 12:24:58 AMRusty performed in fine fashion all the way. All 350 miles. Some backroads...some interstate, with a ton of admirers. Everywhere we stopped he was the center of attention. Even when a "tv star" Hazen Arkansas Chief Bradly Taylor of "LivePD" fame pulled up behind us at the gas station. Brad didn't get near the picture requests that Rusty did.
I had worked with him on a couple of cases in the past, so I knew of him and his taste of fame. He's become a bit of a tiktok celebrity I guess..
We have made it to Parker's Crossroads, where our host pastor took us out to a delicious dinner and has put us up in a very nice Hampton Inn. My friend is spoiling me, and I pray I can deliver the Word Sunday adequately and someone gets what they need... I have a burden for the message I have to preach.

I am currently at the hospital sitting with dad. He has a sore on his foot that is from an injury incurred last september. As he is diabetic, it has not healed and now he's going to have to get his foot cut off.
Tomorrow.
Praying for him.
