Lili Donkey, 30 May, 2008 at 14:26

I can't put my finger on why exactly but pretty much everything she does is winding me up - silly, petty things mostly but generally I'm finding myself thinking "WTF" several times a day. We're a...

WWYD?
Hubble, 29 May, 2008 at 15:59

haagweg, 28 May, 2008 at 14:54

Pondering:Do you think of your OH's family as YOUR family?
Bird., 27 May, 2008 at 13:34

Been thinking about this quite a bit recently. I think of my family to be my immediate blood family - parents, siblings etc, and I consider my H's family to be his family, not mine. My H on the other...

Old people memory loss - long sorry
Gingey Wife, 18 May, 2008 at 12:33

When is memory loss in an old (?) person something to worry about? My Dad, who is 72, has really gone downhill in the past 2 years. Until he was 70 he was spritely and no way like a 70 year old then...
