Rhinos now live at the south pole
Laugh or cry?
OH had another assessment today. Rhinos now live at the south pole and ten past five is actually ten to three.
There has to be a smile in there somewhere.. ??

Thanks LadyA and everyone else. It's sad, sad, and more sad. That's why I'm trying to see the funnier side!!
I know that it's so hard to see a partner or family member change so much but in my late father's care home I found I could deal with it more easily if I just tried to suspend my wordly comparisons and relax and go along with and around it.
I used to go wandering with some of the wanderers (it was a secure unit with a fab garden), waffle utter nonsense and play with people with the objects and toys that we found en route. I can honestly say that despite everything at times it was utterly delightful.
I became really fond of some of the residents in what was an incredibly special place.
What a wonderful thread! You could write a book with that title- Rhinos at the South Pole - and fill it with the warm and funny stories that keep our loved ones loveable.
I once had to tell Jeremy Corbyn to get out of our wardrobe, and the little kid that comes into our room and swings on the light shade just won't be told! But my favourite was the time I woke up because hubby had clouted me on the back. The reason? There were some little piggies running up and down my spine, and he was going to get one of the little b**gers and make a bacon sandwich. [emoji38]
