Flyswatter Show: Red Friday

Voicemail: 678-368-4935.

I talk about how we may not be able to do Christmas this year as we are really tight on money (Off topic, and not in the podcast, I’m not really that much into the holiday anyway and it isn’t any skin off my teeth if the whole thing would just go . . . → Read More: Flyswatter Show: Red Friday

Flyswatter Show: Veggie tale of horror!

Voicemail: 678-368-4935.

Today I took Dwight’s Uncle Clifford to the doctor for a complete physical. For a man his age with his poor cognitive abilities, he is doing pretty well. He had an EKG and a chest xray, as well as a prostate exam, which he absolutely didn’t want but the doctor insisted he . . . → Read More: Flyswatter Show: Veggie tale of horror!

Flyswatter Show: Getting Uncle Clifford enrolled in VA

Voicemail: 678-368-4935.

I’m using my Zoom H2 as a microphone, recording directly into the computer while I am waiting for my replacement USB audio interface device to come in. Let me know what you think the sound is like. I’m finding it a little cold-sounding, but it might be fine.

NaPodPoMo 25 – Not even a good show

We all went out for Italian and got sick. My stomach really hurts and I feel kind of sick–there was apparently cheese in the food I got. Also Clifford’s behavior at the restaurant was appalling. I was embarrassed. So yeah. Happy Happy day. The good news is it’s a short show.

So have a good . . . → Read More: NaPodPoMo 25 – Not even a good show

NaPodPomo 23 – Bowling, nursing homes, and delicious vegan food

On tonight’s show I tell harrowing tales of bowling and my utter lack of skill, my grandfather’s abuse at the hands of nursing home attendents and why I don’t want to put Clifford in such a place, bowling alley food failures, and how good vegetables from a farmers market taste.

NaPodPoMo 18 – Daily with Clifford

On today’s show I talk about my day-to-day life living with Dwight’s Uncle Clifford, who suffers from dementia. I’m here to tell you, it ain’t easy, folks. Not only does Clifford repeat himself until I am going mad, he wanders, gets lost, has no sense of time and place, no concept of appropriate behavior, and . . . → Read More: NaPodPoMo 18 – Daily with Clifford

Surprise!

I was out walking this morning and on my way home I saw a thin, older man with shiny black shoes and a red gimme hat walking the opposite direction. I drew closer and was relieved to see that he was not Clifford. I normally hide Clifford’s shoes because he sometimes escapes when I’m not . . . → Read More: Surprise!

Gah

Clifford just came into the bedroom and said he is leaving to go out west. I’d like to see him try.

He has no money and no way to get anywhere. If he expects us to buy him a bus ticket, he’s got another think coming.

Supplements for Clifford

I am going to try to get Clifford to start taking more vitamin D, calcium, garlic, and flax seed. It should help him with the issues he’s having–hypertension, dementia, arthritis, and the fact that he fell off his bed and bruised his ribs because he keeps his mattress shoved down from the headboard on the . . . → Read More: Supplements for Clifford
