Anyone remember the old Art Linletter show " Kids say the darndest things"? Anyone want to start a thread of DH says the darndest things? I thought I had seen one here b4, but I searched and couldnt find one.
Well, heres mine for the day. My DH seems to copy what he hears, just like a kid.
I came home from work yesterday, my last day of the week and was relaxing and started and movie on the dvr. My dh chimes in with
Sheltifan, This happens to me, too. If I am tired after work, DH says he is really tired, too, although he did nothing all day. Also, if I have a headache, he has one too! Same with anything I say. It's true, you gotta laugh! If I still was getting cramps, he'd probably also get them.
Yes this is a great idea and it will forever keep us laughting, something ALL caregivers need...... Yesterday on the way home from a trip my dh informed me that "tomorrow i am going to be healed". I asked him how he was going to do this, he said" I am going to (and he made some funny sounds) do this and it will all go away......." As soon as he does this I will record it and pass it on.......lol......hope all have a great day.....
yes I told him I would pass it on and he said good. Well today when he was not healed, I asked him what happened, he was not healed yet. He said he was not feeling good today, it would just have to wait....... maybe tomorrow......
One I liked or maybe didn't like was when DH ask me how old I was. I told him and he said "You don't look that old" Fishing for a compliment I ask him how old I looked, his answer was, "A lot older than that." If you don't want to hear the answer, don't ask the question.
When Dh was able to "dress" himself, he came into the living room wearing a very very tight pair of pants. He complained that all the pants in the closet were too small and this was the only pair he could get on. I went into the bedroom to find every pair of my pants laying on the bed. He had tried on every pair.
I'm glad he didn't come out and say they were all too big.
Ann - that reminds me of the Blondie cartoon where Dagwood is going to lay down on the couch. Blondie asks why he doesn't go to bed. He answers: I need a nap so I can make it to bed.' I read to my hb and now for years when he falls asleep in his chair that is his excuse.
One of the gentlemen in the facility with Charlie loves ketchup and wants it on everything he eats. He usually has a stash a small packets somewhere in him room. When he asked for ketchup one of the aides asked where his was. " I can't find it, but when I do I am going to throw the darned stuff away." "Why?" asked the aide "Because I can't find it" he replied.
My husband has been having burning urine.... the next step will be a cyctocope.. I asked the doctor if it could possibly be the Pepsi, it's all that he drinks. Doc suggested we stop the pepsi and wait a week and see if the burning urine goes away. DH chimes in that he often has to take clients out to lunch and buy them and himself a drink.... what should he have? I don't think when he was taking clients out to lunch, Pepsi was on the menu. (LOL)
I love these too. This is one of my favorite threads. However, since Charlie has not been able to speak for a long time, I have to "borrow" some from the other residents at his facility.
My husband isn't able to communicate, however, as I listen to the other residents I do chuckle to myself, when they complain about the food being late, and they are not coming to this restaurant anymore....they are always there the next day saying the same thing. There is a new gentleman at the facility...when another residents wife came & gave her husband Frank a kiss, the new gentleman ask, "I assume that was your wife, Frank, replied " I hope so, or I might be in trouble"
