LookieNoNookie -> Soooo....my Mom is bat shit..... (3/14/2013 4:35:52 PM)

....she's 78 (but most people would tell her she only acts like someone who's 77, 11 months, 3 weeks, 6 days)....that's beside the point....

She's bat shit.

She does weird shit....not like loopy, Alzheimer's, over the top, gotta get her a home, away from rational thinking "normal" people...just....fucking bat shit crazy.

She does weird shit...daily....every day...pick a day, she does crazy shit. Getting gas....but not getting gas (forgetting to put the fucking pipe in).

I could go on.

Describe it....that's my Mom....I absolutely, truly....over the top....love my Mom...ain't no one better than MY Mom....but I swear....some time around 67 - 76 she lost her gourd.

(Could have been last week.....I only recently started to keep track and frankly....she's...well....a fucking loon).

Dat be my Mom.

Love her...best gawdamn Mom on Earth.

My mom died two years ago, but she was another bat-shit crazy person. She shaved a Himalayan cat to look like a lion. I have a whole story about that, but I'll pass for now. She was fun. I miss her.

My mom died five years ago. She was not bat shit crazy, but weird.

If she told you that you should do something out of the ordinary, you better do it.

For example, when I drove a truck I called her on Mother's day while I was in Reno. She told me to play poker.

I went to the casino and got into a game of Texas Hold em. I had pretty good luck until the last hand, then I had great luck. I ended up with a straight heart flush.

Made enough that I didnt need to call for an advance on my trips for a couple of weeks.

Trust me...anything beyond Omega 1....would stifle her.

(And I ain't gonna do math with her now at this late stage).

Mom's are great :)

Ain't no one better than Mom's :)




Muttling -> RE: Soooo....my Mom is bat shit..... (3/14/2013 9:22:07 PM)

Do you have a particular question/ discussion you are looking to start or is this just a general vent?





What little description you provide sounds pretty typical of dementia as well as Alzheimer's, both of which can be helped with medical attention (not necessarily cured, but serious improvements to the quality of life.)


On a final note, if you think it's frustrating to you that she forgets to put the hose in the car after paying for gas........how do you think SHE feels once she realizes it or (even worse) when someone points it out to her?




ShaharThorne -> RE: Soooo....my Mom is bat shit..... (3/15/2013 5:13:36 AM)

Mom is just plain weird...refuses to go to Austin (told her if we hit the lotto, we have to go claim it), refuses to drink well water (I think it is bad because of the iron content) and tell me that I need to bathe more often...hell, we don't go to town that much, like I need to impress anyone.

She also tells me I am on the computer too much but I got the chair broken to my body...she has to use a pillow for her butt...LOL!

Now that I am back home from visiting Lizard, she has to deal with my snoring and getting up extra early for pain pills.

Ain't Mom's beyond incredible?

Fucking amazing.

Stupid crazy, but...they are Mom's :)

(And mine is fucking wondermous).

(I think there's a lizard that comes in and bites them at night....it's like a Mom lizard...bites the whole Mom thingie...then they have to do lizard stuff....be untrue....lizardly untrue.....).

(That's what I'm thinking....still mapping all this shit out).




LaTigresse -> RE: Soooo....my Mom is bat shit..... (3/15/2013 7:46:33 PM)

My mother has always been bat shit. Like, seriously, needs medicating, counseling, maybe even hospital visits, batshit. But meh, she ain't my problem.

Now ME on the other hand, as a mother and grandmother, while batshit, am more or less fully functional au naturel. No medication (aside from regular doses of dark chocolate) required.

My daughter usually thinks I am the most fabulous wonderful mother/grandmother in the universe.

My son only thinks that when I am doing what he wants, for him. The rest of the time he pretty much can't stand me and thinks I am bat shit because I am usually calling him on his shit, no bats involved.

Who knows.




MalcolmNathaniel -> RE: Soooo....my Mom is bat shit..... (3/15/2013 9:01:58 PM)

Third best.

Shortly before she died my mom made mention of a "dominatron." She didn't understand BDSM, but she made an effort to learn. Poorly, but she made the effort. I am the third child. She always said she had 2 children, a gift from G-d and a surprise.




cordeliasub -> RE: Soooo....my Mom is bat shit..... (3/16/2013 8:07:46 AM)

When my mom dies, I swear her headstone will read "You need lipstick."

Some of her timeless wisdom:

You have to suffer to be beautiful

Don't smoke (not because of cancer or disease or anything like )....it's not ladylike.

Never call a boy first

Before you buy a short skirt, be sure to sit down and cross your legs while wearing it

Don't use a curse word when you can use an intelligent word instead

If you decide to go to Wal Mart without your makeup, you WILL see people you know....be warned.




needlesandpins -> RE: Soooo....my Mom is bat shit..... (3/16/2013 8:22:27 AM)

sorry to say Lookie but your mum is showing typical signs of early onset dementia. ignoring it and calling it just weird may make you feel better, but it doesn't change anything. getting her checked out now, and possibly on meds will be the best thing you can do for her.

the above is coming from someone that works, and is trained in the field.

freedomdwarf1 -> RE: Soooo....my Mom is bat shit..... (3/16/2013 9:07:58 AM)

My mum was very radical for the day - not bat-shit crazy, but very radical.

Who thinks Dr Who was the first Time Lord??
Forget it! My mum was the one that gave them the ideas! lol.

Many times as a kid, and an adult, I wondered how she managed to do what she did.
As a kid, I'd be doing something naughty in the garden after checking that she was nowhere in sight.
A few seconds later and I'd have her slipper whizz past my ear - missing me by a mere millimetre!
I'd turn around and she'd be standing there, arms folded, tapping her foot, saying one single word.... "And??"!!
You'd be frozen, just like a deer or rabbit caught in headlights. "Where's my slipper?" she'd ask...
So you would meekly reach over and hand over the slipper.
You knew not to argue with her... so you volunteer to go to your room as fast as your little legs could carry you.
And she'd be standing at the top of the stairs.... Arms folded, slipper in hand, foot tapping, scowling at you.
WTF?? How did she get there soooo fast??

I used to own the house next to hers when I was older.
I'd let off some fireworks in my garden.
She'd be round to my place faster than I could blink and be battering me with her broom and screaming something about frightening her cat (which was fast asleep on her sofa).
And before I could turn around and go inside, she'd have put her broom away, got into my house, and was sitting on my sofa demending to know where her cuppa was!
FFS! I was barely two steps from my own back door when I was being battered by her broom!!!
How the fuck did she get into my house without me seeing her??

Just two examples of many many incidents throughout my life.
And she was barely 4ft10" tall!


Sadly, she passed away some 15 years ago through a stroke and diabetic complications [:(]
But.... I have many good and fond memories of her these days and there are times that I really miss her wisdom.
