The scholar, Xue Xueyan, is a descendant of Kong Shengren. He is a man of generosity and is good at making poetry. He has a friend who is in the county magistrate in Zhejiang, and asks him to go. Kong Sheng was invited to go, and the county magistrate just passed away. He was wandering and unconcerned, and he was poor and could not return home. He had to live in the Bodhisattva Temple and was hired by the temple to transcribe the scriptures.
In the west of the Putuo Temple, there is a hundred steps away, and there is a house of Mr. Shan's house. Mr. Shan is a child of the family. Because he had a big lawsuit, his family was declining, his population was few, and he moved to the country to live. This house was free. One day, the snow was flying, and there were no pedestrians on the road. Kong Sheng accidentally passed through a single doorway and saw a young boy coming out from the inside. His appearance was beautiful and his manners were elegant. When the teenager saw Kong Sheng, he came over to salute him. After a little greeting, he invited him to speak at home. Kong Sheng liked him very much and was very happy to enter the door with him. Seeing that the house is not too spacious, there are brocades hanging everywhere, and many ancient calligraphy and paintings are hung on the walls. There is a book on the desk, the title of the cover is "Writing". He flipped through it and the content was never seen before.
Kong Sheng saw that the teenager lived in this house, thinking that he was the master of a single family, and he no longer asked his family of surnames. The teenager asked Kong Sheng's experience in detail, and he sympathized with him and advised him to set up a library to teach. Kong Sheng sighed: "Who can I recommend me to those who are living outside?" The teenager said: "If you don't dislike me, I am willing to worship you as a teacher." Kong Sheng was overjoyed, he didn't dare to be a teenager teacher, ask him. Treat each other as friends. Then I asked the teenager, "Why is your family shutting down the door?" The boy replied: "This is a single house. It used to be a single son to live in the country, so I have been idle for a long time. My surname is Huangfu, my ancestors lived in Shaanxi. Because The house was burned by wildfire, and it was here to settle down here." Kong Sheng knew that the boy was not the master of a single family. That night, the two talked and laughed, very happy, the young man left Kong Sheng and he slept in bed.
Early the next morning, a small book boy entered the house to have a charcoal fire. The teenager first got up and entered the house, and Kong Sheng sat in the bed around the quilt. The book boy said: "Tai Gong is coming." Kong Sheng was shocked and hurried to get up. A white-haired old man came in and thanked Confucius with eagerness to say: "Mr. I don't want to abandon my foolish boy, I am willing to teach him to study. He only learned to read and write, please don't treat him as a friend because of his relationship." After that, send a set of brocade clothes, a pair of suede hats, shoes and socks. The old man saw that Confucius had finished grooming, so he ordered to serve the wine. The tables and chairs in the room and the dresses worn by people are dazzling, and I don't know what it is made of. After a few patrols, the old man got up and left, and put on a cane.
After eating the meal, the Emperor Gongzi sent the lessons he had learned, all of which were ancient poetry. There was no eight-part essay at the time. Kong Sheng asked him why, the son smiled and replied: "I am not trying to get fame." In the evening, the son put on the wine and said: "Tonight, enjoy the drink, tomorrow will not allow this." Tong said: "Look at Taigong sleeping? If you sleep, you can quietly call Xiangnu." The book boy went to the embroidered pouch and brought it back. After a while, a maid came in, dressed in red, very beautiful. The son asked her to play the song "Xiangfu". Xiangnu used the ivory dial to slap the strings. The melody provoked the mourning, and the beat was not as heard before. Let her drink a large glass of wine, the two have been drinking until three more talents.
The next day, the two got up early to study together. The son is very intelligent and has a good reputation. Two or three months later, it was written and written, which is amazing. They are scheduled to drink once every five days, and every time they drink, they must be called Xiangnu. One night, when he was half drunk, Kong's eyes were fixed on the incense. The son has already understood his mind and said: "This maid is raised by the old father. You are far away from home and have no wife. I have been planning for you day and night for a long time. I want to find a beautiful wife for you." Sheng said: "If you really want to help me, you must find something like Xiangnu." The son said with a smile: "You really become a 'rare and blame' person, if you think that the incense is beautiful, then Your wish is too easy to satisfy."
After more than half a year, Kong Sheng thought of going to the countryside to play. When he reached the gate, he saw the lock on the outside of the two door panels. He asked the son what the reason was. The son said: "My father is afraid to make some friends to disturb the mood, so he will close the door and thank the guests." After Confucius heard about it, he would be relieved.
At the time of the hot summer season, they moved the study to the garden pavilion. On the chest of Kong Sheng, a sore-like sore was suddenly swollen. After a night, he grew up like a bowl. He was so painful and unstoppable. The son visited him on the eve of the night and couldn't even eat and sleep. After a few more days, Kong Sheng was even more painful and could not eat or drink. Taigong also came to visit, and the father and son were relatively sighing. The son said: "I thought about the day before yesterday, the condition of the gentleman, only the sister of Jiaona can be treated. Has sent someone to the grandmother's house to call her, how has it not been so long?" Just finished, the book boy said: " Nagu arrived, and her aunt and Songgu also came together." Father and son rushed into the house. At a glance, the son led his sister Jiao Na to see Kong Sheng. Jiao Na is about 13 years old, glamorous and intelligent. When Kong Sheng saw her beauty, she forgot about it, and the spirit was a cool one. The son said to his sister: "This is my good friend. We are no less than our brothers. My sister should heal him." Jiaona then put away her shame, hanging her long sleeves and leaning on the bed for Kong Sheng. Diagnose the condition. Between the hands and the hands, Kong Sheng smelled that the fragrance of Jiaona was better than the orchid. Jiao Na said with a smile: "It should be the disease, the heart is moving. Although the condition is critical, but it can be healed; only the skin sore block has been condensed, non-cutting meat can not be cut." The gold bracelet was placed in the affected area of Kong Sheng and slowly pressed down. The scabs protrude more than an inch, higher than the gold bracelet, and the red and swollen parts of the sore roots are collected in the bracelet, unlike the previous as large as a bowl. Jiaona used another hand to pick up her clothes and undress the knife. The blade is thinner than paper. She held the knife in one hand and gently cut it along the root of the sore. Purple blood flowed down the knife and stained the bed. Kong Sheng is eager for the beauty of Jiao Na. Not only does she feel pain, but she is afraid that she will cut it early and she will not be able to spend more time with her. After a short time, the rotten meat on the sore was cut off, and the round group was like a tumor that had been cut off from the tree. Jiaona also called the water to wash the cut wounds. Then spit out a red pill from the mouth, the size of the projectile, put it on the flesh of the cut, and rotate it by hand. Only after a round, Kong Sheng felt the heat transpiration; another round, he felt itching; after three rounds, it was already cool and penetrated into the bone marrow. Jiaona put away the red pill and put it back in her mouth and said, "It's cured!" Then he walked away. Kong Sheng jumped up and chased the door and thanked him. He felt that the long-term illness seemed to be gone all at once. However, my heart is worried about the beauty of Jiaona, and I can no longer control myself.
From then on, I was so closed that I was bored. The son has already seen his heart and said: "I have been looking for you for a long time, and finally chose a good girl." Kong Sheng asked: "Who is it?" The son replied: "It is also my relative." Kong Sheng I have been thinking for a long time, just saying: "Not necessary." Then facing the wall 吟诵 Yuan Zhen's poem: "It used to be difficult for the sea, except Wushan is not a cloud." The son learned his meaning. Said: "My father admires your talents and often wants to be a marriage. It's just that I have only one young girl, Jiao Na, who is too young. I still have a cousin, A Song, who is 18 years old and looks good. If you don't believe it, Song cousin will come to the garden pavilion every day. You wait in the front room, you can see her." Kong Sheng said to the son according to the son, and really saw Jiaona and a beautiful woman came together. This woman's thrush is like a silkworm moth's tentacles, and the slim feet are wearing crested embroidered shoes, which is difficult to distinguish with Jiaona. When Confucius was overjoyed, he asked the son to be a medium.
The next day, the son came out from the inner house and congratulated Confucius: "Things are done." So I cleaned another yard and held a wedding for Kong Sheng. On this night, the drums rang and the music was unusual. Kong Sheng felt that the fairy in the moon suddenly came to sleep with him, and he doubted that the Guanghan Palace was in front of him. Not necessarily above the sky. After getting married, Kong Sheng was very satisfied.
One night, the son said to Kong Sheng: "You will never forget the guidance of my growth knowledge. It is only recently that the single son has come back to the lawsuit and asked for the house. It is very urgent. My family wants to leave this place. It seems that it is very difficult. It's very uncomfortable to get together, so Kong's willingness to follow his family west. The son advised him to return to his hometown of Shandong, and Kong Sheng felt very embarrassed. The son said: "Without worry, you can send it away immediately."
Not long after, the Taigong led Song Niang to come and took out one hundred and two gold gifts to Kong Sheng. The son stretched out his hands and held the hands of the couple, and the two closed their eyes and did not look. They floated in the air, only to feel the wind whistling in their ears. After a long time, the son said: "It is here." Kong Sheng opened his eyes and saw that he returned to his hometown. Only then did I know that the son is not a human being. He is happy to open the door. The mother was unexpected and saw beautiful daughter-in-law, and the whole family was very happy. When I look back, the son has long since disappeared. Song Niang is very filial to her mother, and her beauty and virtuous reputation are far and near.
Later, Kong Sheng took the exam and was awarded the post of Yan'an, and took the family to take office. His mother did not go together because of the road. Matsui gave birth to a boy named Xiao Xiao. Kong Sheng was later dismissed for offending the imperial history and was prevented from returning to his hometown. Once he accidentally went hunting in the suburbs and met a beautiful teenager. He rode a black horse and looked back at him. Kong Sheng looked carefully and turned out to be the emperor. Hurry to receive Lema, the two recognized each other, sorrow and joy. The son invited Kong Sheng to go home with him. They walked to a village with dense trees and shade. Into the son of the family, see the door is decorated with golden foam nails, like the family. Kong Sheng asked the current situation of Jiao Na's sister, knowing that she had been married; she also knew that her mother-in-law had passed away, and she was very sad. He stayed for a night and returned with his wife. At this time, Jiaona also came. She took the son of Kong Sheng and played with her. He said, "My sister has messed up my family." Kong Sheng thanked her previous grace, and Jiao Na smiled: "Brother Expensive, sore mouth is already good, have not forgotten pain?" Her husband Wu Lang, also came to see. Stayed here for two nights before leaving.
One day, the Emperor Gongzi suddenly brought a sad look and said to Kong Sheng: "Can you save the disaster?" Although Kong Sheng did not know what was going to happen, he immediately said that he was willing to take it. The son hurried out to greet the whole family and arranged to worship at the church. Kong Sheng was amazed and asked questions. The son said: "We are not human beings, but foxes. Today there are thunders and catastrophes. If you are willing to resist, we will be able to survive; otherwise, please take your children away, so as not to let you suffer." Kong Sheng swears Living together with the son of the family. So the son asked Kong Sheng to stand at the door of the sword, and he said: "Hey bombardment, don't move!" Kong Sheng said according to the son. Sure enough, see the clouds overcast, white as night, dark. Looking back at the place where I lived, the large house was gone, there was only one tall tomb, and there was a big cave with no bottom. When the time was amazed, a loud noise slammed the mountain; the storm swelled and the old trees were pulled out. Although Kong Sheng felt stunned, he still stood there and motionless. In the dark mist of smoke, I saw a monster with a ghost, a long claw, and grabbed a person from the deep hole, as the smoke rose. Kong Sheng glanced at the clothes and shoes of the man and felt like Jiaona. Rushing up in a hurry, stabbed the monster with a sharp sword, and fell a hand. Suddenly another explosion of thunder burst, Kong Sheng was shocked to the ground, and even passed out.
After a while, the sky was clouded, and Jiaona slowly woke up. When she saw Kong Sheng's death, she cried and said, "Kong Lang died for me, why am I still alive!" Song Niang also came out of the cave and carried Confucius back together. Jiaona let Song Niang hold the head of Kong Sheng, let the son use the gold plaque to open the teeth of the hole; she licks the cockroach of Kong Sheng with her own hands, and sends the red pill in the mouth to his mouth with her tongue. Breathing in the mouth and mouth. The red pill screamed as the gas entered the throat of the hole. After a while, Kong Sheng actually woke up. Seeing relatives are in front of them, as if waking up in a dream. So a family reunion, no longer panic, very happy.
Kong Sheng believes that the tomb can not live for a long time, and proposes to let everyone go back to his hometown with him. The full house people pay tribute, only Jiaona is not happy. Kong Sheng asked her to go with Wu Lang, and Jiao Na was afraid that her in-laws would not leave the young child and did not discuss the results throughout the day. Suddenly I saw a small servant of the Wu family, sweating and coming to breathlessly. Everyone panicked and asked him again and again, only to know that Wu Lang's family was suffering on the same day, and the whole family died. Jiao Na heard that she was sad and crying. Everyone comforted her. Until then, everyone decided to go with Confucius's plan to return to his hometown. Kong Sheng went into the city for a few days, and when he came back, he urged to organize the clothes.
After returning to his hometown, Kong Sheng gave his own abandoned garden to the emperor's family. He usually locked the gate of the garden; only Kong Sheng and Song Niang came to open the door. Kong Sheng is with the son, Jiaona brother and sister, playing chess, drinking, talking, gathering, intimate like a family. The son of Kong Sheng grew up, looks good, and has a fox look. He went to the city to play, and everyone knew that he was the son of a fox.

Welcome to Nordictouch Cavalier King Charles Spaniels! We are Siv and Gary Jendresen , who have owned, bred and shown dogs since 1973. Our home is located in the countryside near Great Falls under the big Montana sky --- a site located 20 minutes from the Great Falls International Airport, 6 hours from Calgary, Alberta, 2.5 hours east of Missoula, 4 hours NW of Billings, Montana and 5.5 hours east of Spokane, Washington.
Gary and I met in Norway in 1973, moved to Anchorage, Alaska where we married and established our first family of Afghan Hounds, Siamese cats and a black Lab named "Fred". In 1976, we moved back to Norway where our sons, Andre' Bohan and Kai Kristian were born in 1977 & 1978. We added Saluki's in 1983 and finished 7 Champions; 5 of which were homebred. For several years our kennel ranked among the top 5 Saluki-breeders in that country and we won multi BIS and BISS under our first kennel name, Sea View .
We also did well with our Afghan Hounds.
Finally, in 1987, we owned our first Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and have concentrated on these wonderful dogs ever since.
When we moved to Montana in 1992, we changed our kennel name to Nordictouch. We are proud to be the first Cavalier Breeder in Montana to get our kennel name registered with the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Club - USA . This club is the original registrar for CKCS in the U.S.A. To date we have shown dogs to 45 confirmation titles in the USA , Canada , Norway and Sweden. Pups from our breeding in the last 18 years have gone to happy families in 25 U.S. states and provinces in Canada.
In January 2008 I was awarded one of the first SILVER MEDALLIONs awarded by the American Kennel Club (AKC) for showing 5 homebred dogs to Champion titles from the Bred By Exhibitor class. You can find information about this award at www.akc.org where my name will be permanently listed.
As of 2011 we have 7 AKC Bred By Champions.
We have been members in good standing with the CKCSCUSA since 1998 and you can find us listed every year in their yearbook and under their list of breeders at www.ckcsusa.org.
We have also been members of Great Falls Electric City Kennel Club since 1992.
All Nordictouch dogs and puppies are registered with both the AKC and the CKCSUSA. We do all the required health testing for this breed and continually strive to learn and breed to the best of our ability, quality Cavaliers. Over the years we have attended numerous seminars and classes on handling, dog psychology, reproduction & obedience. Our goal is to breed knowledgeably; with health , type , and soundness foremost in our minds.
We show our own dogs and breed with an aim to produce healthy show-potential puppies from well planned breedings. We continue to finish dogs to become Champions in both USA and Canada. When we can, we also attend and participate in Specialty Shows.
To use our EXPERIENCE in picking out show-potential puppies and to be protective about where they and their progeny go. For this reason, we only sell show prospect puppies on a co-ownership agreement to protect our lines.
In the process of breeding for quality show prospects, we produce some wonderful pets, as well. These pups are sold with spay/neuter AKC and CKCSUSA limited registrations.
We are continuing into 2013 with goals set and a healthy attitude towards doing what is right for this breed. Our ambition and our pride is that Nordictouch Cavaliers are happy Montana Cavaliers !

People in Poland have played Jugger for years, but it was never a league – just a bunch of friends who met at a postapocalyptic convention, and decided to play a casual game of jugger.
With growing knowledge about the game (convention brawl audiences wanted to play, people who weren't there kept asking about "that game in a picture") and demand for standardised rules we decided to start the Polish Jugger League.
Who are we? It all started with OUTPOST leading games, and propagating Jugger among people, but over the time several others joined. Now we are in the process of establishing our own rules and overcoming attendance issues – in our country we play Jugger during conventions that take place in different parts of Poland, and most people cannot attend every single one.
How do we play it? We play it rough. You can see it in the videos - bruises and small injuries are the part of the game... and they look cool! Similar to Czech games, different pieces of armor are allowed, so players can customise their looks and equipment, and our game footage looks more like scenes from original Blood Of Heroes movie.
Knowing the fact that we play in different areas, our jugger fields vary, depending on space availability – sometimes the field is smaller than we would like it to be, sometimes we play on grass, sometimes on tarmac, sometimes on sand... we had to play in the forest once – and just imagine how hard it was for chain enforcers!
And that someday our League grows stronger and we will be able to play games with juggers from other countries.
The first translation of the German Rulebook has been released! A team of people worked together to make the German Rulebook available in English for all Jugger players.
We hope it will help Juggers who come to Germany to play, and also people with an interest in the German Rules.
The rules can be found on the jugger.org community site, under 'English Version' for the translated version.
A few weeks ago I heard of Jugger in Austria, espacially in Vienna so i asked them for an introduction and a few pictures and here is it all for you.
memories of amazing days we shared cross our minds. "Jugger?
Can't be explained. Must be played!!"
... and the two founders.
A few months ago when I came back from a training I though about all that stuff that we discuss very often. But in the four weeks I spend in Dublin we had not one discussion like this. So I started to compare the Rulebooks.
The version of the irish Rulebook I used was written by Peter Houlihan. This version isn't final but there will be an election about his Rulebook.
The first player to hit the other wins, no matter how close behind the other player was. However if two hits land so close together that the gap between them cannot be distinguished they are considered to have "doubled" [...]. Either player may call a double and if they insist (if they call it three times or more) both players must accept the double [...]. Also, if one player hits another at the same time as they strike a third the second two players are considered hit.
After a player has completed their count they must attempt to rise immediately if they are unpinned, runners are exempt from this and may stay down as long as they wish. When rising a player may block with their spar as soon as their knee is off the ground, but their hits will not count until half a stone after they have begun their rise.
Well, now we could discuss if it's need's to be a half stone or if that's a too long time to rise, but in this way you don't get a discussion when you're risen or not. In my point of view that's better than the german version.
Den Spielern ist es erlaubt, aus taktischen Gründen über die Strafzeit hinaus knien zu bleiben. Für die Dauer des Kniens dürfen Spieler nur gepinnt werden.
Other players have the option of staying down if another spar player is already within hitting distance. For fixed spars this means that the spar player could touch the rising player without moving their feet, for chain players this means that the chain is within range and half a swing of the rising player.
Only one player may be pinned with one spar at a time however a player with two short swords [but not q-tips] may pin two other players.
That could be useful if you have someone who is good with two short swords.
And what about the chains? In irish rules only a 180° wrap counts as a hit, and if you wrap a spar the first 360° count as a hit if the ball gets you. In my point of view we should add this to the german rulebook and as I know a few teams already handle it this way.
A runner is considered to have scored from the moment any part of the skull enters the goal.
Another point is that if you leave the court within the range of a chain you must get down for eight stones.
And about the stones, according to irish rules a stone is 2 seconds and not 1,5 as in the german rules. Also there aren't any limitations for changing players. And the last point is that the court lines aren't part of the pitch.
At the end I can say that in the german rules is more space for interpretation and that the most rules in the irish rulebook are easier. I for my part prefer the irish rulebook.

Jugger has arrived in Amsterdam 1,5 years ago. Two Jugger players form Münster in Germany moved to Amsterdam after they played Jugger in Münster for a long time. After they got used to life in Amsterdam, they started building weapons and promote Jugger. Now there are always enough players to play at least 3 against 3 or some training games.
At the weekend of the 16./17. October two people (@nalfion and @p0Ldi_MS) from Münster visited Amsterdam. They brought a strong chain with them, since you can only buy chains with a small diameter in the Netherlands, probarbly the same problem as in Spain.
On the first day we built the chains and on the second day we trained in the Martin-Luther-Kingpark, you can watch pictures of this training on flickr.
If you want to join the training there is a doodle and a forum to coordinate the trainings, so feel free to use them and join the training.
... there is no legitimate authority which can make legitimate decisions on Jugger for the community, neither in Germany nor globally?


January 10, 2014. Just a date on a calendar, nothing special really. Two days after I had gotten out of the hospital, after spending 5 lovely days laid up being waited on hand and foot. Yes, hospital stays are generally thought of as a nightmare…not this one. You see, my nightmare was at home. I didn't want to leave this 10 x 20 room. It was safe here. Here people took care of me, made my decisions for me, brought me my food (oops that was my hubby coming back from McD's) 10 days of no food will make you pretty hungry. I DID NOT WANT TO GO HOME FROM THE HOSPITAL!!!!
I know that sounds crazy, but I was going home to crazy and I just didn't want to go. Alas, hospitals are not the Hilton and check out is not optional (especially NOT at $2000 a night). I arrived back at the asylum late on January 8th. They came and set up the machine that would help me to breath and I laid in bed that day and the next, unable to talk…still.
On January 10th I decided to get up, get dressed and go out into the world if only to the CVS drive thru and a follow up Doctor's appointment. I hadn't been in public for days,14 to be exact. We woke up early and told mom to get ready to go. She had been alone much of the last 5 days so she was not a happy camper, although she was trying her best.
We got into the car, after locking the doors and sat there. Where are the keys? We hadn't seen them since I handed them to my brother at the hospital (of course, we didn't think of this until after we locked the door). It was 3 degrees that day even in sunny SC, damn polar vortex! I looked at mom and asked where the house keys were, she didn't have a clue. I called my brother, "I gave them to mom when I dropped her off". What? No please tell me you didn't… he did.
I called the owner of the house we rent and he graciously offered to come and unlock our doors, he was about an hour away and thankfully we had the car keys. We went on with our errands while I silently fumed in the front seat. We got back home and the doors were unlocked. We went searching for the keys that mom didn't have and somehow, someway she had managed to lock them in her safe. A safe that as far as I know has no valuables in it, some checks and receipts for bills that she paid 15 years ago. That's just my mom. "Oh, I remember now I was afraid someone would break in…so you locked the house keys in the safe? Only in Alzheimer's World does this make sense (as Bob DeMarco puts it, although at this point I had yet to meet him).
We made it through the Doctor's appointment, picked up the prescriptions and had the doors unlocked. It was going to be okay as long as I would NOT TALK! Easy for them to say.
I decided that I felt up to a little grocery shopping , the food pantry was getting very low Mom was down to only one box of poptarts and 12 cans of Chicken and Wild Rice soup. So off we went, at around 3 in the afternoon, to Walmart to get food. I would ask mom what would you like "Nothing". She was following me through the store like a heat seeking missile. Right on my ankles, again I calmed myself down. I was getting tired and I just wanted it over with. Do you need coffee "Nothing". I just started throwing stuff in the cart that I knew she would eat and called it a day before I collapsed in the middle of the checkout aisle. Okay, I get it she was angry but why, I had no idea.
We went home and I offered to cook. Mom what do you want? "Nothing". Okay at this point, I lost it! I asked her what was wrong with her. She looked me dead in the eye and said "I hate your house. I hate being here with you and damn it I am going home!" What? I have never been screamed at by my mother, she gave us guilt trips not screaming binges, that was me not her. I had never been talked to like that from her and I will blame it on the shock, but I looked at her and said "You can't go home, you can't even take care of yourself for one day without causing a catastrophe". I cringe at that memory even now.
She went running to her room, I sat at the kitchen table crying and shaking myself. When I looked up my husband was stepping out the back door with tears in his eyes. We were all miserable and going crazy.
Later I learned that the stress from being alone those 5 days, even though someone was with her most of the time, it wasn't me and I am who she had come to depend on. She thought I had abandoned her although she knew how sick I was, she doesn't understand it.
Another big mistake I made was the late afternoon grocery trip, yes I felt up to it, but did she? I didn't even think to take that into account. She had been through quite an ordeal herself. She was left alone to much, the pipes had frozen (again damned polar vortex) and she couldn't even talk to me on the phone. While Pat took care of everything he isn't me and that's what she needed most. I was only trying to get things back on track. It was a combination of bad timing, confusion, frustration and just being scared to death.
After that I fixed her a bowl of her favorite soup and a grilled cheese (she eats like a 12 year old these days) we somehow ended up watching UFC girls fighting and laughing about it. I had a reputation when I was younger because I liked to fight…mostly boys, but that's a different story. We talked about old times and had a wonderful evening.
Oh man – you are going through such struggles. Thanks for sharing your story.
Thank you Robin, it is an ever changing situation but something that I feel I owe to my mother.
We didn't have to deal with alzheimers with my Mom or Dad thank goodness. You are a saint for being able to handle what you went through. It is never easy taking care of a parent when they get older… when you throw alzheimers into it… that is a whole new ballgame.
I am definitely not a saint Terry but thank you. I am just doing what must be done. I love my mom and want the best care for her.
Your chronicles are so raw and honest. I think you should put them into a book!
Thank you Liz, maybe someday. Right now I am working on another project…when I have the time.
You go through so much I can not even begin to imagine how hard that must be,Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you Kay I want to stress it is very hard but there are also some good times to still be had.
"I'm scared." Yes, I get this. I remember it. That's what got me in this post.
Yes, Carol it was very emotional for all of us. I never heard her say that…ever. She has always been such a strong, independent woman!
Dealing with Alzheimer's as a caregiver is incredibly challenging. I remember when I was in nursing school, the first day of clinicals a patient with Alzheimer's called me a "dirty girl" and other not so nice things. I was so taken aback by it. I learned quickly that they don't mean it. It's hard when someone you love is being cruel to you, but you have to just keep reminding yourself that it's not them. Still hard though. I'm sorry you had a rough time.
Yes, that is a challenge. She has made some embarrassing statements before but I am considering having cards made to pass out to people who might not otherwise understand that she doesn't mean it.
It must have been so hard on both of you. What you are dealing with is such a huge learning experience and it is nice that you are sharing it. Others will find your blog and know they are not alone in this type of struggle.
That is my one hope Jennifer. I remember that feeling of being all alone and I don't wish it on anyone.
I can't even imagine what you felt like when she said "I'm scared." How sad, and I'm sure so many people can relate to your struggles. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you Lois! It was heartbreaking that is for sure.
Such a well written story, it just pulled at my heart. I could tell you a million things like, don't be so hard on yourself, you were just getting out of the hospital and forgot sundowners effect, your coping skills were compromised by your own illness, etc but of course you know all this and beautifully shared!
Thank you so much Haralee! Yes you're so right my brain knows all of this stuff it's getting my heart to follow along that is sometimes the hardest part.
I love how honest you are in your posts. I hope to never have to go through this.
I hope you don't either Amanda, thank you!
Prayers to you. You have one of the hardest jobs in the world. This should go into a book. I would buy it. God bless you.
Alzheimer is never something easy to go through.
That's for sure, thanks for reading!
Oh my goodness, what a day! And all that happened in just ONE day, that's something else! I'm glad you're able to see that the anger isn't really your mom, though!
Yes, we learn more every single day and although the disease gets worse we have made progress in the caregiving. The more I learn the easier it is for the both of us.
Oh this is a bit far too familiar to me. My Mom has Alzheimer's as well. As did my Grandma and Grandpa (her parents). I feel the pain and frustration and know the same fear.
Oh Amber I am so sorry! It is a dreadful disease for anybody to go through! Hope you will check out some of my other posts and you can always email me although I am by no means and expert just someone learning to do the best job possible under the circumstances.
Thanks Becca! Hugs and support always welcome!
Alzheimer's is difficult. I just lost my great grandmother to the disease in March. She tried so hard to be independent but in the end, I believe her inability to care for herself (and her stubbornness) ended up getting the best of her.
I am so sorry for your loss Nicole! My prayers are with you and your family.
My grandfather, who passed away last year, had serious dementia. He would freak out that an "scary old lady was in the window"- it was his reflection in the mirror. Such a horrible disease.
Yes, there are some very peculiar behaviors that come along with it. My mom always thinks she is smothering. It just can't be explained.
Even though I'm sure you don't feel like it some days, you are doing such an amazing thing for your mother. I'm sorry that you are going through this, but stay strong! Thoughts and blessings to you.
Lana thanks for your support as always!!!! Glad your back from your vacation and hope you had a great time!
Alzheimer's is such a horrible disease anyways. So difficult to see someone suffer.
Sounds like you're having a rough time right now and I can't say it will get better because I don't know that, but I am saying a prayer for you.
This was in fact written about several months ago and even though there are hard times this was the hardest and things have gotten alot better…most of the time.
Can you feel something that is squeezing you as you read these words? That is my long distance hug. A very big bear hug.
I live every day with health struggles, but to hear your mother tell you she is scared? That must be indescribable. Oh my goodness.
Thank you for sharing what must have been a difficult story for you to write.
Thanks Cathy! I know how much you struggle and being someone who has RA I understand what you go through. You are one tough lady who I greatly admire!
You are an example of how to handle struggles with grace.
Thank you Elayna for such kind words!
Must be really tough on you. I'm thankful that you get moments that you can enjoy. Gives you some memories to escape to when it really gets too tough!
So right Marielle! There are good and bad times in everyone's life and remembering the good things can definitely help get you through the bad!
The hard days are hard, but that just makes the good days that much better. Thank you again for all you do!
Your posts are so honest it really helps relate to you!!
Oh wow….I can't imagine what you are going through. You really should compile these into a book. I'm sure your experience would be helpful to many people dealing with similar situations.
I have had that suggestion alot lately and I appreciate it very much…maybe someday soon.
Things have gotten better Susan and it is because of the support that I get from friends like you that always let me know that I am not alone. You don't understand how much that means to me!
Thank you for sharing. I hope your journey gets easier.
I agree with another reader – this belongs in a book. It's so honest and well-written. God bless you!
Thanks Kristen! I am working on something right at the moment that I hope everyone will like (fiction) but I am seriously giving it some thought!
Thanks for sharing your journey. You are such an inspiration to those that are struggling on their journey.
Thank you so much for your kind words Ann!
That's scary. It's awesome you do what you do. Takes an extreme amount of patience and courage.
Some days are really good others not so much! I am very blessed to have a supportive family.
I love reading your blog. I feel like I'm right there with you.
I think having a blog is a great way for you to share the struggles that caregivers go through. It's not an easy role to have.
It is and it saves me a fortune in therapy.
This has to be hard. I will pray for patience and strength for you. All the best!
Thanks Veronica all prays welcome and appreciated!
I sometimes get very frustrated when taking care of my mom when she's sick and she doesn't even have alzheimers. I can't imagine how much you go thru but I do know that even at the most frustrated point, it doesn't change how much we love our mothers. You're a great daughter!
That is so true Mina. I know someday she won't be here and I will long for that aggravation and frustration. Good luck to you as well. You must be a great daughter also!
I am so sorry you going through this. I admire your honesty and though you might not see it I see your strength. I think you need to see if you can get respite care, I think that is the name so you can relax. I wonder if you have adult day care centers where you live. Also I took a nursing class and they said alzheimers is often food related and we should limit our intake of sweets. I noticed you said your moms pop tarts are getting low. I would give her more fruits and veggies and NO OJ. I don't know they said this in class. Then again I have never had to be in this situation and it seems like you have a lot going on. I wish I could just give you a hug and let you know everything was manageable and how I admire you so!!!
I have been thinking about the adult day care a couple of days a week but mostly to give her more interaction with people her age. She gets lonely around here sometimes.
Thank you for reading Tess, I post at least every Monday sometimes more. Sign up for my blog posts it makes it alot easier.
The theme that seems to go through all of your stories is that neither you nor your mom have all the answers. But together, through love, it's clear that you'll get through each day and each struggle as it comes.
I guess Karen that sums it up better than anything else!
What a wonderfully honest account of caring for your mother. I always had to struggle to be patient with my mother; I absolutely adore the woman but boy did she push my buttons. One of those areas of my life where I wish for a do-over. Thank you for sharing!
Believe me Tracy she can and loves to push those buttons also! Mom has always been a smartass and she definitely has not lost that ability at all!
I'm so sorry you're having such struggles. My mom has been diagnosed with Dementia and I dread what the future holds for her.

Hillary Swank & Director Deon Taylor Discuss Infectious Energy on Set of 'Fatale'
By JillMunroe
*You might require a distraction right about now. The new Lionsgate romantic thriller, "Fatale," starring Michael Ealy and Academy Award winner Hillary Swank will give you the much-needed escapism you seek.
The film was released in theaters last December and arrives via on-demand on January 8.
Ealy stars as Derrick, a sports agent who is living the life, with a successful business, tailored suits, a plush office, a beautiful wife, and a lavish Hollywood Hills home complete with an infinity pool.
But, it's never just that simple. He and his wife – portrayed by Damaris Lewis– are having problems at home. He jets off to Vegas to attend a bachelor party with his business partner Rafe (Mike Colter.) There Derrick ends up having a one-night stand with Val (Swank), a woman he meets in the club.
When Derrick returns to LA, he and his wife are brutally attacked one night by a masked intruder. When the police arrive to investigate, the detective in charge is, you guessed it, Val – who Derrick not only lied to about his name but his marital status as well. Uh oh!

EURweb correspondent Jill Munroe spoke with Swank – who is also one of the producers of the film, director and producer Deon Taylor, and Fatale co-star Colter about putting the project together, and the family environment Taylor creates on set.
Taylor produced the film for his company, Hidden Empire Film Group, which also put out another Ealy Thriller, "The Intruder" which starred Megan Goode and Dennis Quaid.
Swank says it was Taylor's energy and the opportunity to play a different type of role that made her want to get involved in the project:
Deon found me. He sat down with me and said, 'I have an idea. A story that I want you to be in. And I don't know why you haven't done something like this genre or role before.' And I thought the same thing, why haven't I? He pitched the story and I thought, this is incredible. Just as importantly, Deon is infectious, he's optimistic. His work as he's building his career… I saw "The Intruder" around the same time that we met, which allowed me to see how he creates incredible suspense. Which is not easy, it's like making magic. So I knew this is a director to watch out for and one I wanted to work with.
Taylor explained why he appreciates every moment on set:
When you come from an independent background in film, you're very respectful of the fact that it's an honor to make a movie. It's an honor to be here. The film is like the Super Bowl for directors. You've worked all season to get on the field. It has to be magical. You want those people that are working with you, to feel the same energy that you feel being there. And what I love doing is creating a family environment on set. Because what happens – and what a lot of people don't talk about – is that when I get to hour 19, 20, 21, you want that actor – your partner in that movie – to look at you and be like, 'yo, let's get this done.' Not say, oh, I should be off by now… we know that you can never recapture that moment, so that's why you feed people your soul and your energy.

Has there ever been a guy who deserved to get raped in a prison shower more than this guy? I don't think it will matter if he drops the soap or not.
I switched to Touchdown for both email and calendar and couldn't be happier.
Heard a guy on the radio say something the other day that I couldn't believe was true but I guess it is.... He said many used cars are worth MORE now than they were worth a year ago. Huh?? Has the whole world gone crazy? Am I the only one who gives a #### about the rules? If I was in the market for a car now I would definitely be buying new.
I wish I could say I'm getting excited for Uncharted 3. It'll be nearly the same as putting in a movie. Fight 4 bad guys then watch a 20 minute cut scene. I am going to purchase Saints Row: The Third. It comes out on November 15th. I enjoyed the first two in this series.
I am not happy with the stock Corporate Sync app that came with my Droid X. Sometimes I get emails instantly, sometimes I get them days later. After some research it seems this is a common problem with this app. Can anyone recommend another Outlook email client where I'll always get these emails immediately? I know both K9 mail and Touchdown are options, but I'd like some FFA guidance.
:goodposting:I really wanted to like this game. I thought the premise was cool. I just got promoted to my 3rd "desk" and I couldn't care less. I'm not going to complete this.Extremely tedious. If I have to chase another guy up a pole I'm going to lose it.
Is there a way with Android to see if a text was sent specifically to me.... or if I was just included in a mass text to tons of people?
When's the last time someone posted a cool game for Android? I don't understand why Apple has all the new games and there's not much out there for Android users.
Thanks for bumping this. I also recently saw an article that said the Playstation 4 is not far off.
Oof. I've been debating whether or not to install Liberty.I think you just settled it for me.
