Popular Post Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted December 27, 2019 Popular Post Share #1 Posted December 27, 2019 LAJ was approved to move into assisted living. So7 and I will drive out soon with a bed, assist chair, and a headboard. I’m sure Wo7 will add some things. We will rent a trailer and tow this stuff out and return with a Chevy LS3 motor for the rock buggy So7 is building. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A question I would have is "can LAJ fuck this up?" since he seems to have quite a series of tales as related by Old#7. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a good swap. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh he certainly can fuck it up but my wife has been anticipating his every fuck up opp and has been shutting him down. He’s moving in now. LAJ has no idea what he’s in for. I’m sure that once it sinks in that he’s living in an old folks home he will want out and it will be too late. His lifelong trajectory of letting others take care of him and cleaning up his shit will have run out of options. He will have nowhere else to go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAJ is down to a few books, doodads, a computer and clothes. Everything else was sold, donated or trashed. The crap he has now will move out with him. The bed that he sleeps in at RtJ’s will stay behind as it belongs to RtJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that hard to get one of those assisted care places to boot you out. I know this because my mom managed to do it at least once. You need to firm up all the "nowhere else to go" options. Be resolute, and instill it in every other party that might be involved. If necessary, start up a support group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of his from college lives in OH and picked up a motor via salvage. The LS will go in the buggy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happened in about a month after we moved my BIL into one. He had one rule: Don't leave the premises. He fell in a major roadway about a half mile from the place. He's in a locked down memory unit now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted December 28, 2019 Author Share #13 Posted December 28, 2019 Moving day is set for Jan 18. So7 and I will drive out the 17th and back on the 19th. Wo7 said she will tell LAJ that if he doesn’t cooperate and gets tossed, he will be on his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
