I love the light shining through the trees and sky. Is it a river, or a pond?

You could totally write kids’ books.
It’s not all natural either. I’ve recently learned about anticholinergic burden and am annoyed I didn’t know sooner because with the health system the way it is now (so many locums, no continuity of care, overworked hospitals) elderly people really need their family looking out for stuff like this.

Bunch of factors:
cognitive decline
cognitive issues related to medications eg anticholinergic burden
belief that they no longer “understand” the way things work and have to take younger people’s word for things
fear due to physical vulnerability (give in to scammers to avoid getting hurt physically)
loneliness (give in to scammers because they think they are making a human connection)
What we can do to help oldies is to be actively in their lives and looking out for them. Helping them navigate stuff and just letting them know we are there.
Super atmospheric. I love the bit of light on the rhs it kind of suggests the contrast of a cosy house with the street.
Beautiful, that mist layer really makes it ethereal!
Makes sense. I still really love plain lemonade ones, feels like a treat for me.
New New Internet.
Here’s a photo I took inside a car wash
Thanks! Done!
Great, I’m back to questioning my identity and I’d forgotten the other super hard question in there, dessert. 😃
What can I say, I was young and it feels like it should work so I kept thinking maybe the champagne wasn’t good enough, maybe it works better with dry instead of sweet, etc.
If you hate tonic, maybe substitute one of those fancy Fever Tree club sodas then?
Seem to have left the co payment of Community Services cards for now.
Holy smoke!
Fudge, I forgot to complete it! I got halfway through and started having an existential crisis about my identity ha ha and thought I’ll come back later and fix this.
Be careful what you wish for. Mine was when half my hometown started telling my mother they saw me stuffing my face with chips in the background of a One News report when I was meant to be in class.
I did it when I was in my 20s a few times and I hated it. Tasted suspiciously like vomit.
However I did not give up there. The grown up spider/icecream soda involves tonic water, french vanilla icecream, crushed strawberries and a dash of gin, imo.
Diet can do it too, e.g vitamin D deficiency also causes cognitive decline, and if doctors find out someone is eating 50% butter and puts them on statins (anti cholesterol) that causes reversible cognitive decline as well.
Bizarrely, with elderly people you also have to watch out for “silent” UTIs - they don’t hurt so the person might not realise they have one and it causes really marked signs of dementia, eg they say really dementia-ish things. Antibiotics clears it up. I saw this one first hand and it was such a relief to actually figure it out and get the person back to normal.
