Hey, cuz, let's have di - LUNCH! Ha! I almost called it dinner!

That's what they called lunch back in the day.

Sisyphesse said...: I love keeping up with these cute conversations. I almost posted to my blog last night in honor of them. They are so life affirming and I need that - here's why....

Dinner Conversations with my Father-in-Law - dealing with Alzheimer's - by Sisyphesse

FIL: What should we do with the dead man over there? I mean how do we know he's really even dead?

Sisyphesse: Well, I called the police, so I'm not worried. They will get to the bottom of the whole matter.

FIL - but how will we know whether he died?

Sisyphesse - They will send in an expert. I told them that we have a guy here who seems to be dead.

FIL - Oh, good. Is there more bread?

Sisyphesse - Sure. Butter?

FIL - No. Thanks. But what will we do with that man? How will we know he's dead?

Sisypesse - The police and medical examiner took him out of here. I'm sure they will figure it out.

FIL - But what will happen to his body after that?

Sisyphesse - That's not up to us. More salad?

FIL - Sure. I could have more of that.

...additional salad served...

Sisyphesse - I'm glad you like the salad. Your wife and I made it together.
