4th time attempting to reply:

Hoping that this reply goes through. I am going to post on Slack this morning, not because I necessarily think it is the easiest to use but I am too frustrated to deal with OH.

It is a good thing that your Dad isn't frustrated by not remembering. Yet another stage but is easier for them I think. Someone wanted to okay for a POA? Bank of America made us jump through hoops when we had to change from the primary POA (deceased DH who was too far in dementia) to secondary POA (my BIL) for my MIL. Ridiculous that they don't have a concept that a legal POA is valid when the person is INCAPACITATED. Why did she think your Dad didn't know his name???

Congrats on beating the Shark for your 10% of the time! I don't think I would have gone back with the milk either but I might (if I remembered) mention it the next time and maybe have them charge me twice for one?

Yes, way too much company. We tell people to visit whenever and they do! Of course having 6 children between the 2 of us and having also combined friends makes the audience larger.

Your sweet dad. I'm so glad that didn't upset him and that he was able to come up with it himself!

I will post anywhere that works best for everyone. Slack seems to have the highest learning curve for me, but that's just because I've never used it. I can learn...OH is the easiest for me. I don't love FB, but will use it if that's the vote.

Why thank you! Having a mom who was in law enforcement for 38 years and 15 years of Catholic school didn't hurt my sense of right and wrong.
