The Chateau Diaries #312 Stephanie Jarvis, you stupid girl, why is your Patreon account "under review"?!

[Ladeda1957]

So I’ve come to the conclusion that Snorts has a gambling addiction only it’s at auctions not in a casino. He has to bid constantly to win whatever, never let the boy enter a casino because he has a problem.

We sell know Fanny has a shopping addiction and in her Snorts has found the perfect enabler, there is nothing to like about either of Them and with their addictions their downfall will be spectacular.

My lovely mother had alzheime'rs (binswanger's, actually) for 10 years, I cannot imagine how it feels for it to happen to a spouse, a young one at that. My heart goes out to you @Lochness Monster, for the present is probably the most difficult stage to navigate. It does get better and you may, in time, grow to enjoy your visits with your dear hubby plus other 'inmates' and staff. There can be quite a camaraderie and moments of levity despite the underlying sadness.

Some good advice here from @Beachgirl and @LittleMore Cottage to which I would add: ask the caregivers what you can do to make their lives easier in regard to clothing (less buttons, more zips) Above his bed place a LARGE photo of him when young and vital so he is seen as the man he was and not the patient he has become PLUS one with all the family and friends you can muster so that he is shown as a person who is valued and loved. ( Everyone has teensy photos on a dresser which no one has time to stop and look at, so pics need to be super visible). .

Now how would Caroline know that?

My husband has now been offered a bed in the only establishment that is suitable,and will move in to the home on Monday in ten days time. Even good clothes are desirable. I have bought him a cheap watch to wear now , it is heartbreaking as I gave him his lovely watch as an engagement present over 40 years ago.
My heart aches with sadness at him moving, but is also heavy with fear at how they will treat him.

I feel for you both but hope he gets proper care. I had to choose a home for my dad and was fortunate both times with his. My advice would be to vary the days and times you visit and never tell them in advance. I did this and felt like I got a much better feel for the home. I also bought all of his clothes from marks and spencer and sewed name tags in them as they all tend to go to the laundry at the same time. On each visit we would always go to his room to talk privately and for me to check his wardrobe. The staff were aware that I liked him to look nice and would hunt down any missing clothes.
Sending you both my love

Fanny & Snorts kicking the arse clean out of Andrew’s car… in true grifter fashion clocking up more miles..

Buying a dog carrier of a specific size and shape to fit on the armrest between the front seats of the Porsche suggests they are not planning on parting company with the car soon.

I wonder just how many of those sad plastic tiara wearing old bags who've paid over the odds to stay at the shitoo, watch how these two gluttons travel, gorge themselves and think 'I've been taken for a fool'.

I'm sure if they're in denial their poor husbands who get dragged along and have coughed up a tidy sum must tell them.

Fanny and Snort's become more grotesque week by week. They're all but laughing in their mad fans and patreon's faces.

I wish there were more who've stayed at the Shitoo, that would be brave enough to put their heads above the parapet and voice their opinions.

You can't tell me they all think it's wonderful as most of the time their faces at the dinner table and the forced smiles afterwards say it all.

@Balmoral I think you're not too far from the truth with that, it all makes sense.

I’ve been waiting for years for one of the nursing home relatives to pop up! God I hope and pray Patreon finally shuts her down. I’ve lost hope on the French authorities.

Mummy must have been crap at it ..... her daughter is Nuts and she cannot seem to fix that! I
I don't believe it anyway for she would have to do special training for that and I cannot see old Mummy going back to training.

In the last years of my Mother's life I saw some awful nurses that came into and out of her house for "care" .

I can say as a nurse there are good and bad people like anywhere. I spent 39 years caring for the elderly, was not easy. People can be nasty, aggressive and rude. Hit, bite ,punch and kick... it is hard to be kind, compassionate and caring. But everyone deserves respect. I pray for care givers everywhere to keep calm and try to understand what others are going through

Knowing you read here PhiPhi, I have found you the next must have antique for your trousseau. I know how much you loathe having to use silver silver when setting a table with gold trimmed china. This service is absolutely fabo for your talents. It offers two different size services and is beautiful silver-gilt. The French would call it vermeil but then I’m sure you know that being an expert on all things taste. Your fiancée will be even more impressed with its history as it was originally ordered for Château de Chenonceau. I don’t know that it was over used there, but hey, reflected glory am I right?!? And here’s the kicker, when Fan-opps, Stephanie breaks off the engagement it will hold it’s value so you’ll have something for your troubles. It has the advantage of only costing €25,000. Not even one entire month of Patreon cash, a total bargain. Just tighten the belt for one month, only travel around France and suck it up to spend time in each other’s company. You’ve got this so get in there and snatch these up before patron days! They’ll be so impressed!

I really understand LittleMore Cottage........ my mother had dementia and her personality changed to aggressive , especially towards me who helped her all her life and we got on so well .
It was so difficult and she would not go into a nursing home so care ( when she was not in hospital and that was multiple times as she had very high BP and heart failure) had to come to her home as it was a hour drive to her home but I did it to make sure she was taking her medicine when the nurses were having a hard time.
There were great nurses like you said and sadly Mum had a bad doctor at the hospital that would not sign off on a nursing home . I argued with him so much as Mum had short term memory loss and at night she had "sundowning " and would call me on the phone in the hospital telling me off with the Police etc. - all the nurses knew this but that doctor stood firm.
I even lined up a nice place for Mum to go and stay and she sort of agreed but he cancelled it!
So we took Mum back to her home and the next day I got a call from the care nurse .... Mum was not opening the door to her and she must leave.
I drove over and used my spare key that my Mother did not know I had and she was dead on the floor.
That has been nearly 5 years and I still feel angry at times about that doctor and sad as Mum did not deserve this way to go.
It was very hard to deal with and I do know what care givers go through as I was doing this for years.
Everyone out there that are care givers I send you my love as its so , so hard at times.

Oh Pekey you have just summed up my current situation. My mum although in need of constant care refuses to leave her house and will not engage with the carers. Refusing her medication, her meals etc etc. She is extremely aggressive and nasty, particularly to me. Fire brigade have been twice in the last few months because she was putting food in the microwave for too long and it was catching on fire, police around because of insane phone calls, it just goes on and on. But I’ve been advised by the community psychiatric nurse that all we can do is wait for the crisis to happen. Happy days.

Ntn

The same way any other crime family amasses it. Fraud, extortion, manipulation and good old fashioned thievery.

i think it was the ‘cocktail corner’ that Fanny let slipped the cabinet was from a dear ‘friend’ at the nursing home. Am sure lots of treasures made their way to the Jarvis and Richmond pockets.

The exquisite La Mirande had long been on my bucket list. However, even merely as a dream, it has now been ruined for me - thanks for that Hinge & Bracket ! Who, EVER, in their right minds washes their DOG in the bathroom basin of a luxury 5 Star Hotel ?

A few years ago, Fanny spent an entire flog (filmed during the Hanni/Isabel stay) interviewing the reserved, talented owner of La Mirande. He painstakingly told her how he carefully chose each piece of fabric, wallpaper and paint colour. Not a single inch of that hotel would miss his loving gaze. It’s clearly his life’s work. Fanny more than most, knows exactly how luxurious every inch of that building and the interiors are. Yet she ignored all of this to to let Ratso not only be scrubbed and rinsed in their previously immaculate en-suite but they also didn’t prevent him from constantly shaking himself, thereby spraying water and dog hairs, all over the walls and floor.

As if that wasn’t enough, she then let her rat, er…. dawg , put his wet dog scent on the bed linen and the PILLOW …. I’m sorry but that’s inexcusable somewhere that isn’t your own home (and believe me I’m a dog lover who had her own spaniel sleep on the bed). The complete lack of regard for other’s property - no thought of who else may use that room - or have to clean it afterwards.

It’s made much worse by the fact that she smarmed up to the owner, waxing lyrical over every single thread and bit of wallpaper & then, even knowing that, didn’t even give a flying f—-

I think it was @Lady Avonlea who kindly said she would send a picture of the canine bathroom scene to the GM (Martin Stein) of La Mirande. He will know straight away who Stephanie Jarvis is. I hope he sends her a steam-clean invoice and bill for replacement pillows . I hope they ban her from staying in future.

Appallingly stupid, selfish behaviour from those 2 ridiculous, daft e-begging idiots. Comme d’habitude.

Congratulations @Lady Avonlea for naming the thread - honestly, take the crown, you're the queen of thread naming. An honourable mention goes to @StephaniesSupportConsort for thread name inspirations.

Boo hoo. Stephanie survived her Patreon review. Oh well we live to see another thread.

I thought just for fun I’d describe my day using Fannyspeak.

I awakened this morning to a beautiful case of arthritic hips and rolled haphazardly out of my antique carved mahogany bed with TJ Maxx linens, to find a glorious sunny day had been happening for five hours. I ran into the kitchen to make my morning coffee, whilst I yelled at my $6000 dogs to shut the fuck up. After having coffee and chocolate for morning nibbles, I patiently waited to see if my body would move. After reading the New York Times, Washington Post, and the Apple News feed, I logged into Tattle to see what the bitches and hags had been up to overnight.

After deciding I wasn’t going out in public with a black eye I acquired whilst stepping on a rake two days ago, I did a bit of dog petting. After two hours I realized I was fully awake and began to plan my day. I am so excited I can write again after having a trigger finger mysteriously manifest a month and a half ago. I set out to do my to do list with my newly injected thumb. It was by this time 2:30 in the afternoon. I noted the amazing beauty of the $6000 dogs and told them to shut the fuck up.

Whilst I was making my to do list I noticed a pang of hunger. While I am not intermittently fasting, I decided not to eat because my beautiful creature of a husband likes to eat dinner at 10:00, and doing that will make me turn into a waddler. I went back to my to do list and found I’d already done most of it to my utter happiness. I then proceeded to shop online for my groceries on the most exquisite website, Instacart. Whilst awaiting my delivery, I opened my mail and all the lovely little parcels I purchased whilst shopping on Ambien. I could hardly remember purchasing any of them and they were all beautiful. Especially the new timer for our irrigation system.

I decided to stay in my super comfy sweatpants I had slept in, they are made by Champion. I also purchased them in an Ambien haze, they are p-heautiful!

Oh God. This toxic positivity shit is tiring. I quit.

This new thread is a good time to make a request: If all tattlers could commit to limiting themselves to posting one photo of Philip Jansen each per day, it would certainly help my mental health. There's only some much I can stand of the sight of his lightbulb-shaped noggin.

I vote for this . There's enough ugly in the world to go around. Yet, nothing as hideous as PhiPhi.

As always thank you all for contributing - lovely to see oldies back
Remember we have a wiki, in which we ought to document when her Patreon came under review.
Happy Tattling

Last nights vlog, a bunch of nothing we haven't seen before.
A stupid woman being given more gifts by stupid people.
A Norwegian playing with food trying to make a silk purse out of a sows ear.
A small scottish man who should be gagged.
Chapel restorers .
A hungry cat.
A garden that needs weeding.
A big part of the vlog walking through the woods.
Same old same old menu. That was served late as usual as the gas bottle ran out and Cuz had to replace it, obviously out of Trixie's remit.
Stupid people buying champers.
The best bit, Trixie didn't really have a speaking role and only appeared on stage at the end and I switched off before they started singing happy birthday. Probably had been 'busy' that day scoping out new auctions.

All in all .........
