I'm tired of cooking/preparing 3 meals a day. It's just the two of us but boy oh boy can that woman eat!! She stays slimish, I get fattish. It's bad enough I do everything here much less start making her one thing and me the other. At times I feel guilty when I buy her fast food cuz of the nutritional value....not to mention I eat it too.
at worst i could be the most innovative , boozemaking sob who ever lived under the white river bridge . this elder is the second most priority in my life after my mother . i have sons , g kids , they need this lesson .
F**K MONEY ..
i know its a necessity but itll come closer to bringing you misery than happiness ..
my sons are watching me more closely than you think ..
I tell you what you can find all kinds of gowns on the internet...the hospital ones I got Mama are perfect! They are very pretty prints and kind of a seersucker fabric so much more comfortable than the "hospital" gowns...I still use her pretty soft knit ones too but after all the yammering by the bath aids and knowing it is harder and they don't have the time I just gave in and found a buy five get one free deal and so far I am loving those little boogers...very easy care too. I guess I'll be packing them for her "spa" visit...I told her that my brother and I had to go and get all my pretty things to use here and so as we wanted to make sure she was well looked after we were letting her go for a little spa vacation but that she would be back before she knew it. I know there will be some confusion but hopefully not too much and I will make sure she is tucked in Monday and they assured me they would call me and let me know how she is doing on Tuesday..the day of the big move...also if there were any changes in her health I would be notified. I know she will be ok...it's just the worry wart nature of me..
yep...payday is my favorite....I was excited when I found those nut rolls in a bag for a dollar until I realized there were only five little ones in the bag..heck I could have gotten the enormous bar for 65 cents ..heck...oh well....we must be sisters Jeanette.... :)
cindyoh..Mama is sleeping more these days it seems...it scares me sometimes, but when she wakes she seems to feel good so I guess that is the goal...she seems to fare better to let her live on her terms, as long as her needs are met and she is clean and well fed, I am trying to let her "do her own thing" and be here when she needs (or wants) me...
hope, honey.... you'veo got me googleing gowns... for ME and Mom!!
Shhhh............she finally went to bed and so far isn't worried those people are going to kill her.... I LOVE those nut rolls!! My fave candy bar is the Payday ya know! Salty n sweet..... mmmm
You are a dear soul hope
I'd rather give away all I have than barter with people over it. It's just easier.
My interviewing of a part time CG is ....depressing at most.. She called and cancelled tonight's meet n greet... why? Her charge fell... really? Someday's it's just too much.
this seems trivial but my new used saw gave me some guff today . i traded it for something new . about all im makin out of wood cutting is firewood for myself and upgraded equiptment . a used saw is not an upgrade . wont fall for that again ..
JeanetteB.......oh do I ever know what you're saying there....it never fails when I am my most exhausted ...those are the exact times Mama gets in to one of her off moods....she doesn't have them often...but seems she always chooses the times I am beyond wore out when she is her most fractious.... :)
Oh well. I expect he gets fed up with middle-aged ladies drooling over him.
