Ok, so I havent been here as much, and Im in and out again.
My mom is sick. Art is patying the visit before the rain, and its been hot then cold, so she is really fit to be tied. We have gotten a lady that lives there to do the housework and laundry for her, 35. a week, and she wants it ever other week. (Im gratefull that that is ALL she is charging. I thought prolly about 50 or so.)
the manager met me and told my mom how concerned I was on the phone, and she told her that if she needs anything, call.
I went over there today, and most of this week my mom was talking about eating crackers and cheese or peanut butter for breakfast. I finally asked her, why not fry an egg and have egg and toast? My mom had not had eggs for 2 weeks, no milk for 2 or 3 weeks and was out of bread. She hurt too bad to go to the store, therefore she just ate crackers. (GRRRRRRRRR- tell me mom...I will shop and cook for ya) She is 69 and doesnt like asking for help all the time.
I went to the store for her today. 100 dollars for HEB, plus some cold cuts from walmart ( I dont likewalmart but my mom likes the cold cuts and cheeses- so i took her some.) Got her some chicken fingers also.
so, keep her in your prayers and know that I will prolly be there most of the time. Plus that post about the cocoa and the the guy- that was my stray. we had a fight, BUT---
we have also made up, both sides looked at their crap and owned it- and we are playing nice now. (He hates my sig, he doesnt want me wantiing naked men, he wants m,e and him naked. sound like a fun play time......)
dealing with parents is a hard thing at times, especialy if they are as stubborn as ourselves. patience is sometrhing i had to learn in dealing with my mom with her problems becouse she can be down right grumpy and difficult at times. i hope your mom gets well soon
Thank you all. Yes, MP..patiences is what I am needing. I did learn alot from her as I grew up-
indepence, strong will and of course speaking my mind and holding my ground.
She finally has said and accepted that she needs to have some help, that she also is worried because she is seeing the differance in herself too.
Its almost 2 years since she got out of the hospital, and that my Dad died (april is the month)
so, the holidays are hard, and she did just get a kitten for compainonship (of course I caught it and she couldnt say not to her) and this week she is being spayed and declawed. She is using my vet so that they ahve a record of her (her name is "Angel" I think its a totaly fitting name) just in case. She checks my mom and loves my mom- as much as cats do. but she really eeps my mom laughing.
Its jsut a hard thing to see how much she has slowed in three years, and that she can see it and worry........
I will keep you posted. I posted this because I really need the support here as well in real life too. The stray is wonderful- he and her get along GREAT......and my brother lives in San anotnio and my other bro does check but most of the care comes to the female children for some reason....... but I dont mind.
(He hates my sig, he doesnt want me wantiing naked men, he wants m,e and him naked. sound like a fun play time......)
... you said he doesn't like your sig line ... 
... 
oh yes, you must always satisfy the monkey. 
but I dont mind.
