Ponderings and Troubles

Well, here I am at my desk. I just talked to my mom. She's been out of skilled nursing for 5 days. Actually she sounded ok today. I have been talking to her everyday about living in assisted living. Nice place, where we went to visit last Friday. In fact that's where she had been for the last 25 days. As long as she takes her pills for her congestive heart problem, she'll be ok. She's a little shakey in the memory dept, however.

I called my dad and he sounded terrible. He hardly has any voice. He's scheduled to go to the doctor today. I called his wife and she is doing ok. Sounded better than usual. No return call from my cousin.

My son is bothering me and all of the things that go on. I called him on his birthday. He had emailed me and said that maybe we could get together around the holidays, so we could see him, his girlfriend and their new baby. Well, he told me that the baby was taken away from them?? Now in foster care. I don't know what to believe.

I don't dare focus too much on all of these situations, way too sad. I go back to work tomorrow and hopefully back to reality, the kind that seems better than the way it has been for the last few weeks.

My daughter and her family are doing fine. We went to a birthday party for the youngest, so cute! Will post pictures soon of the quilt I made and the cute faces that make me smile and feel warm and fuzzy inside!

Actually some weird fuzziness went on today. I had my mom's storage closet on her outside patio cleaned out and squirrels were nesting in there! They were surprised when we saw them and one of them ran out.
