Monday, I moved in with mom to help take care of her. I had forgotten how teadious it is to take care of some one who can't take care of themself. The first two nights I didn't get hardley any sleep. Mom was awake the whole first night and the second night mom had gotten a fever and I wasn't sure that the neighbor hadn't given her walking pneumonia.
My eating has become somewhat wonky to say the least. I have decided that I am going to go back to drinking two protein shakes and eating only one meal a day. So far I'm been drinking a protein shake and eating only one meal a day. It takes so long to get everything ready with my mom and sister. Geez.
If my sister wakes up early, she instantly wants to drink water, tea, OJ, more tea....etc!!! Then it's up to both of them to decide what they want to eat. I'm used to a meal for breakfast, and they are used to toast and coffee. Hmmmm, that is going to change!!!!
But mostly breakfast is first thing in the morning, lunch is usually skipped because if I take them shopping, it takes all day!!!! So then we eat an early dinner and that is the end of the meals.
Trying to make a fire in the wood stove every morning is a task within it's self. It took me almost 3 hours to finally get the stove burning good enough that I didn't have to watch it constantly. The problem is that mom had bought some wood that was not seasoned and stored it outside in the rain. I have bought some hot wood to help get it hot enough to sort of dry out the wood, but it still takes forever!!!!
But enough complaining. Things aren't too bad, just different. I am looking forward to going home Saturday to spend some time with my hubby and dog. I really miss them!!!
My internet signal is only one bar so I may not be alble to post everyday, but I will try.
Until then, I hope things are going well for all. Now what's for lunch?!?!! LOL!!!!
