    Yeh, I'm up and dressed and have done the same for Nannie. It is exceptionally BRIGHT out there, just in case anyone was wondering. I did get up earlier to feed Momo and pray she did her biznezz in the proper place. Then I slept for another hour and ...

    😒 .) I took a Xanax with a cup of hot coffee when I got in, hoping to tone down a bit of the BLAH feelings. SiL said I am probably starting to feel the reality of hubby being forever gone, and that's part of grieving process. Yeah, I keep stubbing my...

    Have been awake for two hours, but still in bed....have written checks to pay bills. Going to bank and grocery store. SiL and BiL are here since noontime, but I haven't gone downstairs to greet them yet. Going to get dressed and go out to take care o...

    Fifty-six degrees and rainy today. Quiet day. Called SiL because when she called me early this morning I wasn't awake enough to remember what she told me about coming over this week. She said she will come over around noon tomorrow and stay until abo...

    The casserole was good and very easy. I didn't put it in the oven, though. (whole wheat elbows, diced ham, corn, peas and black olives). As my son-in-law used to say: "It filled a hole." We watched a College Gymnast's Championship, Nannie kept s...

    Darn, Ratz, and Phooey! It is just after 2 PM and SiL has not called or come by. I got Nannie up and she was already dressed and dry, so after a trip to the bathroom to change one pad, I brought her out to her recliner; She was giving me a play-by-pl...

    I'm awake and lounging in bed. Have already fed Momo, and put out a tray with Nannie's pills, a spoon, a glass, and napkin, ready for Nannie's breakfast....because I THINK this is a day when SiL is supposed to come over and get her up. I certainly HO...

    I read somewhere recently that Magnesium helps lower A-1c as well as statins do. I dunno, but thought it was interesting, so I am mentioning it here, because of the above conversations. Maybe look it up and see? G'night!

    Good Afternoon~ dianah, a housekeeper would be nice.....would be like having a wife to do the chores! SiL says she has Nannie on the waiting list at Senior Center Daycare, and that would be two days a week, on which she would come over and get N...

    Okay, got up and started in by emptying all the wastebaskets, put away and hung up all of Nannie's clothes that were out draped here and there from her "midnight prowling". Her sheets are damp, but not wet-wet, so I peeled them back and turned on the...

    I can't even recall what I did yesterday; I feel like I didn't do much of anything, and I feel even more like not doing anything today! By now I have created double the mess and it is hanging over my head like a dark cloud. Suffocating! I have ...

    SiL came over to shower and dress Nannie and took her over to their house. No poop for SiL to clean up. I showed her the photos I took of Nannie's floor with all the poop all over the place. YIKES! Anyway, I have to go out and pick up a refill a...

    Okay, apparently all the mag-citrate is not gone from Nannie's system. After supper she said, "I feel like I have to go to the bathroom." And in the bathroom, taking down her britches, I was confronted by MORE loose stool almost everywhere in the 'Ne...

    Wellllll, "I did it *MY* way!!" Mostly because I had no choice.😫 And I must confess, at times when working in a facility cleaning up after a patient, I actually used face cloths which I then THREW AWAY! What a rebel!
