Good morning, I am not hiding behind the couch anymore. Instead, I am merely flopped on it, like an old coat. That is an improvement. Really!
I will try to make this brief since, like I said yesterday, no one should have to deal with my grumpiness day in and day out. My mom is not getting the procedure done today, it will be tomorrow. The hospital gave her an Rx for some medicine that would "coat" the kidneys but none of the pharmacies carry it. when she called the nephrologist's office, they told her that she doesn't need the medicine, it is antiquated. My mom needed a day to get her head straight so the procedure is set for tomorrow.
My brother is not giving her space (Italian men, stubborn and bossy!! Ugh!!) and they ended up fighting. OTOH-- my wacky DD had her laughing her butt off, with my mom calling her a little s***head and the rats tiny s***heads and that I am am the big s***head. hahaha!! That sounds much more like my mom and she needed that cheering up from Cait.
Gary is still working on my computer. It is up and running today but we need to start re-installing things which is where it might get tricky. So far, the only thing I lost was all of my Firefox Bookmarks. That might be a good thing since there were so many that are completely outdated. It will be good to start fresh.
Do you remember that I planted a pack of marigold seeds into the planter on the patio? They are getting ginormous, I had no idea that they got so big. I have been transplanting them in the yard and yesterday, I saw the cutest little - larvae? It was fluorescent pink. No idea what it was but I snapped a picture. When I get all of the camera and stuff installed I will upload and share it. I also got to chat with a little toad as he was hopping around. ( Maybe it was a she, I didn't ask for their pronouns
)
I felt like crud all day yesterday and somewhat better today. Not a plan to do anything today. I already want to take a nap but you know that I won't. hehe.
Gratitudes:
-my kids. My goodness, I look at them and am so full of love and how proud I am at how they have grown up, how they value and love their g-parents, all of them
-that my mom is going to get the procedure done and isn't fighting it. that is HUGE!
-that my mom can talk to me, really talk and that I know it helps her (even if I get bossy and stubborn at times as well.)
Hugs to all of you!!
