of my craziness.
It's necessassary to get what needs to be done in my day ....done.
Looking around the house I can see alot I should be doing while my DIL is working.
Today she is traveling to Arcadia and Naples which are further South to nursing homes.
She called the nursing home the other night and spoke to hubby's nurse of that hour and mentioned he had had no shower and was in the same clothes.
Showers are Wed. and Saturday for him and he had no street clothes in his closet ....JUST PJ"s was why he wasn't dressed.
She explained that his street clothes and bed clothes were one in the same as other materials hurt his skin where he has severe neuropathy in his legs.
Yesterday evening he was SHOWERED ( A very Happy Camper ) and had clean pj's on when we visited him before our Weight Watcher meeting. :0)
We brought him up a Kentucky Fried Chicken meal. On the menu was grilled cheese or a hot dog.
One he can have and one he can't, so we thought he would enjoy the chicken more and he seemed too.
Grand daughter Corinne is quitting Weight Watchers....even though she lost a half pound and HAD BEEN ON A CRUISE :0). She really isn't over weight . Her troubles will begin later on in life.
DIL Deb has been at her goal weight or below for three weeks now, so she too is not going to go anymore.
No words have been spoken, BUT I am sure someone will still take me there.
I LOST 2 pounds 4 ounces. TaDa! Which.....if I drank any water and walked or, or, or... would be more of a loss each week.
I AM TWO OUNCES AWAY FROM A TEN POUND WEIGHT LOSS :0)
I am NOT a water drinker! sigh! Got some Crystal Lite peach flavor. Now it's up to me to grab a jug and mix it up to drink. DIL Deb makes her own flavor and drinks it when ever she is home and takes it with her to drink while driving. The good stuff to DRINK WHILE DRIVING. ;0)
The hike from the parking area into the Rest Home/Rehab and the hike down corridors to hubby's room is ( I guess ) NOT considered enough excercise. ;0) Dang sure tires me out at the end of the day.
Can do it better before noon. I shit you not!
I will ask today if his doctor will let him go out Sunday afternoon. Keep forgetting to ask at the nurses station. :0(
Tomorrow will be my second oldest's birthday.
Happy 56th Birthday Larry. March 4, 1955
The time is speeding away. My bed to still make, my shower anddddd here I sit. sigh!
My son has gone off to his real estate meeting, but will be back before noon and I will visit with hubby before he goes for his afternoon P.T.
Then back again tonight.
This takes a BITE OUT of my day, but SUCH IS LIFE! I shit you not!
That's All Folks!
The ramblings of a mom of 9 by her KIDS that are STILL making her climb walls ,even as adults. Said I DO 3xs and I WANT OUT 2 xs. Have learned there is no such thing as a Rose Garden. My motto is Life Is Too Short To Be Miserable. When the bad outweighs the good it is time to shit can em. Laugh with me or at me, welcome to my world.
I AM WOMAN! Hear me ROAR! February 2012

congrats on the weight loss..get some rest too
ReplyDeleteIf your having to "visit your hubby" then I am going to have to go back and time just to see what the heck is going on!
ReplyDeleteYou know, when my G'ma was in the nursing home and they were suppose to assist her into the shower they would ask her if she wanted one and she'd say NO. She went weeks without a full shower. WEEKS. Just giving herself a "spit" bath she called it. So I started going over and making her take one...
Not that that has anything to do with anything...
I wasn't a water drinker either until I joined WW, but I persevered and now I can't be without a bottle or a glass by me. It makes a world of difference to how you feel (and look). Keep taking care of ((((((you)))))).
