1. Mom had her surgery finally, and she is hopefully on the upswing.
2. I am getting the hang of dealing with two households. It is challenging, but notes and asking questions to parents seems to work. Mostly.
3. Schedule for doing things has settled a bit. Again, lots of notes for myself, and a calendar helps.
4. The nurses at both hospitals she's been at could not have been nicer. Especially when I am standing, probably looking shell shocked, trying to figure out what, who, and how...
5. Glad my husband loaned me a car with good mileage, I am on the road every day for a while.
6. I am so thankful for several friends checking in on me, some in person, some via text, but they care, even a friend from India.
7. With all the extra walking and doing things for Dad, I have lost some weight. 'Cuz it sure ain't because I'm eating differently!
8. I have taken time with Dad, just to talk and such. Not the way I would have chosen, but it is time that we can do stuff together.
9. Ding is (mostly) very friendly when I get home, I think she misses me when I am on the go so much.
10. Husband has been a trooper, dealing with my being on the go, several phone calls a day, notes and paper about, occasionally making dinner, because I nod off after sitting down...
So, enjoy your week, and be thankful!
