On a Monday afternoon


  • Called the vet to schedule Daisy's bladder stone surgery again.  We go in tomorrow morning. Prayers appreciated.  
  • Waiting to hear from social worker about my mom's release.  I'm the go-to person for her to call.
  • Taking Spring Break this week.
  • Figuring next week will be toast with Mom back at her house.
  • Full of negative thinking in regards to her discharge, and having a difficult time getting my head around it.
  • But going to enjoy this week---freedom from care, so to speak.
  • Tired of apologizing for how I feel about her going home, but with an experimental new situation, hard to think otherwise.
  • Sure didn't see all of this coming.
  • Deep breaths.
  • Need to remember to lean on the Lord and not take this all on myself.  I do have a pretty swell support system in my husband and children.
  • It's the unknowns that throw me, you know?
  • Oh, and by the way, am in the midst of writing a blog about Mom going home.  Figured it would be good to have it all down in one place.  Other friends have done that, and I've benefited from their sharing.  Will share the link with you, if you like.  Say so in the comments and I'll email you the link. Not wanting to share it here...would like it to remain moderately anonymous.  Some raw emotions shared there, but it is a pretty raw situation.
  • Well, anyway...take care.  Enjoy the warmth if you're being blessed with it.  Time to go outside. :)
