Hi Stephanie,
ReplyDeleteI have been super busy from mid April until now -- and more busy days to come. Helped arrange help for my uncle in Florida by getting on the phone and emails, beginning mid April. I was IN Florida from April 23 to May 7, helping and arranging, and visiting my uncle. My uncle is quite ill. I hope you have been well.
Hello MikeB. Sorry to hear of all your family challenges. It can't be easy, I'm sure. Hoping you will get a chance to enjoy a sweet Mother's Day, or at least a well-deserved relaxing weekend.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Stephanie. Seems like every year I get busier and busier helping my relatives. Don't get me wrong; I do it willingly and with love, but it's draining at times. And the paperwork and problems never end when dealing with doctors, nurses, caregivers, bills, etc.
ReplyDeleteI was pretty busy again today. My second car, which is 23 years old, had a battery that was shot in April, but I put off dealing with it because I had to attend to something more important -- my uncle's needs. Today, I picked up a new battery at the shop, and I will install it in the old car on Monday.
Tomorrow I have a lot of paperwork to do on account of my uncle, but I will enjoy a mom's day dinner out with my wife and our son, daughter-in-law, and grandson.
Hopefully by the middle of next week I can take a breather for a few days before starting work on my own backlog of work.
Enjoy your weekend, too.
Hi MikeB, a catching-up note here! I know that now matter how much we are willing to do it- things are very complicated and frustrating these days. Hope you are taking good care of yourself and your wife through it all.
