A realtor who is looking for a house came and looked at ours, they live in Dallas right now. Hope this family is the one that want to buy. Have a great evening, hugs all

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Thursday and it is going to be a great day. My co worker is suppose to be back in the office today. I think she is going to be very distracted. I think her husband is still in the hospital. Joe and I yesterday offered to come help clean house, or prepare a meal, or go grocery shopping for her if she needed us to. I am not overly fond of this co worker as I said before. Sometimes we butt heads but she is down and out right now. So we offered to help. She of course said she was fine but I told her the offer stands as long as she needs and we will come help.

@Dianedoessmiles1 - I have had that burnout as well. I get it. I think she is not really burned out but upset that he is being so stubborn about things. She says all the time that she tells her kids to just put her in a home if she gets this bad because she does not want to make them do what she is doing with their Dad. So I can see she struggles sometimes.

Well I hope you all have a wonderful Thursday.

@Tabatha_Cain, I am so sorry she's going through so much with her Dad. We DID put ours into one, be it an extremely nice one. It was a pay cash only situation of only 12 residents in an old Southern home, it was very nice. Dad did NOT like that AT ALL!! He still always to be at home, but it was no longer safe. He never agreed with us, but it was much better for him. I do not get why our parents generation hate places so much, and many think their children are going to take care of them. Sure, if it was simply take these meds, run errands, Dr appointments, but they are getting hurt at home, it takes such a deep emotional toll on one. I had offered to move to FL to be with my Dad (I was in Colorado at the time) but, he didn't want that either. I am so sorry she's going through all of that. I've told my GD its a NO question thing, nursing home me!! She does NOT need that. She thought because I raised her it was the least she could do, but raising a child, who is able to dress themselves, go to school etc. is not at all the same as having an adult size body, but not being able to remain independent barely if at all. Arriving home to see someone has fallen (or with me it was a phone call about Dad "he laid on the floor for 24 hours" he had the "I've fallen and I can't get up" thing, but refused to use it. Okay!! I AM NOT doing this to my very sweet GD. It was super kind of you and Joe to offer to help her. TY TY TY TY for being so kind to her. Many do not offer to do that. I imagine if you brought her a meal to eat that night, though she may act embarressed etc. it'd touch her heart deeply.

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Friday and I am so looking forward to this weekend. So much I need to get done and some time off that will be great. I am so needing the time off. I have been busting my butt at work. My co-worker came into work yesterday and she skipped her lunch to leave early. She has not slept yet. Her Husband is the one who fell and while in the ER they discovered he is severely dehydrated, his kidneys are shrinking, his brain is shrinking and there is something going on with the white matter in the brain, his calcium is so high it could kill him and his potassium is very low. They are not sure why the calcium is so high. So they put him in critical care. After 2 days in the hospital and iv's in both arms they are still having to use a machine to find veins if they need to get another line started. They told her to get his affairs in order. That although they are going to try their best this may be end of life for him. She cried yesterday morning. I could not imagine my best friend my husband dying. I know my husband has gone through that already and he knows how tough it is. So we offered to help her in anyway we can. I had her load me up on any and all things I could get for the office. Deposit bags and International Drivers Permits. Things that have to be managed and assigned by her since she is the lead MR just in case her husband passes. She gladly got me all those things and I told her to just take it easy and just do the little bits she could. She went home and I am hoping got some sleep. She is suppose to be back today as this shortened shift will be for the duration of her husband being in the hospital.

@Dianedoessmiles1 - I am really hoping her husband pulls out of this, but I am sure with everything going on that they doctors are not thinking he will otherwise they would not have told her to get his affairs in order. I pray for her every night. She is not my favorite person at work, but she does have a lot of knowledge since she has been there 20 years with the company. We just have clashing personalities and I really try not to let it bother me. I usually just go home and complain about her to Joe.

Well I hope you all have a wonderful Friday.

@Tabatha_Cain I can't imagine how your co-worker must be feeling. I have been with Don all but 19 years of my life, I couldn't imagine life without him. I will pray for her and him, you are very kind to help her out. Hugs

Hope you all are having a great day. It has rained on and off but able to go for a walk with Kayla. I am progressing on my Dia de Los Muertos Conqueror walk. Slow but steady.


Hugs and blessings

I'm so sorry what your coworker is going through & her husband @Tabatha_Cain . I worked in ICU for 10 years. I will keep her in my prayers. So good of you to offer help, especially since you clash. My father never wanted to go into a nursing home so when he saw people in his house that weren't there, we moved our family of 4 kids & 2 dogs to his house. Unfortunately, he only lived another month. Turns out he had a stroke. My husband resuscitated him when he collapsed but he never came to in the hospital. Please keep us informed

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Sunday and Joe and I have church in person. I get to work in the kids wing while he is on cameras for both services. It is going to be a great day. We have loaded up half our load of wood into Joe's car to take to his parents after service. They needed fire wood for the winter since they use their fire place to help them heat their house. We had several big branches cut off our tree last month and had the guy leave the wood. He took away the brush but left the actual wood pieces. Joe's car is sagging right now. It is kinda funny. Hope we don't have issues on the way up. I am glad we are taking it up to them though. No way we would go through all this wood.

@Dianedoessmiles1 - Thank you. I always try to see the positive, because if you don't your life will be miserable. Life is what you make it. Surround yourself with light, love and happiness and that is what you will have. It is ok to feel down in a moment because yes depression is real, but you have to try your best not to dwell there. Get help, see a doctor if you dwell there too long. Hit up a friend or something.

Well I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday.

Tabatha

Happy Sunday and many blessings. I got another post card on my Dia de Los Muertos walk.

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Monday and it is the beginning of the week. I am definitely going to try and get some massive things done at work today. Then when I get home we are going to tackle the yard with all the leaves as best we can. No rain is predicted for the next 3 days. We have that long to get it all done. I am sure we can do it. We have the leaf blower from Joe's parents. We really need to invest in one ourselves. This weekend went well. I was able to relax and we still got all the laundry done.

@Kurtize - It is so awesome that you are doing this walk. I am glad to see you can take your time on it too. I think Joe and I are going to start one in the spring. We cannot really go walking in the winter.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Thank you. I really do try to have a positive outlook on life. It can be so draining when you are unhappy and depressed. I know from experience. I spent years in a depressive mood. I feel much better now and the exercise really does help.

Well I hope you all have a wonderful Monday.
