Well the shake down trip in the new motor home is completed. About 1100 miles and Lesley drove every inch. It was about 550 miles each way and we took two days, stopping and camping one night each way. We got 20MPG on the diesel and it has lots of power and was smooth and quiet. We love the new machine. It is a bit longer than our old one, 24ft vs 20ft for...
State of Connecticut inspectors arrived, gung ho, at the facility this morning - all seven of them. I don't remember having that many. But the process has changed the past two years. Mechanical and building inspection are not done at the same time and the Pharmacy part has already been done.

Trying to get my grass to grow back in the front yard to cover the bald spots that has been looking so darn bad for some time now. We are finally getting a few drops of rain some days while at times the drought is still upon us here in central Texas. I'm trying hard not to buy more grass to put down since my yard is not the worse looking one.

Today is the sixth month since Mum died, yesterday was the eighth month since Ray died, anniversaries of sadness, painful times still to come. No, I am not stuck in the one place it is more like a rollercoaster than ever, Sometimes I am at the top and can see the view ahead, sometimes I am at the bottom and all I can see is the hill ahead I have to climb....
We will be taking Cayden to Florida next month depending on how my doctors apt goes on monday, I have been having trouble catching my breath and I even quit smoking for the most part. Please pray that my trouble breathing is just my new meds they put me on and not anything more serious. Cayden is freaking out that when he wakes up tomorrow or any other...
Dan's surgery was a month ago and he's been in a nursing home for rehab for two weeks. I've seen Dan frustrated, angry, tired, connected to machines with tubes going into and out of his body. I have never, in 36 years, seen him this mean and hurtful. Not just to me, to everyone. He is verbally abusive to everyone at the facility, to Jeff,...
Mike and I have two vehicles both which are very inconvenient when it comes to riding more than two people at a time in them. He has a quad cab Ford Ranger pickup and I have an Isuzu Amigo which is only two door and is also a stick shift. He has, since the stroke and the wedding where he met a large portion of my family, become a lot more family oriented....
I have not been to see my brother since I posted a week ago. I had planned on going at least once last week, but I am just too exhausted
(in every way) to make the 2 1/2 hr trip up. So I have been keeping in touch with phone calls and texts. He is growing weaker every day, but is still aware when he is awake.
Mom has been doing ok. On Saturday, the...

Not realising that I could create a dairy here, I started one elsewhere. If anyone cared to read it there, and comment, I would be so grateful.
I also nurture a faint hope that someone (besides me!) might just find it helpful!

The ray of sunshine is my daughter who came to visit this past weekend. She lives in Michigan and comes 3 or 4 times a year. She is going to England (3rd time) with her boyfriend this month to visit his parents. It would be hard to visit her as her condo has BRs upstairs and only 1 handrail.
I had a project for her this visit (as usual). lol We went...

We are less than a month away from the 9 year anniversary of Gary's brainstem stroke, and I am finding it hard to believe that we both have survived this long. Doctors originally said "If he makes it through the first two weeks, he will most likely not live more than a year - 3 years at best." That may have been true if I had placed him in...
I think the blog part of my brain is broke because I just can’t seem to get it going! Not much has been going on except when my sisters came. I posted a picture of the 3 of us in my gallery – none of us look alike. The one on my right (Sonnie) is my half-sister who is 75 and lives in Michigan. She sure looks good and hasn’t had...
Our trip south last week proved that the harder something is to accomplish, the more you grow as a result. Ray seems sort of sad to be home now with nothing much going on anymore, and no non-stop blabbing 24/7 (although I'm in charge of the neighborhood yard sale this weekend, so we're not totally vegetating). However yesterday, back here at home,...
Litterally, it's a blur. With so much to do, one day bleeds into the next and I forget how long it's been since I blogged.
AIR CONDITIONER: I have been trying to get an air conditioner/furnace installed for weeks, and delays keep happening. Everyday for 3 weeks I've been expecting them and ready, only to get a phone call with another...

I am Readyto try and see what I can do time will tell, I was just curious what everybody else's...
Thursday, I traveled to a doctors appointment on Access Link. What that is,is a public transportation geared towards the disabled and elderly. It was defined in the law of the Disability Act that areas that have public transportation, to have a service that follows the transit line, with fare, for those who can't do it unassisted....
This is a good caregiver/survivor song or just a good tune.
