That would be considered a talent at my house. :laugh2:
 
I'm thinking that my barley-lentil vegetable soup in hot chicken broth is just the perfect dinner for a chilly rainy evening.

I think you need your own personal force field. Don't let the fact that they haven't been invented yet stop you from using one! :) :giggle:
 
thinking about what to write for my anthropology essay.. hmm
 
I am thing I want some of Deafskeptic's soup! It is perfect on this gloomy, cold day. I have had 5 cups of tea, and am a about tomake a cup of green tea. Yummy
 
I am thinking about my mother's doctor's appointment tomorrow. It's with her PCP and I get to mention things that will upset my mother. I really believe that her dementia is escalating and that she is moving towards "Sundowner's". She's usually fine early in the day and when we talk about her "not there" moments or times, she gets very upset and that's why I somewhat dread this appointment. Dinner time is the worst these days.
 
thinking that the laser treatment i had yesterday was a success.. the scars on my upper thigh seem to be fading!

Hope that the doctor can give you some insight on how to deal with that, Kristina. It must be hard.
I'm thinking about how lucky I am to have such good kids. I'd like them even if they weren't my kids. I'm not sure how I got so lucky.

Me too...(my kids)...I feel so lucky they don't run the streets and do or sell dope...go to school everyday, don't cuss...ahh...so many good qualities and even go to Church without my "prodding" them about it.

Sometimes, I stand back and look at all 3 of them together, and note how clean they are, get along well with each other....take their dinner plates to the kitchen and clean their table matts...and when they "smile"...those white teeth...I feel so immensely blessed.
 
thinking thinking thinking thinking and my mind is going in different directions. So exhausting to think about so many things that need to be done in such a short time.
 
How happy that Boy Kitty's eye infection is healing.

Turns out, in my mother's confusion, she refused to call to get authorization for refills on an expired prescription that she was supposed to take to help keep her ammonia levels balanced. The doctor says that not having them balanced will create cognitive delays as well as blood flow problems. Most people don't need to think about it, but with her Hep C and cirrhosis, she does need to worry. He has now told her that I am in charge of her medicines and she agreed to it. He has also advised the pharmacy, that only he or another doctor can cancel a prescription, unless I bring in a signed doctor's note and they call to verify, or if I have a death certificate.

She has also agreed to stay out of the kitchen when I fix any meals and will not try to "help". She does agree that I need to get the kids more involved with helping and also more involved with cooking. She asked, in front of the doctor, if it was okay for her to keep on doing the laundry. He asked me and I told him, that I could handle the problems with that. She confuses daughter's and my underclothes and tends to fold things inside out.
 
I'm also thinking and wishing I had some Visine or something. My eyes are burning bad from crying for a few hours through a book.

Sounds like a productive appointment. It's important for your MIL to do something and laundry is a safe chore.

MIL does her own laundry and cooking. This was my mother I was talking about. I would never attempt to do MIL's laundry as she uses a soap I can't even breathe in and she has to use both fabric softener in the washer and those crappy dryer sheets.


My mother is slowing down quite a bit and we are all beginning to prepare to take over what she does. The doctor's are now making her appointments overlapping, but 6 months apart from the same. Basically she will see her primary care, then 3 months later her hematologist/Hospice doctor, then 3 months later the primary care again. As she declines further, they will move it up to 2 months between each other. Doc told me today, that she could go for another 2-4 years at the rate I am taking care of her. He said that's real good. When he first saw her and based on the reports from her doctors in Missouri, they didn't figure she would last 1-2 years at all. She did lose weight this time around and he wants me to keep an eye on that.
 
I am thinking about going to a concert in Louisiana this weekend if I can get a friend to go with me. We would leave mid-day Saturday, drive down there, watch the concert, stay the night in a motel down there then drive back Sunday morning/afternoonish. I'm thinking I could hit AR Hwy 7 all the way to the border then stay on Louisiana 2 I think the rest of the way.
 
Thinking about the bricklaying job I did this afternoon. Felt like 2 pounds of cheese and 10 vic's.

It sucks.
 
Just texted my friend, she's supposed to let me know if she can go, and then I'm supposed to let one of the vocalists know if I am even coming. Tomorrow I have to call the convention center regarding tickets for concert if they have to be purchased beforehand or if I can purchase them at the door. Tomorrow is going to be :dizzy:

I'm also updating my iPhone to iOS 5. Taking FOREVER!!!!!
