Day 139: Le Tired
Today was a good, busy day, and I am freaking exhausted as I type this. Mom continues to improve. She's eating a lot more food, we went for a walk in the park down by the South Bay where we watched RC airplane enthusiasts take their prized planes for a spin, and then...
Day 138: Rubber Band Incident
We snapped a rubber band tonight during the last drug/session. Perfect timing, right? At the very end of the day when I'm ready to go snuggle with my pillow. I had visions of heading into the hospital to meet with our poor doctor, getting back to the trailer for bed,...
Day 137: Time Traveler
I can't help but feel a bit like I've traveled into the future here, these past couple days taking care of my mom. She continues to do well, which is great. But she's pretty helpless overall. Needs her food prepared, needs to be woken up to get up and move around....
Day 136: No place like home
Mom got to come home today. That's the headline. I did some narration work to start the day off, and by the time I got to go see my mom in the late morning, she was bright eyed and bushy tailed and reporting that she felt "much better." After a trip over to the...
Day 135: Defeat
I lost out to the craziness of the week. I haven't written my requisite hour for the past two days...I haven't made or found the time. I'm also dreadfully, dreadfully behind on my editing work; a full week behind, if not more should I be unable to rally for the rest...
Day 134: Le Tired
Just exhuasted 😛 Didn't get much work done today, so hoping that will change tomorrow, since I have some major catching up to do. But, there's still time. It can be done. Mom continues to improve in the hospital. They transferred her out of the ICU tonight, which is...
Day 133: Surgery
So, today, my mom had the surgery the we've been working so hard for the past...oh, 7 or 8 months or so to get her to have. It's done. It's half of the huge load off. The other half will obviously be seeing, once she's recovered, that it's worked as well as we needed...
Day 132: The Bay
So, for the next week, or so, I'm up in the Bay Area living with my parents in their "one bedroom" trailer, helping take care of my mom whilst she recovers from the surgery which is happening tomorrow morning. Early. In fact, I should definitely be asleep right now....
Day 131: Squirrel!
Indeed. It was one of those days, where there was so much to be across so many different areas, I felt rather distracted. But, I wasn't, actually. All of the things I got done today needed to be done before I leave tomorrow. It was lots of editing, changing out...
Day 130: Freaky Friday
Today was a weird day. I'd worked four 12 hours days in a row and I guess I kinda hit a wall 😛 Didn't get much work done today, but I did get to host a couple out of town guests for breakfast, which is always fun. These two folks were down from Humboldt, and I rarely...
