Mom at about the halfway mark. Only five of us. |
Mark has gone through a rough
patch lately. He's had some health problems that have rendered him pretty much
house bound. He was getting better until that Bell's Palsy thing hit him last
Saturday. The good thing is that he is slowly, very slowly, been improving all
week. However, he hasn't been able to cook for me, he can't go shopping (Possible blessing there), and he has
turned over the entire running of the house to me. I was brilliant when I was
only taking care of myself, but now I have myself, two dogs, and Mark. At times
I have felt like getting in the car and just driving away until I hit an ocean.
So many interruptions to my Facebook time.
"Alan, I need some water."
"Alan, fetch my meds."
"Alan, time for my sponge bath."
"Alan, feed me."
"Alan, help me put on my pants."
Again, I am in awe of Mom. Last week I went
through four bottles of wine, a few beers, and a couple of vodka cocktails.
Really Mom, only one bottle of Mogen David?
She stretched it with some 7UP ;)
