Long story ... long...
yesterday we went with d mom and she was mighty cranky - everything negative - she ate and felt better and then got cranky again - then a coffee and a snack for her at 4 pm at Pete's coffee in Winnetka (we took an alternate road home because the highway was impassable) and she was content again. dd younger made her realize she was like that commercial where "you are not yourself" when your hungry and d mom laughed and we all laughed. I have to admit I said a swear word under my breath while driving towards downtown because she was so negative and ornery - my goodness - swearing is not my normal - and dd younger was in the front seat with me - "Mom, swearing, is NOT a great colour on you"! She was right. Thank goodness we all ended up laughing.
Mom did find the sweaters she was looking for which was great. now it is off my mind. We had a lovely lunch. it turned into a lovely day.
dd older is having a tough time at work as she is still stuck doing most of the 2 jobs even though they hired an expensive employee to take over the job she is not supposed to be part of. the woman seems unable and not wanting to stay even the 8 hours and can't keep up physically with the job which is intense any way. praying dd finds her way. we shall see.
