Progressing here... not exactly FINISHING... but progressing, slowly but surely.
Took dmom to PT again today, then back to ass't living to get another load of stuff to bring home, including the wheelchair, which dmom said later she was glad I got, b/c he foot (OTHER foot, not the one from recent surgery) is now bothering her soooo much.
OH. MY. GOODNESS. I just don't think I can deal with another surgery... and recovery... and her not driving for 6 weeks, etc...
I won't think about that now... So -- progress --
* got her back home and settled in again, movers will get her furniture back to her tomorrow morning so dbro will have a bed to sleep in tomorrow night!
* got hand-painted Christmas ornament for dnephew, which a friend here in town did for me
* one of dnephew's gifts arrived by UPS, so now I am only waiting on one thing for him, and I FINALLY found the company I ordered from and they promise it WILL arrive in time. (It is only a pair of socks, but I need it b/c he isn't getting all that much anyway.)
NOTE TO SELF -- NEXT YEAR: print every order I make online immediately so as not to forget what is coming and when!
* dmom's DVD arrived -- the one shipping from GREECE -- and wonder of wonders, it does play on my dvd player -- so that's going to be a big surprise for her, I think. Just an old movie, but apparently one that is extremely hard to find.
I also took a long nap and then cooked supper. DH and I are both finally beginning to feel a little more human, so maybe tomorrow will go well. (We're taking dgs with us to the Grand Ole Opry, remember? DDIL and dgd were welcome to go also, but they didn't want to go without ds, and he can't go.)
The frustrations for today...
* DH has ordered a parking pass for the bowl game that the men in the family are attending on the 28th. It was
supposed to arrive today and requires a signature for delivery. Today we got an email that says estimated shipping will be the 26th, with arrival likely the 27th. Y'all see the problem here... if it does NOT arrive promptly on the 27th, it will be useless, b/c dh will be on the road by 7:00 or 8:00 a.m. on the 28th, and will need the parking pass in hand. * sheesh * DH is soooo upset. And it was very expensive, considering it may be useless. It also cannot be cancelled. We're just stuck.
* Also... still waiting on ds's poster frame and dgs's ornament, in addition to dnephew's socks...
