Morning all. I agree helian the move is probably stressful. Stress is funny like that. After things get figured out it comes to a head. You have a lot of details done. Just making the move successful.

I called off work today for that very reason. I am exhausted. Headache is better than it was. Not sure yet what the day is going to look like but first part is going to be a rest. Everyone is home now. Dad seems to be ok. Just could bear one more night and with him home. I did ok till the last day and I feel like anxiety got the best of me. And post fighting something off.

Dad called. His numbers are good. He seems ok. I will go there later and bring a few groceries and check on them. Need a few things here too. Later. After I feel better.

I'm going to rest a little and then try for at least a few routines.

Good morning, all!

helian ~ NH fyi -- I don't know what your mom has now, but I thought I'd pass along a couple of things that made life easier for mine. We got her a hospital bed that the feet & head go up and down. I brought over a twin memory foam mattress topper to make the bed more comfortable. And we bought her a lift power recliner. That way she could change up from sleeping/sitting in her lazy boy or the bed. And as she got weaker, the lift made things a lot easier to transfer her. And I'm sure she's going to love it when she starts getting all that company!

This'll be short & sweet. In my infinite "wisdom" I thought I'd up my nutrition support with raw garlic last night - which is anti-fungal/viral/bacteria. The first day after I do that - bucket head shows up. Tomorrow will be better but today I'm super scatterbrained. But that garlic toast with fresh garlic WAS delicious! I'll be running over to Indy airport (2 hours away) to pick up G this afternoon.

The VERY short list
• s2s
• quick spiff
• dw
• finish laundry so the w/d are free for G when he gets home
Other
• more planner planning

Hello, everyone!

WTG being done with work, Trissie!

Helian, I think long term, having your DMum so much closer will make things much easier and less stressful for everyone, but, of course, the process of "getting there" must be incredibly stressful for you. I haven't posted pictures of the cat and kitten in the basket yet - that's hopefully coming when I do the sitting room. I'm just waiting for one piece of furniture to arrive before I take the photos and write all about it. :D

L.Ann, extra virgin olive oil has shot up in price over the last few months. :roll: I usually use the supermarket 's own brand of EVOO, which is marginally cheaper, and I can't really taste any difference. Those biscuits do sound tasty!

Gma, the link to my dolls house on the SHE forum is below:
http://www.sheforums.com/forums/viewtop ... 11&t=70287

Since we've moved to this forum, I've started a blog which I can update once the old forums close.
The link to that is below:
Kittykatt's Dolls House Project

( Each time I update I try and remember to post the link, so anyone who's interested doesn't have to scroll through lots of posts to find it! :D )

I'm glad your DDad is doing well, Laura.

Waving to Smilelee and Peaches!

Back from town, I've visited C and given her the groceries, and now I'm sitting down with Jude on my lap. It's raining, so I'm not going to get anything done outside, but there's plenty indoors to keep me out of mischief! :lol:

Popping in quickly. I need to go s2s soon as I need to be otd in 45 minutes.

Thanks for the encouragement, everyone! I got a list of supplies today from the new nh. Maybe she had sent that earlier; I don't remember seeing it. It is very helpful. They will let her use one of their wheelchairs until they can evaluate her and figure out which one they think is best for her -- so the wheelchair issue is done. She does need a chair for the shower. . . .Never bought one. I'll need to look into that too. Priorities before she arrives: chest of drawers for clothes, blankets for her bed, toiletry supplies. A shower chair. Maybe a hamper for dirty clothes. We'll continue to equip the room after she arrives. I'm hoping houseplants are OK.

Next:
- back exercises
- s2s and self care
- make the bed

Later:
- make the bed
- fold and p/a towels
- fold and p/a socks and underwear
- lists
- gather everything and otd to payroll around 1:15
- 1:30 - 3:30 payroll: teach AAS D2
- go for a walk/ gym - weights
- bring in firewood
- finish dh's chapter, if possible
- payroll: curriculum review - overdue
- payroll: start GGT project
- dinner date with dh
- update health apps
- duo
- read

TaDas!
- up; weighed self
- coffee
- some qt
- email deletions + weather website
- emailed NH
- reclaimed kitchen
- payroll: prepped AAS D2
- some lunch

Ok I am back. I'm going to go slow and try some routine ... after I take some more painkiller. Heading is down to a dull ache but not going away. I made pancakes and eggs for breakfast. Ds is home today too. Maybe this is some sort of bug..

Take advil and drink more.
