Loosing your marbles--while I enjoy my visits there too--might just be God's way of telling us we are doing too much. And care-giving for a parent is the toughest job out there, at least that I have seen. I am glad your mom gets to visit at your sister's, and that you get a break. It will work out--just not always like she (your mom) might expect, prefer or demand. LEarning to be flexible was the lesson I gleaned from watching my mom care for my grandparents when we were growing up, and then again recently as I was able to help care for my dear friend Tammy with her ALS for three years. Things can get done/sent/fixed/accomplished without having to do it "their" way exactly. It still gets done. And they'll eventually come around to the getting done, rather than their way bit.<br /><br />Love to you my friend. Hang in there.<br /><br />PS--My "word verification" word was just 'excesses'.

I have two ladies ordering invites whose user names both start with "L's" but have nothing else in common and I keep e-mailing the wrong one with the other ladies info. Very professional. :) <br /><br />I didn't even know Grandma was going to CA! No wonder the need for her suitcase. How long is she gone for?Lisa Summerhayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15986406166600431289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5801381532727968242.post-15019493350983801762011-01-03T19:53:44.992-08:002011-01-03T19:53:44.992-08:00Holy smokes! hahahaha!!
