Since coming home from the retreat on Sunday, I have been so busy it seems like I am in a whirlwind of sorts.
You know my mom started having seizures, and continued having seizures (cross your fingers they have not called me today so far). They are small and mild, but seizures none the less. The Hospice RN says this is often the case in end stage Alzheimers patients as the brain aggressively misfires. They have the doc scheduled to see her sometime, but I can't remember exactly when.
On Tuesday, I spent the day taking McGee for his first heartworm treatment and the rest of the day in court for the revocation hearing for the first set of dog dumpers. That is a mess. The judge postponed everything till January since the one who has a lawyer, did not show up. So we spent all morning sitting on hard benches with no cushions with the dregs of society for nothing.
Then Wednesday I went to Slidell, LA with Ann to pick up Tiger's cat Roscoe for his move to Baton Rouge. We stopped at Bright Hopes Quilting in Mandeville, LA and I bought some stuff that made me feel good. Veggies and reds! Yes.
Then I had a CAAWS Board meeting last night. And today I just got home from a Bylaws Revision Committee Meeting for CAAWS. Just in time for the elections in December.
Oh, and I just ate half a bag of potato chips, and if I don't slow down soon I will down the other half.
AUGHHHH!
So here is the Southwest as I added each of the 8 borders at the Retreat. I love it!
That's hard news to bear about your mom, the beginning of the end. I'm sure you will do everything you can to make her last days the best they can be but please do not forget about doing what YOU need. Slow down, say no to new commitments for now and just BE.
