my beautiful, adorable Nanny G...
She is currently living in the Nursing Home i work at, which is wonderful, for both of us because i am with her most everyday.. my grandmother was always so independent, she raised 5 children on her own and when my mother was raising me, my grandmother was there for me, most everyday and always gave me her time, her love & smiles. While it is wonderful to have her near, and be there for HER now, everyday.. it is equally wonderful that she has me near too.. The progression of her Dementia is very difficult to watch though- and seeing this everyday breaks my heart.. As well as the lack of visits from family, etc...It is so frustrating for her, i can feel it and i can see it, in her tears and her outbursts and she's just not herself because of it.. i know having me near makes it easier for her, and THAT is what strengthens me to spend every moment i can with her, despite the hurt of the changes in her everyday.. Right now, we're dealing with Sundown Syndrome, and the last few days her outburts have gotten far worse.. It exhausts her, and her confusion and loneliness make me so sad for her.. So, i do my best to spend every moment i can with her, even going there on my days off, just so she has someone familiar, and someone to help her smile & laugh.. i try my best to make this easier for her, and i can't help being angry at times that this wonderful woman, who gave her whole life to her children & grandchildren is dealing with this.. It hardly seems fair.. And i wish there was more i can do.. i adore Nanny G, with all my heart..& will always do what i can to make her days have some smiles, some love & something familiar...to calm her when i can & to give her my time.. Because her time was always precious to me, and i hope i can help her feel that in return when she needs it most. |
lots..
these damn small ants.. hoping they go away soon since they sprayed and all today..
a shower a walk the reunion schtuff! |
My sewing machine is wearing out - I can't decide between another Pfaff or a Husqvarna....
I had a Pfaff that lasted me 20 years and went around the world with me and was used on a regularly - I miss it! It was the best sewing machine I've ever had (I've had many of the makes and worn the motors out of most of them! LOL!). Now to decide as to which make, then buy after Christmas.... |
I think my barber is trying to set me up with another client. I was long overdue for a haircut. Shortly after he was done with the clippers he started telling me about another female client who likes her hair really, really short. She is a police officer (which scores big points with him), she comes in every 3 or 4 weeks and always remembers to ask about his 4 boys.
I think he started cutting my hair about the same time he started cutting hers. But every time I get my hair cut he mentions her. Yet to meet her tho. |
The Kristy Lee concert in Philly and wishing my girl and I could have gone! "Someday" though we will... "Someday" sooner, than later... ;)

Now it's old and it's time for an upgrade - I'm looking at a machine that will Overlock and do straight stitch, but, will also take up to 12 layers of Denim, 4 layers wool coating, etc. With the amount of sewing I do in making my own clothes, home soft furnishings, etc, I need an industrial machine that can do the work. Both Pfaff and Husqvarna make such machines for domestic use, but, they aren't cheap, lol! They're also very heavy so need to be set up in a permanent place. I'm not keen on automatic feeds - I've had three go wrong and my frustration levels were too high to sit and sew, lol! Manual is a pain, but, at least I know I won't be swearing my head off as much, lol! |
What else.......

thought about this stuff all week: couldn't wait to work from home today because the remote office is closed...
My talk with a Compliance Officer and HR yesterday, with a future appointment set for more in depth convo... The hard emotions that I've faced recently. The work, both physically and emotionally, I need to do between now and next month to prepare to move into my own place. Always on my mind lately, since I found out about the abuse...getting myself in a position and place where I can bring Gramma D to live with me. I miss that woman so much! I found a place that would be perfect for her! All on one level and with so many rooms that she might be able to have her own Suite. We shall see. |
How beautiful Adele is.. she is just all around beautiful, her voice,her spriit, her looks.. have any of you seen this?

Ever have a day when you are just cranky as hell and no quite sure why?

On My mind is thinking about how I'm gonna make 2012 the best year of My life :)

Relief...the mammogram (which was abnormal last year on the right side) has been officially declared normal this year. Evidently, I have fibrous tissue and need not be alarmed.
I do, however, need to be faithful about getting my boobs (such as they are) flattened each year. Honestly, I've been scared all year that they were going to need a biopsy. :rrose: |
whats on my mind?
NOTHING and I love that !!!!!!!!!!! I am peaceful and quiet
tonight and enjoying a cup of oolong tea...:bunchflowers: |
Early November, is NOT, I repeat NOT too early to start watching Love Actually!
|
Wondering how the hell my mother thinks she is going to get all the liquor she bought here on the plane without it becoming an issue. She is stocking up like the prohibition is about to be reinstated.
|
about ready for bed.
|
I'm grateful for my goals and deadlines because they make springtime seem closer.
|
...where ARE my happy mood shoes?
|
Happiness...
I am so excited for my next journey in life and am looking forward to the travels with my dear friends and the meeting of new ones!
|
Thinking I am sick of being sick and how much I love listening to the dogs play.
|
waiting for a phone call. . wanting to start training and getting my career on track.

The last month has been on My mind, and going through all of the crap that has gone on hoping to now move forward !!!!
