Hello again
Just a few days left until the big day. Hope you are all ready for it. I'm not. I will wrap what I have for mom this evening, then Christmas Eve, when I get back at this place, I will cook mom her Christmas dinner.
I don't have to worry about eating any of it. As I still can't eat anything but soft foods. Even that hurts. The pain is either going away or I am getting use to this tooth pain. But I now have a major headache.
Wrong time of the year for this to happen. But that is the way it is and the way it shall be.
I have managed to get mom a few gifts this year. So I know she will like them. This is all that counts, isn't it.
I am thankful I get to spend another Christmas with my mother. She is healthy and as happy as she can be, considering her circumstance. Stroke, Dementia, stuck in a wheelchair, completely reliant on everyone else for all your needs.
I don't know about you, but I would be pretty upset, Okay, pissed right off at this. But mom goes about her day with a brave face. I do hope that she looks forward to me coming and helping her out. It is the most important thing I have and am doing in my life. Nothing compares to this. And I don't think anything will either.
I do look forward to being their and taking care of mom, everyday. I don't complain about the travel. I just wish to live out their to spend more time with mom.
It is such a waste for me to be traveling all the time it takes me to get their. This time could be used to help mom out even more.
I can't ask enough times to pray that I find a place close to mom, which I can afford.
Anyways mom has a great appetite and ate all of which I brought her today. Plus some. It makes my day, just being able to cook for her. Even though I can't eat right now, I still am making her dinners.
Tonight and the last few nights, I have been putting mom to bed. It is not fair to her that she has to sit in her chair for the extra time it takes for the care aid to come in and put her into the bed. She just wants out of the chair.
I stayed with her latter this evening as I needed to leave early last night. Got home early as well. Doesn't make sense. I stayed latter and got home earlier. Weird or what.
I am disappointed that mom's daughters can't take the time to be. You know what, I am just happy I can make mom's Christmas enjoyable. I will and will continue to be there for her.
I see the look of disdain on her face.
But I think I will give this a break for a few days. Until Christmas Day.
I want to wish each and everyone of you a very Merry Christmas.
May each of these days be filled with laughter and joy. That you and your family take the time to enjoy each other. It is so precious an opportunity.
Give to your fellow man, those that are in need of cheer. Search out the one;s who really need a kind word or a gentle hug. Say hello to the one's you otherwise would walk by.
Let GOD's light fill each and everyone of your souls. That it shines forth so everyone see's that you are of GOD, born of GOD.
I wish to say thank you everyone for reading this Blog. I do appreciate it, very much. This makes me want to continue to write. Thank you!
God bless and good night
