Well mom is still going without her smoothie. I simply can't afford to buy a blender. I need shoes, as all of mine now have holes in the soles of them. My boots are falling apart at the seam. I was wondering why my one foot was getting so wet, the other day. Then I was going to put the boots on yesterday, and saw the sole coming off the boot. My runners are full of holes, my boots are falling apart and my casual shoes, well the sole is splitting in half, of both shoes.
It is now the rainy season here in the lower mainland. Not very good. I have no way of paying for new shoes. I need fall and winter clothing. It is getting colder here with each passing day. 3 c tonight, snow on the mountains today, and very windy
Wet feet here I come! no choice. And the zipper has broken on my waterproof jacket. I now need to contact the company to see where in Vancouver does one get this type of jacket fixed and if it covered. Even though I found it. One never knows, if one does not ask.
I left today, thinking, it is sunny out, so it will be warm. Half way to mom's it became very cold out. It became very windy out. And I became very cold. I had my hand on my down vest, but decided, it is sunny out I won't need it. Right!
Tomorrow, whether I need it or not I am wearing it. I can just take it off if I am to hot. My backpack is tearing, but that is OK, I will just sew it up. No problem there.
So I am working on a few things, but,at the moment I can't play my cards. As things progress I will keep you informed.
Now mom is still not use to the time change. Because of an incident we could not eat in her room tonight. Tomorrow we will be back. We had the dinner in an old spot we use to eat in, and this took longer as we had to set everything up.
But we managed fine and then off to get her ready for bed . Because of being late, the care aid came in as we got back to her room. We just needed a few minutes. The care aid tried to help change mom, and mom did not like this at all. I have been the only one getting mom ready for bed in a very long time. She will not allow anyone else to do this. As soon as the care aid stopped trying to help change mom. Everything was OK again. I guess she didn't know.
Mom trusts no one else to do this for her. There is a certain way in which mom likes to be undressed and dressed. It is only through me, that she will trust.
Anyways we got mom in bed and changed her diaper. I then quickly went and did the dishes. Came back and mom was ready to sleep, but still wanted the full spa treatment. Washing her feet as well. I am more than willing to do this for her.
Tonight I stayed allot later just so I could hold mom's hand while she fell asleep. But I needed to leave and mom didn't want to let go of my hand. She wanted me to stay longer. If I lived out there I would stay. Period.
I am poor I live very poorly. I am disabled with many problems. But I do my best. I make sure, no matter how much pain I am in, to be there taking care of my mother. Beats the lazy ass sisters I have, including the stoner. Look I smoked pot and was an alcoholic. But I have been sober and not smoking pot for 12 years now. January 6, it will be year 13. I barely smoke cigarettes anymore. To prove my sister is a stoner I am willing to take a drug test. Bring it on!
One thing I am not, is unintelligent. It is the opposite. I have a very high IQ and this is to my advantage, when dealing with the PGT. They assume they can pull things over on me and I won't know what to do, to stop them. I guess they will just have to wait and find out. Won't they.
Please pray for mom. That she keeps doing well.
GOD bless and good night
