THANKFUL FOR HOSPITALS, DOCTORS, NURSES, STAFF, ETC. Also so very thankful for those who are up to snuff about NUTRIENTS, minerals, vitamins and above all else NUTRITION!
Mom fell on Monday breaking her hip. Surgery on Tuesday. Good news was her ball in the hip stayed in tack. Break is below that ball. A rod and 2 skews were inserted into her right thigh area. She will begin physical therapy on Monday.
Back and forth we went to Newton to be with her. By Friday night I was exhausted. I do not have ease when driving in the dark so I have to try really hard to drive in the daylight. Not always possible. Thursday night, it was raining and I drove in it. Makes me uptight and cranky.
HOME now and packing pretty antique glassware to get it moved out of the corner cabinet and Grandma's hutch so the painting of the Dining room can be completed. I will go ahead and relocate the dishes to the COTTAGE and there they will be until we relocate later in the year.
I continue to shred paperwork! Whoopie. It is a exercise of skill and patience. Haha and more haha. Today a granddaughter will be coming over to rake leaves and do some yard work. Looking forward to seeing her.
SO much to do in the house my head spins. Even with being a day closer to Spring, it cannot be soon enough. This has been a very long WINTER SEASON to me. It rained and snowed while I was busy being a good daughter to my mom. We needed the moisture for sure, but the rains will come in April and May and I will be grateful.
So Lord willing the rest of Winter and Spring will be dedicated to down sizing, thinning out papers and other belongings, remodeling and preparing for a significant move. I'll miss this lovely old 1883 house, but will have great memories to keep me warm at night.
I plan on changing some and switching up on the decorating themes. Having far less clutter. This will be fun. I plan to simplify LIFE as much as possible and be more free spirited as an old Lady getting older as she goes. Nutrition will be playing as important roll as a 66/67 year old peep. Health related matters are before me and I hope to be on top of all of it through prayer, food and nutrients.
Being PRO-ACTIVE is a must. I continue to take supplements to help nourish our bodies and minds. Emotional HEALTH support is a must. Somewhere in here, I will get better at stretching, walking and staying physically active. I am very happy and excited to say, I have not taken a OTC sleep aid in 9 days! A few months ago, I stopped taking the Omeprazole and am weaning off of the diuretics.
I'm focusing on nutrients to help with lowering my Blood Pressure, Blood Sugars and unhealthy Cholesterols. Having some challenges at lowering my weight. More nutrients and exercising to the rescue I'm sure.
