is this, too, probably.
On the phone today with my mother's nursing home nurse, and with my
sister, the power of attorney gal. Arrangements had been made, and my
mom had agreed, to have someone come in once a week, change her
sheets, change the hearing aid batteries. When they came today,
though, she didn't let the person do either. Time for a drug holiday.
Was confronted this morning with water on the floor in the basement.
One-hundred year-old house that we've been in for ten years, and this
is a first, though the portion of the basement wall with the seepage
was noted as a trouble spot when we bought house. The parts of the
yard that aren't bare are now pooled water on top of ice. Took a
"house sick" day and worked from home.
Speaking of work, management is working on a plan to cut costs 5%.
Either a 5% pay cut (most likely) or two weeks of unpaid vacation
(that sounds better)--and then they lay people off.
So all of the above sort of woes, plus approaching 50th--and the
children were wondering why I was so crabby.
