All is ok

Well, my mother found out the news this morning about the impending hemorage of her checkbook.  She just blows me away– she said she was more worried about my sister than anything since she had done all the medicaid paperwork and was beating herself up over the outcome.  Seriously…the woman probably is going to qualify for [...]

I have no words

….but will try to find them.
Recall 2 posts ago about how my brother borrowed yet another mound of $ from my parents and that my parents are basically broke?  Well, that “gift” of money has caused my mother to be penalized from receiving Medicaid for my father’s nursing home stay for 5 months.  My dad’s [...]

Morocco

I’ve been thinking since about mid way through our trip that I have no idea how to even compose this post because there is not a coherent thread — the experience of Morocco was mind blowing. I think the only way to get any of it across is just to bullet point my thoughts because it [...]

I’m nearly packed because I am psycho like that. Our flight is Friday night.    The doggy’s have their bags packed  too with their food in little baggies and their favorite toys too.  Sniff. My babies are going to a kennel.  Sniff. In truth, I’m delighted. It means I can go away and not worry [...]
