Not my usual Favourite Things post today. I was very late getting up. 7 a.m. and that is an hour later than I usually do. I had to help Eileen with her bathroom stuff and get her back settled in bed, and then take my shower and here I am, it's gone 8 a.m. already. I don't really have a lot of time to play this morning.
She has a CSS visit at some point today. I am hoping that the worker will sit here with her so I can go to the store and get some things I need. I am afraid to leave her on her own as she is having a lot of pain getting up and sitting down with the stitches. Not the belly ones, they seem to be okay. The other ones. In any case, I only have cat food left for one day and I need milk and a few other bits, so hopefully the worker can stay.
She did seem a bit better last night when I went to get her ready for bed. She had had a nice shower and I gave her a combination of Tylenol 1 and an Ibuprofen, which seemed to work much better. So I will have to pick up some more Ibuprofen too. She didn't rest well last night because she forgot to take her anxiety meds. so she took them this morning. I am not sure if she should have or not, but she was determined to do so. She is sleeping now. Her sleep mask is causing a blister on her nose. She didn't have that problem with the one she was testing out. That's a problem for the workers to sort.
In any case, I didn't want anyone to worry. Hopefully I will be back tomorrow with my regular post. 😊
In the meantime, here is a thought to carry with you . . . from my ME calendar . . .

In The English Kitchen today . . . Teriyaki Turkey Meatballs. Simple, easy and delicious. Don't like ground turkey? You can always use beef, pork or chicken. It's very user friendly.
I hope that you have a beautiful day today. Its mostly cloudy here and very windy, but no rain until tomorrow, which is why I need to get out today. In any case, have a great day! Don't forget!
You needed the sleep, put yourself and family first. Hoping the visit goes for Eileen and you are able to get out to get the needed things.
ReplyDeleteYes, sure you're exhausted with caring for Eileen, but she is most important in your life right now. I have to put a Band-Aid on my husband's nose so his CPAP doesn't bother the top of his nose! Take care you two ladies. Prayers up for everyone.
ReplyDeleteTake care, rest. xo, Virginia
ReplyDeleteRest all you can...caretaking is very energy robbing...been doing this now for quite a few years!! Hope Eileen gets better soon!!!
