Home safe and sound
Ellen | November 30, 2006Well we headed over to Halifax on Tuesday to pick up Loralee, on the way there we lost about a half hour travel time due to some red and blue lights,, ( yep we got a speeding ticket ) we got to the hospital around 5 and got back on the road about 5:30, on the way out of Halifax we got LOST and lost another good amount of time. so it was 10:30 when we got home here, once home we got a bite to eat before bunking down for the night.
the next morning, we all got up and ready for school and work and Lora got ready to go up to the clinic to have her blood drawn,, then she had to drop off papers at the dr’s office and then head to the Drug store for her prescriptions. so we dropped her off on our way to work with address in her pocket to have when she called a cab to come back here and my cell phone in case she needed help.
In the afternoon Tammy Jo came up and took her up to see her Dr who made an appointment for 1:30 for her, and the she took her to the drug store to get the rest of the med’s that weren’t ready when Lora was up the first time. And then Tammy Jo came BACK in and picked me up from work at 4 to give me a drive home . THANK YOU TAMMY JO!!!
After supper Lora and I went up to Walmart and did a few errands while we were gone I took the phone off the hook so Wendell could sleep which he did the whole time we were gone and slept the whole night afterwards too. Lora and I watched some showes we had missed before heading off to bed.
This morning Loralee got up around with us and after we left for work she had some breakfast and then layed back down for a nap. at 11:30 I came home because the nurse was here to fill out all the paperwork we’ll need done to get the ball rolling for her homecare, disability ect . then I headed back to work.
Barb was in today and brought in lots of great info and recipies for Loralee, along with this machine called the traveller, which makes it so Lora can read stuff under it,, what a neat machine !!
THANKS BARB for the thoughtfulness and the great info and of course the great company for Loralee today!!
Nick and DJ were in after I got home from work and we had a little visit with them.
This evening Loralee and I went up to the bulk barn to check out what they have there for the special flours she needs to bake with. and get an idea of how much it is going to cost her.
tomorrow night I might dig out the xmas tree and get that put up,, I don’t plan on decorating the whole house this year, just the tree and the bigger things that I can set out,, (father christms, christmas bears ect).
Saturday and Sunday I hope to sleep in LATE both days,, so will there be much housework done here this weekend NOPE.
Sunday Lora’s daughter is suppose to arrive home. I’m hoping Viv and I can get together and slip away for an hour or so to an Avon and craft day in town here.
I need to catch up on some rest for sure,, tuesday morning at work I kind of scared myself, as I was walking thru the hall I got dizzy and my eyes crossed on me ,, I had to stop and lean on the wall for a few minutes until it passed,, I thought I was going to pass out.. it hasn’t happened since but I’m sure its a sign that I need to take a little me time SOON. which is what I plan on doing this weekend.
Now its time to sit back and watch Survivor !!
Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend ,, Happy Friday folks and enjoy the 1st day of December!!!
