Another Day Of Running Around

This morning, I waited till about 10:45 am to get moving. I didn't realize till after I left that I was an hour earlier than I wanted to be. I got the times messed up. My first stop was at Safeway for the nicotine patch; to find out they didn't carry them. Then I stopped at CVS and was able to get the correct patch that mom needed. Next on the list was the museum. I needed up waiting for a while to see if Chip could answer a couple questions for me. Yes, we will have a quilt for a WWII veteran and no, he didn't know if the Chronicle will be there. So, I put Debbie on it. Last stop was Walgreens for our Christmas cards. Now I have to do that as well!

I stopped and got tea for both mom and me. Since I had to stop by. I don't want to have to stop again for a few days. I'm tired of all this. She's doing a LOT better and she's feeling better. I think after she had the Ensure Protein drink, that helped her to sleep. She was in a lot better mood as well. I sat and chatted for an hour. Then I headed to my PT appointment. Bob is saying he thinks it's in my back more than it's in my ankle. It feels like it's in the ankle, but he knows what he's talking about. He hit a few sore spots around my hip area. So, I figure he knows what he's talking about. He is going to request my doctor do an MRI on my spine. UGH

Came home after all that. Finally got home around 2:45 pm. Patrick was already home. I just needed a break from everything. So, I played on my tablet. I will work on my ornaments by Thursday. I also realized I need to do my panel quilts if we have 10 active-duty members. They should get the panel quilts and not the regular quilts. That got me in the mood of - "not now." UGH!!

It's been an interesting few days. I'm not a caregiver and I don't want to be. Nancy stopped by and she reminded mom of the quilt group luncheon. Guess they are still going to have it, when mom can't go. I thought that was rude, because they use moms house to quilt, but when she's not feeling well, they go out to eat without her. If it was me, I would probably let them know I wouldn't care for that. 

I will be going to the casino tomorrow and that should help calm me down. I really am tired of all the work I have had to do. At times, I wish mom would have stayed with my brother in Vancouver, but I know she knew I would take better care of her than he would. Just my luck. 

I wasn't having a day that I would have like to have - being Happy Quilting/Happy Stitching!
