Grandpa Is Getting Better!

I thought to call and check on Grandpa C today. It seems someone in therapy got though to him. He is eating and doing his therapy so he can get out of there YEA! I will need to call and talk to him soon. I e-mailed to check on moms brother today, I should call to follow up with them. I should check on the other two as well.

I did not get over to moms city and now there will not be time before Monday when I am going through on my way to the city a 1/2 hour north of there to take my son back to visit the college his female friend is going to at the end of August. Thanks to us going to visit in Iowa Private College week last year. With and evangelist in our community we will be back to services in the evening Lord willing.

The auction is close now.

No Sleep Last Night

Today I went over to pack up the kitchen. LOL. I did not get much done but I did set aside some things not to sell. Tupperware and some other things.

I was greeted with the fact mom did not sleep last night. I hope she sleeps tonight. Her care giver was tired. I hope they get rest tonight. Much to pray about with the auction coming up.

Saturday is behind us

We all survived Saturday. After starting my day at 4 a.m. being on the road at 4:30 a.m. We made it to Waterloo a little earlier than we expected. I had the hot tub guy come over before we all met rather than after. Brian was a little early as well. Our sons came mowed the lawn and left pretty much. Brian and Craig want a lot of the same stuff. While Craig wants a lot more than Brain. Moms caregiver asked who Craig was, he has aged a lot since we all had last seen him in Feb. 2007. Mom was a real handful Saturday with us all there. We all talked to her for some time. Her care giver tonight said she was finally settling down from yesterday. The last thing I want is to upset her.

Mom is just skin and bones. I will be glad to find out what she weights again.

Grandpa C

News was not good on Grandpa C today. It sounds as if he is giving up and every one else too. Which got me to thinking. He lost grandma many years ago. Dad in Dec. 2006 and his youngest sibling December 2007. His current wife is living in a nursing home. My aunt mentioned all he has left is one sister. He has a few miles on him as well. While his youngest brother lived a rougher life. She also mentioned he had made some changes recently to be more like his family. Hear I have been fearing a call about my moms brother, while Grandpa is loosing ground. I hope he pull though.

Mom is Back Home

Mom has moved from her care takers back to her home. Only I messed up in not getting the phone number moved. So that is messed up until I can get it fixed.

Also my uncle called while we were at camp. Grandpa got dehydrated, so he is in the hospital with a heart that is not regular. We are praying for him. I pray he gets well soon.

Mom knew she was in her home. Mom went right to her favorite seat in the home.

11 July 2008

Mom was doing well when I saw her yesterday. I could tell she knew me by the way when she looked at me she would grab my hand and not let go. She even was trying to sing "Jesus Loves Me" with me for the first time in a long time. I was not able to get as much done with the canning jars as I wanted. I did contact the one of the parties that had been recommended to me twice about doing the roofing job for moms house. The lawyer called about having met with youngest dear brother and his female friend. Not much more to say about all that.

a few things to keep in mind

Mom went to the Dr. for an after the hospital stay check and the Dr. put her back on iron.

The lawyer for mom called yesterday, he was going to meet with youngest dear brother today, then let me know what I should not sell. I have not heard back from him yet . Tomorrow I will be hard to catch up with and gone after that. So I hope all goes well.

I will be going there tomorrow. I need to mow the yard, stop at the credit union, pick up the mower, get a roof estimate, drop the boxes for the auction, empty the canning jars, run the dishwasher. Take over the auto hoist that has been here since the truck was sold. That sound like enough since I have to squeeze it between tennis lesson for my sons youngest and taking the older two at home to work. I hope we are not cutting it tight.
