Thank God for hospice
Well, all I can say is that hospice is wonderfull. They are going to be here whenever I need a break or my sister needs a break. They pay for all her meds, also all her medical 'comfort' needs. It is amazing what they do.
My sis is going out of town next week for work and we have some friends that are going to stay with my mom and watch her so I get a three day break...at least from watching my mom, I still have to watch my nephew. I will take full advantage of that time though! I have to finish the table and chairs I started. My father made that table and chair set so I took it and am refinishing it. I have the top of the table done, I stained it 'bombay mohaghanny' and it is really pretty! Then I have the pantry to finish. I have no idea as to what to do with that. It was in my great grandmothers' farmhouse and I guess I inherited it but the paint is pretty old and I feel painting over it would not be good so I strip it and maybe paint it!
The parish nurse just called and she is coming out to visit with my mohter at 3:30 this afternoon. I suppose she is going to trim my mothers' toe nails and give her communion. She is an awesome parish nurse. I will be gone then because I have to pick up my kiddos after school. My son has work right away after school as well. The weather has sucked this last week. Always raining and it hailed out yesterday. It is raining out pretty good right now. Yikkkes!
I have been busy with my quilting as well. I have three quilt tops done and now I need to get them finished. My auntie is coming down next week tuesday I think and I will 'beg' for help--lol. Last night my nephew got his first bible at church...he was pretty proud I guess. I feel bad as I am his God Mum and I missed it. I have just been too tired with all this crap and I know it is the depression and have to get that under control very soon as it only gets worse from here.
Thank you Shelly for the card...I got it and I love ya! Sorry if I have been didstant lately...you know why.
Hubby just called and said his mother called him...yeah..interesting thing she is. Apparently some good friends of hers confronted her about her drinking and it pissed her off. Hubby says that her and his dad always drank in the evening and not to worry about it...yeah whatever. Then a friend of hers came to talk with her and said she doesn't have a drinking problem then went to the other friends and said she does...WTF...I told hubby I Am staying WAY out of that one. But I think she does have a problem. I did tell hubby that but I said I am staying out of it with her. Serves her right for all the crap she has said about me behind my back and in front of my daughter. Oh well, what can you do about sad, sad people who don't get it. There is a rumor her and this one guy are having an affair. I know that is all rumor as she doesn't even, well he is different and there just would be no way that would happen! So sad how people are and have such boring lives they have to make up crapto feel good about themselves.
The kiddos are going to be babysitting the 'evil' nephews this weekend...friday-sunday...in shifts so they should make some good cash. Last weekend my son babysat overnight and made $60. Damn, I want to babysit. NOT!!! They truely are spoiled brats.
Been buying alot of stuff on EBAY lately. Mostly fabric for quilts and such. Yeah yeah I know, lazy, but the cutting part is done and I don't have to do it. Bought some Breyer brand horses for my daughter, she is digging horses right now. Bought a Saint Rita medal, silver coffe urn with a burner thingy on the bottom. I did bid on but not won a Louis Vuitton handbag...it went higher then what it is new in the shop so I said forget it! Oh, I bought the coolest hat too, but won't be able to wear it till next summer, it is a summer hat. It is cute though!
Well I guess this is long and boring enough so I will quit for now...

Try to relax a bit this weekend. I know it'll be hard with your nephew, but I hope you're able to. Im thinking of you, praying for your momma and your family, and wishing you didn't have to go through all of this. Your hubbys momma sounds like a drama frickin queen! Stay away! You know how much I dont like her, just because of what she did to you! >=| That wasn't fair!
Anyway - I just wanted you to know that Im thinking of you. I wish you peace this weekend, sweetheart.

ps: You have my number if you need me. I washed my cell phone (yes, in the washer and it was on accident) so you'll have to call my house. I'll be home pretty much all weekend. Anytime you need me, just call. I will call you back if I happen to be gone. That's a promise. Just leave a message.
xoxo
