G is for Getting Along

Hi all, just wanted to give an update and thank you all for your support. My MIL is in a skilled nursing and rehab facility so she is getting great care and is slowly improving. She fell and fractured at least one rib, was having trouble breathing and had a slight infection. Our hope is that with the physical and occupational therapy she will be able to come home soon. I am going to see her at least once a day, usually around a meal time so I can help her get situated and make sure that she has everything she needs. That takes a good few hours, but I don't mind. You may or may not remember that she used to live in Oregon and when she needed us we'd have to get on a plane and fly up there. This is much easier than that! The nursing home is near the ocean so I get to see this when I visit:







In addition I got in a lot of transcription work which is my "real" job when I'm not blogging or working in the studio. I am so grateful that I am able to do this work from home so that even if I have to spend some extra time with MIL, I can still do the typing. Sometimes I'm up until 10 PM but I'm in my jammies so it's all good. 

Anyway, I just wanted to thank everyone again for the well wishes and who knows, we still have half a month left, maybe I'll be able to do a couple of catch up posts or even extend it past April. It's my blog and I can do what I want, right?  

Have a great week everyone!

F is for Forgive Me

 Hi all - I am afraid I may not be able to keep up with the A to Z this year. I had to take my mother-in-law to the ER twice since Friday and she has been admitted so I need to be with her. If I can I'll try to do two posts in a day to catch up but family first, right?  It will also mean that I probably can't comment as much on others. So sorry about that! She's going to be 100 in July and I'm going to do all I can to make sure she gets there!
