I may not be able to move tomorrow!


This was our challenge...how to get a ramp in this spot.


A whole lot of clutter was created in the making of this project.


I still need to add some safety rails but this is the main structure.  I really don't know if I will be moving too fast tomorrow, I am getting too old for these projects.

I finally stopped to make hotel and car reservations.  Then, I had to run to Walmart to make sure that there is enough food in the house for the time I am gone.  Now, I am exhausted and heading to bed soon.....after I check my laundry and pack.

I fly very early in the morning.  I am concerned about this trip.  The first nurses that I talked to said that my mom was able to stand up and rotate with assistance.  Then the social worker called and said that my mom was like lifting dead weight and had gained 20 lbs since she lived with us.  I called her nursing station and they said that she did need assistance and was slow but they wouldn't say that she was dead weight.  Sigh, I guess I will know the truth soon enough.  I worry that I will not be able to handle my mom.  I worry that I may be taking on more then I can handle.  Yet, I am going and will try my best.  My mom talks of coming home every day.

I am off to pack......I'll be back in a few days.  Say a prayer for me!  Even more, say one for John who will be home with the kids.
