Stay Sane

Hello Everyone:

It’s been a stressful two days. Mum’s back in the hospital and feeling panicked. I think this is making her feel worse. Mum likes to be in control of everything but this time she isn’t and that’s what’s freaking her out. I guess not being in control of anything can freak anyone but mum is a micromanager.  In the meantime I’ve been holding things down at home. I’ve been in reguar contact with mum and she wants to come home already. I don’t blame her. Who wants to be in hospital?  The doctors and nurses taking care of don’t want her to be there. So far i’m managing at home but I was thinking it would be nice if someone called to find out if I need anything. I don’t need to be looked after or looked in on, just some contact from sis or one of Mum’s friends. I don’t know, a meal invitation or a someone asking me if I need groceries. I’m going to the store tomorrow and I have a ton Mum laundry to do tomorrow but hey, I wouldn’t mind a call from someone asking me if I’d like to go to dinner or something. Whatever. Kind of proves my point that people are crap. I have better things to concern myself with than other people. Right now the concern is basic self care. Things like getting dress, doing my hair and make up, eating properly, getting enough sleep. This is important right now because with mum’s health being the way it is, self care can fall by the wayside. Been there, done that, don’t want to repeat it. So, I’m focused on some basic self care.  Got to just to stay sane.
