Self Care

Hello Everyone:

Sorry about yesterday but by the time I got home, ate, and tidied up it was time to go to bed.  Anyway, the excursion to the dollar was pretty quick and painless, much like today's trip to the grocery store.  This morning mum told me that she does appreciate everything I do and we work together.  She tries to do as much as she can and I should not feel like her slave.  It was hard to hear it and not feel like it's just empty words.  I keep telling her I don't want words from her and her friends, I want some action.  You appreciate all my efforts, give a well deserved break.  Hire someone to come in and take over some of care giver duties so I can focus more on bettering my life.  To that end, I emailed a question to the BIL about being named designated mum's primary caregiver.  This would give me access to some benefits that would ease some of the burden.  It's worth a shot and I could take advantage of it while work on moving forward with my life.  Speaking of moving forward, the Brit BF's animation project is moving towards the BBC Acquisitions Department.  If they offer him the much dreamed about development deal, it could be a serious life altering event.  What would it mean for me?  Hopefully some nice little glittery bauble.  I'm not expecting any life changing event on my end, like moving to the UK.  Not that moving to London or Manchester is necessarily a bad thing but honestly, I'd want something to do with my time--i.e. work.  The flip side is he moves back to Los Angeles and we move into some nice apartment.  Whatever the case may be, I'm not counting on anything or anyone.  I just need to take care of myself.
