Well first the good news....

Bridget and I have been having lot’s of fun! Playing games, making puzzles, watching Tom & Jerry while we have lunch, computer games, and she just passes out at night. She loves the 105 year old bed that my mom use to sleep in. She also likes that both cats sleep with her too, as he cat sleeps with her Mom.

Ellen is still pretty sick, my husband stayed home today. I have been able to keep up with Bridget okay.... a slower keep up. My sinuses are kind of getting ugly; face and teeth hurt. So lot’s of water, juice and a little steam; isn’t really helping but I am hoping it will soon. Today the temp hit in the 60’s again... nice but not good in the water storage department. It is so dry here and I am sure that’s not helping my sinus problem, well that and the flu.

Now the bad news....

My Mother-in-law had to go to the hospital again, tonight as a matter of fact. 911 and the whole bit again. I am not even sure if it was due to the flu we all have or what because she was throwing up and stuff that none of us are doing. Food poisoning maybe, sounds more like that. The hospital hasn’t call and my husband went to bed, so I guess that’s good; it means she is still alive! You know I wouldn’t be able to go to bed until I knew how she was... but I guess my husband can so I just have to deal with not knowing.

I’m doing okay... haven’t had any flashback like the last time she had to go to the hospital. Still the same one my Mom died at last July. Just a little pensive and I kind of want to pace back and forth, but I am writing instead. So I guess I’ll have another cup of tea, do what I can about my sinus thing, take my sleeping pill, and try to sleep. I have to get up at 6 a.m. to put Bridget back in bed here. Ellen has to go to work as she has only been able to work 6 hours in the last week. So... such is life here in my little part of it.

Oh and if you are wondering.... yes, the thought did cross my mind... cutting; but I didn’t. Now the old bastard cat is another story.... he’s driving me crazy of course but I haven’t kill him either, though the thought did cross my mind......hum.
