What A Day Part 38

38 Days is how long my Mom has been in the hospital consecutively! And we are all growing very tired. I am blogging here today because my computer has been crippled by some spyware which no doubt is the result of allowing other people (who will remain nameless) to use and load programs on my pc. So now I have to reinstall everything. And by that I mean my husband. I was attempting to print things off for work but hey.. I dont have excel or my print driver yet!
I have about a million things to do for my Mom today not the least of which involves a trip to less desirable areas of town to get a copy of her birth certificate! Also I really need to call her insurance company and her doctor and find out what the future holds as far as treatment and care options. This is just such a complicated mess.
Oh and my roof is leaking right above my desk! Along with the dining room and who knows where else.

My verse of the day is Isaiah 40:31

"but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings like eagles;
they shall run and not be weary;
they shall walk and not faint."

Mostly this is the verse I am claiming for my Mom so that she would be able to have the strength to walk again and to be patient while we wait for that to happen.

Seriously A Long Time

So, It appears it has been awhile since my last post here. Yikes. Looking back on my previous posts me thinks I am just plain weird.
I am writing now because my sweet Mother is in the hospital. She was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma June 20th and we've been in the hospital ever since! Tomorrow is the Fourth of July which is usually my most fun holiday. Mostly because family expectations are fairly low and Larry and I can just do whatever we want. Not the case this year. It looks like we'll be in the hospital. And my Mother reminded me that today is the 9th anniversary of my Gran's death. So I am certainly not leaving my Mother alone today!!! She has had a bad day today. And I have been really bored and thus have done lots of blogging on the blog for my mom stacesmom.blogspot.com and will most likely exceed my texting limit on my super cool iPhone this month. Yike I do not want to see that bill. Speaking of bills I should probably pay some. HOLY COW the doctor just came in. Yahoooo!

Welllll Crap

Are you kidding me? Now I have to worry about my lipstick making me stupid too?! As if checking every label on every toy and utensil I purchase or already own isn't enough! The chinese have to go and mess with my lipstick too. This is getting ridiculous. At this rate I am going to need a personal Lead detector for my home. I do not have enough brain cells to waste them on lead ingestion! And really, my lipstick! Is nothing sacred anymore.

My niece

I clearly have not written in a while. And truly that does make me sad. I wish I could blog more. Somehow, I think it is a sign of stability and having it all together. Not because blogging actually demonstrates those truths or fictions as the case may be. But because if I did have my act "together" I would have time and energy to do the things I really want to do. I would really go to the gym to exercise. I would not yell at my sweet children. I would not cram my face full of cookies every time I am upset. And I would get all the paperwork completed early enough to get help with my iteneraries!
I am home today apparently in need of a break from life's pressures. But when you're a Mom there really is no such vacation. This weekend I really need to take my niece on a trip to talk about becoming an adolescent and sex! I really don't know how I am going to get that done! On top of everything else I am supposed to do! But if I don't talk to her about God's love and plan for her. There really is noone who will. It is really sad but true. Both of her parents love her just enough to appear that they love her. I don't know if that makes any sense but it is true. Of course, maybe they are just too lazy to love her the way she needs to be loved. Either way it has somehow come to me to be the one to have the talk with her. I am actually excited about that part. I think it will be a nice time to clear up some misunderstandings she may already have. I love my sweet niece very much. And I understand the role I have as her aunt that can be very influential in her life. Although, I do wish I had enough money to really do it right. oh well, we shall see.
