Hello!
Jane - Nice run!
Alisha - I've heard of PCOS. That can be really tough on weight loss! Hope the liver tests come back okay! Your weather sounds wonderful! We've had some great days, but it's going to barely make 60 tomorrow. Ugh! Spring is so tough here! It's up and down, and up and down. Just when you get used to a few nice, warm days, it gets cold again!
Today was a beautiful day! Was up at 5:00 (blech!) to be at the Triggs Golf Course in downtown Providence by 6:30 for a 6:56 tee time. You know how much I love early mornings! I must say though, it was gorgeous and great to be finished before noon! We had brunch and I was home by 1 p.m. instead of getting home at 3 p.m. and the day being done. It got cloudy and started getting cool after brunch. We hit the early 70s by 11. Mid-week we should be in the 80s!
I talked to my brother today. He saw mom on Mother's Day. He said she wasn't very engaged and is starting to get lesions on her skin. The head person at the facility called him this week. They are moving mom to the next level of care. She's lost 2 lbs. and is having trouble eating. She needs more care now. They are also calling hospice to get evaluations done and paperwork started to prepare for that phase. The head person is very good there according to my brother and she likes to get things ready early. He said that she told him that mom still has good days when she talks to them and does well, but she suspects that she won't last but another 6-10 months. That's just an estimate. So, we talked about arrangements for mom after she passes.
This is a crap year. Even with Stephen's graduation and getting a job, the move is going to be stressful and he needs to find work over the summer to support the second household. His dad died and he's dealing with all of that and now we could lose mom before the end of the year.
He left for Ohio on Tuesday and found us an apartment on Wednesday. He'll probably be moving early to mid-June since that's when the apartment will be ready. There was no availability in July. He'll find work when he gets there. From there, he went to Chicago for the R in Finance conference that he goes to every year. Tomorrow, he'll go back to BGSU to discuss the student fund with the professor who used to run it, then he'll head to Wisconsin to check out his dad's place there and look for documents, then he'll come home for a bit before he has to go back to Wisconsin for a memorial and to spread his dad's ashes with his sister. At some point in there, he has to put the boat and shell on the market, pack and probably move. Oh, and he's doing all this driving instead of flying! Ugh!
I just want to curl up in a ball and hide in a hole until it's all over!
On the bright side, I've worked out twice. I'm doing the XTrain 30-day strength only rotation and my golf game improved a bit today.
Whew! When it hits the fan it REALLY hits the fan!
I hope you two have a great day tomorrow and a good week!
