frustration with Mom

***note this was written when I was tired and frustrated and not feeling well myself so take some of it with a grain of salt***

I am so tired of being mom's whipping post.
I know she hurts all the time and it gets to her.
I know how hard it must be not to be able to do everything she wants to do but it is not my fault.
She wants to try the trials from the dr's office then gets mad at me when I remind her to do them

She only does the Peak Flow meter two times a day and the test puffs twice and you'd think it was every 3 hrs the way she bitches about doing it.

Now there may be something wrong with LIttle Bit. The vet called and said there was something wrong with his enzymes and we need to try to get a unine sample. CRap..I hope its something simple to fix. She'd really go off the deep end without him.

Her hearing is getting worse but of course it's not her...it's everybody else.
her memory is lousy but it's not her fault its mine...

No mmatter how hard I try to do things right it never is..
I don't put the forks in the right spot in the dishwasher or I didn't put something in the right spot.




sigh...

oh well tomorrow's another day.

nothing much



I put together this swing and this hammock. So getting good at putting things together from a kit.


Weather was nice for the weekend but turned nasty cool and wet Monday and Tuesday.
today was niceish but had to go to bed with a horrid headache this a.m



The greenbeans I planted along the fence are coming up well..I think there are 15 stalks growning. I also stuck some peas in there but doubt if they'll come up.


I put another tomato in the front garden and peppers in 2 weird spots so should be fun to see if they grow.

walking the dogs

Or should I say chasing them? or at least chasing Joey

I was taking Joey..our nieghbors terrier ( who is quite fat) and he broke his leash and started running for home. Luckily it was early evening so traffic wasn't heavy but that darned dog refused to stop. and luckily again it was only about 3 blocks from the house and he ran straight home..but I can't run at all and he would stop and wait for me to almost catch him then take off again. grrrr
THEN I came home and got Little bit so I could take him with me and go up and pay the Avista bill.. WEll, my stubborn Pom refused to walk along 15th street so I ended up carrying him until we got well off 15th. he's not spoiled not that dog. lol

So other news

I won a RaoK gift pack from a gal on Y-I-F and it came today.

Its a bath set with loofa sponges and candles and bath salts and a thing to scrub your back with and a bath pillow and bath splash.

So think I'll go take a bath. lol

Hmmm what to write about

Quiet day.
Mom wasn't feeling great so she napped most of the afternoon. ( but of course if you mention it she'll deny it and just say she was laying there not sleeping.. Ha you could hear her zzzzzzz's clear across the room.



oh well..


Went to some yard sales but didn't have much luck. did find a digital camera for Laura if she wants it. Plus talked to a gal at one yard sale and got a big sack of rhubarb. yum

I just won a box of bathing stuff from a contest on Yes-its-free.com one of the gals was having a contest. so be fun to see what I get.

I planted some green beans along the front fence and found 8 of them are starting to poke thru. Now just to get warm weather for them to grow with.
My peppers haven't grown a bit and the tomato plant just looks so bedraggled.

WE NEED SUN...

Rainy Friday

Okay, would you believe I somehow lost my saved link to this? had to do some work before I found it.


the other day I went with mom to the grocery store and ran to Rite aid to pick up some pop first.
dumped it in the trunk and went into the store. AFter shopping for 1 hr or so..( Mom is the slowest shopper in the world) reached into my purse for my Albertsons card which is on my keychain and no keys.. realizing I left them in the trunk had a second of panic. As soon as I was done with the purchases ran out to find the car with keys in the trunk still there. phew.. still haven't told mom though.


She and her forgetfulness is really starting to worry me. She repeats stuff over and over then complains when a neighbor lady does the same thing. When I call her on it she gets mad and says it's not the same thing.
She gets disgusted when our neighbor feed the dog food from her plate but doesn't see anything wrong with feeding L.b at the table.
It drives me nuts when she complains that she hasn't heard from friends lately but when I suggest she call them she says that she doesn't want to bother them.


She makes fun of a neighbor who complains a lot about bad health but doesn't think that her constant witching about her PHN pain,breathing problems, sore back,foot pain now back pain is in the same catagory. Oh no she's the only one who's allowed to have pain.

====================



went to Factory Liquidators yesterday and bought a hammock for the back yard. Got it put together and looks nice. now if it would just stop raining so we can use it.

and that another gripe from me. She keeps saying she saw the ad and we went up to buy it.
NO NO NO.. Robin and I stopped in at F.L on the way home from the library and I found it. Came home and told her about it and we drove up there and go it.

I know it's petty to be griped at that but I am.

She refuses to try to remember anything right. I know she can especially if it is something to embarrass me.
I hate it when she says thing that hurt me and then makes fun of me.


I wish I had the nerve to say these things to her but I don't. I admit I am a chicken who hates making waves.
I'll have the house clean except for maybe one corner and of course that's what she see's not what I do but what I don't do.

Is anybody there? Does anybody care?

Rain rain rain

I am tired of rain.

Today was Robin's Tball picnic and so since she was spending the weekend with us I took her. It POURED rain. she and I forgot her glove so she wasn't happy about that and luckily some nice gal lent her a glove for a bit. the other stuff she was going to do didn't require it. but got rained out anyway.

Friday June 3

Wow.. didn't realize how much time had gone since I blogged here.

Mom had her birthday on Tuesday.. 74 years old.
My Uncle Bill and Aunt Marilyn came, as well as Uncle Darrell who was married to my Aunt CArolyn who died 3 years ago. We went to Robin's t-ball game and she actually put somebody out on 2nd. yeah Robin.

I got mom some of those solar lights for the back ground. She got lots of nice stuff.
Weather was nice first part of last week then on Tuesday turned cold and rainy and still is.
Robin is spending the weekend here as her folks are taking a short trip to Seattle to see a ball game and have a romantic weekend.

Most of the yards in the area are turning out beautiful. few yards have to be mowed though. Some folks across the street moved and left their yard unmowed. new guy moved in and started to mow and the mower quit so hopefully he'll finish tonight.
