That Train has left the Station

May 2010  Rehab.

Dad is coming Home today. 

Medical equipment should be here soon.

Bed

Oxygen concentrator

Mechanical Lift

Geri-chair

etc.

Dad should be here by 2pm.

Replaced the sump pump

Then the "up" pipe started to seep, now that's fixed

Notice a large water spot on the kitchen ceiling, called on that

Called to see about getting a removable ramp built out the front door

Work switched me to 12 hour shifts, (was four 9 hour shifts)

Cut back to 3 shifts.

Work called to ask if I could work today.

Some one asked me today,

"when is your vacation?" 

I had one Sept. 2006

(sailing on a schooner in Penobscot Bay)

Can't really count the last Mexico trip . . .

since I got no sleep as I seemed to be 24/7 with Dad

And my visits home . . . they REALLY don't qualify.

Actually they count about as much as going to my job.

They keep me SANE but . . .

they definitely are not vacation.
