I'm waiting on the doctor to come and tell my FIL whether he can go home today or not. If he goes home, hubby is going to take off from work and go get him, if he stays, I'm going to have to go get my MIL and bring her home for a rest. I sure hope he can come home today ... I'm sooo tired. I'm taking the week off from teaching at least. It's so cold and windy here ... about blow you away out there. I'm hoping I don't have to go out in it (even if it means no business). It's only in the 50s out there, too. Good day to curl up under a blanket and read or watch TV (or sleep)!
My kids didn't even go see their grandfather all weekend ... neither one of them! What's wrong with them??? It makes me so mad! I just talked to my son via MSN and told him a few things ... nicely ... maybe I shouldn't have been so nice, huh? He said they were in Nashville Sat. at his wife's sisters and then his wife was tied up at the funeral home Sun. with a student because the boy's mother had died. I suggested that if that had been HER grandfather in the hospital she would have found a few minutes to visit him. He got mad and said she loved Papaw like he was her own grandfather but this little boy needed her yesterday. OH ... that pissed me off royaly. If she loved him so much why did she make her whole family miss his 87th BD party a week ago? Garrett ... their 9 year old ... had a 'project' he had to do so THEY ALL had to stay home. I know she could have dealt with that herself if somebody had to stay and at least my son could have come to the party. But no ... he had to stay there, too. They haven't been to see those old people in months ... and NEVER call them. She doesn't give a flip about them. And they never come or call here unless they need something. He began today to make excuses about why they never come around. They work late, have housework and laundry, the kids have homework. I told him to just not worry about it and we'd talk about it later. I told him to go see his Papaw on his lunch break because he thought a lot of him and because he wouldn't be here much longer and I'd talk to him another time. What else could I do. Only ... I'm NOT going to talk to him ABOUT THAT another time. Let him do what he's gonna do. I just don't care anymore!!! He said we need to just get together and eat out on Sundays. I just said our churches get out at different times because I don't even want to do that. The kids are awful ... they are fighting with their parents and disrespectful and won't eat and I'm usually just glad when it's over. They are much better when they are alone with us. Much calmer and do exactly what we say most of the time. When we're all together, the kids usually just either ignore or laugh at most of what I say and most of the time I just stuck at the kid's end of the table anyway. They talk to each other most of the time and not to us ... maybe my kids not coming around is not such a bad thing after all.
We'll just get the grandkids every now and then and let the older ones stay home!
(At least the little ones still love us!!!)
They do grow up so fast..cute kitty, mine will not let you hold them for a picture! Nice BD graphics!
I called the Rheumatologist in Nashville today and left him a message that I had to have a prednisone dosepack. I'm dying here. I'm hurting so bad. I can't move anything without pain! I had to go pick my MIL up at the hospital at one today and take her home for a rest and I couldn't even put my hand on the top of the steering wheel. I couldn't hold my arm up that high. I hate to have to take the prednisone but I need it. The pain meds aren't working too good right now ... this time of year is always a bad time for me. It's supposed to get down in the 30s at night here this weekend.
