This past week has been very difficult for me. Not sure how but sometime last fri or Sat Mom fell and fractured some vertebra. I had no idea that they were broken until she was x rayed on monday at the er. so she spent 3 nights in the hospital and now is in the nursing home. She can walk but is in alot of pain and has been drugged up alot so she really dosn't know what is going on. guess that is a good thing. What happens next at this point I don't really know.
Went back to teh center of all evyl work yesterday. Mom did fine. I goofed off way too much while I was at home. lol Thank you feet for reminding me.
It has rained almost nonstop all week and doesn't look like it will go away anytime soon. At least I am better off than bro, he had hurricane force winds blow through his place late last week and he is still without power. He said he lost 6 trees and his basement is flooded with about 4" of water. yuck
I have been home all week. I went ahead and took a LOA at work until we could get something figured out to do with mom. Someone from the area Agency on Aging was going to come over today but she backed out because of all the rain. So we will try again tomorrow. Bro was going to look at a facility up there to put her in. It isn't a full on nursing home, more of an assisted living center kind of like the one my grandmother stayed in the last 5 yrs of her life. But of course this evyl weather has put all of that on hold for now.
I am totally liking not being at work...LOL

Bes my first post over here at DW. like the fact that I control my user name over here, some idiot over at LJ grabbed Push before me and then of course never ever used their journal. Bah F'n posers.
Been having a difficult week dealing with elderly mom stuffs. Her arthritis has gotten really bad the last couple of weeks, so much that she has been having trouble getting in and out of bed. Once I get her up and moving a bit she is better but this stuff scares the shit out of me. I missed work Saturday and am due to go back tomorrow, I hope I can. As much as I despise the place I still need the money and insurance.
Bro says he will try to get me some help, so we'll see what he comes up with. I know that I can take a leave but don't want to unless I just have to. If I do I will be alright money wise for a while but I hate to go through all my savings. I think it isn't fair that I am the one who is making all the sacrifices money and time wise while my sibs are sitting on the sidelines doing their own things with what seems to me no worries at all. Or perhaps I'm just a whiny little bitch that expects too much out of other people. This shit sucks donkey balls.
Anyway sorry to depress. Life won't stay sucky forever. I hope.
Oh forgot, I bought some stocks 2 weeks ago and as of today I am up $25 wooooo go me :)
