Getting Back on Track

This morning was I began with the goal of getting back on track. Amazing how many things you can let go when you go through a time like this. Overwhelming might be a better word. However, as Cat says "Ya need a project, Mom!"

Let's see, start with finances. Eeeeeeeeewwww! Yep, wrote the check for the house payment out of the wrong account. Thank God for small towns. The lady at the bank said, "Don't worry, we wouldn't bounce your check. Just get a deposit in when you can." That is only something you would get in Smalltown USA. Pay the lights, gas, water and phone...gotta have 'em. Oh, yeah, check on the cars and the cable. Now we are set. TV on, cooking with gas and the house is still ours. I can do this.

Off to the Dr for the 100th time recently for one more disability form. I hate that. I wanna go to work! That is another story. For now, I am home and although not liking it, I had to get the forms and fax 'em in. Then..........I get to go to ANOTHER Dr. this afternoon! When taking Andy for his post-op visit, I am conferring with his shoulder Doc to see if he can help me. I am determined to get better.

Joe and Mike are going to take Laundry Mountain to the laundry-mat and conquer it. That will be a tremendous relief as I can smell it. I can hardly wait for the bill, but anything is better than the stench of dirty laundry.

Calls were made to ERHS and Lansing Community College to excuse the multitude of absences recently. Michael is lucky everyone loves him or he wouldn't be walking to Pomp and Circumstance soon.

Joey and I set a game plan to improve the home situation, which will make me feel better. I am so glad he is here.
