Me: I love you

Mom: Eating chicken legs (her favorite)...This is good spring chicken.
Mom: Look at him. He fell asleep in his food. (Looking at Lamb...the guy at her table...sure enough, his head was in his plate of food.)
Mom: Where are you going? Home? I won't see you tomorrow. Maybe I'll come back on Sunday.

A New Year

Here it is....2012.
What a week (inside and outside of work)....I am exhausted from doing two jobs at work....some of my work has to be put on the back burner till next week when Barb is back. She is out this week unexpectedly due to the death of her brother-in-law. So tragic.
After months of not knowing what would happen as far as a new 5-6 grade school, we finally found out tonight at a special meeting for "us neighbors." They are going to put the new school next to Ellis and put ball fields behind our house.
Roger and I went to a care conference for Mom today. Nothing has changed, except her weight. She now weighs 91 lbs., down from 96 in early December. I wonder what is the least she can weigh......
