AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

I dunno if it's the weather ... the length of this winter is unending ... or the conflicts that I have had to resolve, BUT I am so looking for a warm spot to rest my tired body. Some where outdoors preferably. Because Mark started at a new company we will not be going to Florida in March. Fine, because it was during spring break when winter usually leaves Illinois. But this year, I figure winter will last until June...BLAH! Mrs H and her live in had a horrible fight ... argument about the live in's blood pressure, and her asking the visiting nurse to take it for her. Mrs H was sure that the visiting nurse would charge her insurance or medicare or whatever. No amount of talking mattered. I tried to ignore them both, nod when prompted and just said, "there, there baseball season is almost here" Mrs H will behave when the White Sox start playing. Both were crying by the end of the morning. When I went back this evening they both were still mad, Mrs H sitting mumbling and live in face red and mad. I gave live in my favorite relaxing tea for bedtime, Mrs H was on to something else. By the time I left they both seem better. Then I had to brave the wind and blowing snow to go to the store and try to send a bill via Western Union. The girl at Mejier didn't want to do it so she acted like she couldn't, so I threatened to go to Dominick s and suddenly her co-worker figured the machine out. Then my dang debit card wouldn't work at the gas pump, when I clearly had money on it. I sat in my car and screamed ... felt a bit better after a dose of loud music. My solution? A hot cup of tea and a soak...the cure for all ailments big and small!

I think that by the time you left they both seemed better because of you. You soothed them in little imperceptible ways. Now if you could only do that for Rose. ~Mary
