What a wild week.
My sister arrived last Wednesday. At first Mom said she didn't want to go. Then, she said she did. So, Eileen got her a ticket, then she said she wasn't going. Eileen made arrangements with my sis-in-law, Kathy for Mom to stay with her. Mom thought she'd get to stay at Eileen's, alone. The night before Eileen flew here, she took Mom over to Kathy's for dinner, and left her there, and Mom was not happy about that. But, it turns out that Kathy had my nephew, Neil, stay there also, and Mom did very well once she got over the shock that Eileen left her there.
Izzy was in a play on Friday and Saturday. Friday, Eileen and I watched the boys, so Colleen and Trent could volunteer at the play. Then, We all went Saturday. Sunday, they all went out, and I rested my leg.
I will catch up on all the posts later. Frankie is here, and we are watching Paw Patrol, his favorite show.
Must scoot.
Hugs,
Trish

Trish,
I can only imagine how hard it must be trying to do what's best with your mother. My older brother and sister are getting to the point where their kids are not able to do anything with them and for my sister, I spend about four or five hours a week negotiating with her for her sons.
I hope your sister is able to get some rest and you too.
I can't get in Oh on my iPad mini for some crazy reason. It says I don't exist. But accepts my likes. But I can post on my IPad pro.
I went to Universal Studios in Orlando with my friend yesterday. I think every northerner was there. You could hardly move! I walked 20,000 steps. When we got back to the hotel I was one aching broad!!!
I went with my friend from Colorado. I won't do that anytime to soon!!!

Well, Carla, I hope you had somewhat of a good time at Universal.
Is WDW or Universal never crowded? I haven't been to Universal and haven't been to Disney since I first moved to FL. As you said, too darn crowded.
You are one busy lady. Always on the go. Have fun with your next adventure.

Good Morning Trish!
Does sound like you have had yet another busy week...always alot going on with you. Glad your mom settled down after her initial shock of being left behind...by her own choice...lol! Enjoy your visit with your grandson.
Well I need to vent...just have you ladies listen...
I had an awful day at work yesterday on my afternoon run. They allowed two kids on the van who were already carrying on. These two continued their cussing, threatening, screaming, turning the radio up and down, etc. for an hour. I could have returned them to the hospital, but I have learned that only creates more chaos and anger among the problem kids as well as whining from the kids who just want to get home. So I kept trying to drive despite the ongoing distractions.
I was so tense and frustrated my focus was off and I backed into a mailbox after dropping someone off! I was like SO done at this point. The distracted driving causing me to become a nervous wreck is just not worth it. So I finished my run, called my boss and after telling her what happened told her I was amending my notice to an immediate resignation. She was understandably not happy!
I feel bad bc I have never left a job without proper notice, but I just feel too frazzled to drive safely. I don't want to risk having an accident or getting another ticket.
So that is my sad tale for the day!
You ladies chat on
Kathy
Hi Kathy,
It is better you quit your job without giving notice than getting more and more stressed out because of the job.
I have been where you are and wanted to quit because of a horrible atmosphere a couple of times. Once was when I was going through my divorce. My female boss was a witch. I took the morning off to look for an apartment. I called her. With clenched teeth she told me to come in to work because it was the end of the month and we worked in accounting and it was month end closing. I went in, all right. I walked into her office and told her she was the most heartless person I ever met and told her goodbye, I am done. I don't want to have to be around you for another minute. Then I left.
So, good for you. Don't feel bad. Feel good that you are not so stressed out. No job in the world is worth dying or getting sick over.
