Thank you all: I'm grateful for the support & validation. And seriously, if we did think there was a chance that, as she is now, we could get her into assisted living and have it take, we'd pursue it. But she's too demented to be rational on the subject and not demented enough not to know what's going on...
My typing is also radically changed for the worse. It's really tough
Yikes, ita. I hope things settle down.
In better news, I managed to wangle a site visit tomorrow, so I'm going to see a lighthouse down on the peninsula. And I've decided to go to Chicago for my birthday, so I can eat at my brother's restaurant and attend his yearly holiday party and play with his dogs. This will conveniently get me out of town for my office's holiday party, which I expect to be a drag.
Oooh, another Chicago visit by a Buffista!! Let us know if you'll have some free time, and maybe we can arrange a meal somewhere! I had such a great one with Debetesse, aurelia and shrift last night.
Oh ita, I am so sorry. I know the typing thing has happened to me because of my current meds, and that is rough enough without the other issues.
I think I was remembering the "no power, no water" thing about wells. That is sort of an issue if you lose power a lot.
It turns out the well thing was a mistake on the part of the agent listed it--it is connected to city water.
Yay?
I am going to meet the agent over there after work to see if I still like the place in the dark. If I do, I think I will probably ask him to make an offer.
I'm trying to avoid my company's Christmas party, too, but Hubby wants to go. "It's a great feed! We can eat then slip out." It's not that great. And it says "best dress" on the invitation. My best dress is an Elizabethan gown that requires hoops for full effect. I'm not pulling that out in front of upper management.

Oh, how exciting, Perkins! I'm rather jealous. And y'all know that Nutty just closed on a condo, too.

Hee. The Buffistas, we're getting older, and having children, and buying houses, and and and...it's madness!
...imagine someday when we're all old and retired and have that to explain not coming up with the right word or forgetting what to post. And with all that time on our hands, we'll have even faster moving threads! Of course, by then we'll all have computer implanted in our eyes or something.
I *think* I'm sleeping better and taking less pain meds. But I'm not sure. If I do feel my ability to do my job is being compromised I'll pull back, stat. Because I had a period in there where it was going *really* well.
And I just left a message on a guy's machine suggesting he fix a rattling fixture lest I go on a violent rampage. Oh, oops?
I hate this peri-menapausal crap. Pain. Pain in new places.
Eeee! That's exciting, Perkins!
ita, I hope the meds settle soon. That sounds like all kinds of not fun.
