[QUOTE="Fran, post: 300533, member: 3"] Good morning my dear friends. It's another hot steamy August day in N. Carolina. Sigh. Trish, what a hectic day for you. Sounds like you kept it all together though. I dislike having my schedule changed suddenly but that's life isn't it? Once I get too inflexible I end up being an old lady curmudgeon. How sad about your friend who fell. It's a worry. My mom recently fell as she was going to sit on the kitchen chair. She hit into the wall and landed on the floor. Couldn't get up for an hour or so. She refuses to call 911 for help or call family. She is so stubborn and a difficult child in her own right. Being on blood thinners is keeping her alive and active but it allowed her to bleed profusely from the fall so that her whole upper arm was black and blue(mostly eggplant purple). How wonderful that you checked up on her and helped her to bed. Wiped out, I feel your pain. When your body wants a nap, the craving is like an addiction to drugs. Fortunately, it passes and you can go on to the full days we Americans come to think of as productive. Hope you get a break. Marguerite, good for you for getting a dress for the wedding. I know you must be relieved. I hate those batwings but what can you say? It's just age. LDM, I'll be joining you for bootcamp work out after Labor Day. If I don't start working out, they will find me passed out on the street. It is 5 days a week for 4 wks. I am hoping it will jump start my exercise routine. I have really not done a routine since I moved 2 yrs ago. It's time. I worry about muscle mass loss and all that stuff that comes with my age group. I am hoping to not jinx it but difficult child is doing exceptionally well. He is in pretty good shape to get the job he applied for. A background check is being done. He is dating a young lady who seems to be someone with similar interests but different life skills. There seems to be a good relationship developing. difficult child told her to slow down and get to know him better before they decide to be a regular dating couple. Pretty mature thinking for difficult child. Apartment living is something that will happen in the next year if a roommate is found. He finished up the laundry without being told when I was unable to do so. Big, big step for difficult child. He drove from Minnesota to Pittsburgh with my baby sis to help her yesterday. It's a good 16hr drive and through Chicago. difficult child did the driving through Chicago which is intimidating to a NT person. He will visit with my family for a week and then help sis drive back with her two boys. easy child is in his dorm with 3 roommates. He seems very happy and settled. He is determined to learn and to enjoy life. He even cooked dinner last night. Pretty shocking since I have never seen him willingly approach anything but the microwave. Life is looking promising for both son's. I am hoping this will be a good year for all of us. Have a good day. [/QUOTE]
