The "free" TV has arrived. Too bad I don’t know how to hook it all up, but later today I will see if I can do it. I’m imagining having a full screen TV to watch as opposed to the little one I have in my bedroom. I’m having a productive week so far in terms of accomplishing things. The cats haven’t fought yet, and are actually touching noses. I’m letting them adjust and not giving them too much affection as I want them to turn to each other for their *****. Soon I’m sure they will be ****** together and p****** with each other. I haven’t told Danny about my new cat as I’m sure ***** freak out, but it is my decision as to what pets I have in my own place. Because he’s allergic to cats, ***** see it as I’m not being considerate of his *****, and one more step of not reconciling with him at some point. It’s been scorching hot here. Too hot! I applied for a couple of jobs online, and interviewing is a scary thought as in the past few years, I get anxiety attacks in situations like that. There is so much construction going on around my place that it is driving me crazy. For the past 10 days they put a new roof on the house right next door to me, and now the neighbour across the alley is tearing down his garage and is going to be building a bigger one. Plus the city put notices in our mailboxes that they are going to be doing construction for the next 2 weeks around where I live. I’ll be glad when it cools down and I can shut all my windows so that I don’t have to hear all this construction. (((Liz))) Kevin seems to be doing worse memory wise. He was surprised to see his brother come to see him at the hospital, as he thought he was still in Edmonton, and not our local hospital. The hospital staff are asking family when he is going to be transferred to a rehab facility. The family don’t know and have been expecting the hospital staff to have that information. His mother has told my son-in-law that they can take Kevin on overnight visits, and it is kind of expected that they will take him. Because he is so confused, my daughter doesn’t want to do it, as she is afraid that he may go into my granddaughters‘ rooms and lay on their bed out of confusion, which would really frighten the 8 year old. Every time Kevin goes there to visit, he keeps asking my daughter or son-in-law if this is a new house. He remembers them living in the very first house they bought, and this is the 3rd house they have bought after the first house. Kevin could also fall down the basement stairs as he doesn’t ever remember where the bathroom is. My son-in-law is stressed out as he sees that Kevin may need placement in a nursing home and he is only in his early 30’s. I need to get groceries at some point today as my fridge is pretty bare. I woke up with a headache this morning and am feeling a bit stressed out and I’m not sure why. I couldn’t fall asleep last night so I got up and ate. Not a very good coping skill but it is what it is for now! The appraisal for the house got done yesterday, and the appraiser said it would take 3 days before it reached Dale’s bank. Then we’ll all have to sign paperwork and the house and property will no longer belong to us! That will be a relief not to have to deal with renters again. My ex-sister-in-law is cleaning and managing the house at the present time. I am wondering if I should have gone and had an xray done on my foot, as it is still painful, bruised, swollen, and there is a bump on the top of my foot. It could be that I broke a bone in my foot. I don’t have a doctor here in the city, so I would have to go to a Medi Centre and that probably would be an all day affair. Carole
