Hi everyone
It seems we are all going through trials atm and this is not at all easy - we somehow keep on keeping on though - I will not be a Pollyanna about this - it is hard yards and we are allowed to be unhappy at times - now seems to be the right time.
My daughter - I am unhappy, disappointed and angry with her - and I am allowed to be - I don't intend to tell her how much - I think though when it comes to old age homes she has crossed the line - that is set in concrete - that old age homes is a dirty word for me and I have no intention of going there.
I have contacts and the young woman who came to help me wash and get dressed today has worked there and knows a bit - it's not for me - and we can't see the future - I am to clear in my mind - and strong willed - and my life is interesting.
The burn on my arm might scar - it is healing well - I do heal fast - I only have one patch under the bandage and another one over a small patch away from the bandage. It is in the itchy stage now which is a good sign and my shoulder is complaining about doing things because it had a rest but this does not run my life.
I don't want to change anything about my daughter - I never have - her opinions are her business and it would be polite if she didn't share them. I don't share mine - and I think she has a lot to learn and life will teach her if she wants to learn. It's up to her - as it is for everyone - I have always wanted to learn and I have.
And I know enough to keep my distance right now.
I am with all of you tonight - I am having discomfort typing at the moment but I am here - not in a hospital out of touch -
Best wishes to all of you
