I will miss this view

my back yard this morning

Don’t hate me but I’m a fan of Glen Beck. Me being conservative and all that. Before I met my husband which was about 10 years ago he didn’t have any political or religious views. It looks like through the years I have rubbed off on him. Unfortunately, I have turned him into an extreme conservative. He takes up all my Dvr hours taping Hanity, Glen Beck, and O’Reilly and not forgetting taking up all my airways with the likes of Rush and Savage and all the local conservative radio talk host. My Kate plus 8–(I don’t know if John is still in the picture)and Deadliest Catch which I have dvrd are continuously being cancelled out by his shows-even though we have two dvers. He hates it when I watch CNN. I do realize that this show is extremely far left liberal, but they have cool graphics compared to the Fox network and I hate to admit this but the girls are much more attractive compared to the girls on Fox network. I do take exception in Mary Catherine who is a Fox commentator She isn’t hot but her intelligence makes her hot. she can bicker with the best of them.

Speaking of CNN, Now you know I have a crush on Anderson Cooper, yes, I know he is gay but a still have a mad crush on him. He isn’t the most hottest guy on tv, but there is something about him that really gets me all warm and fuzzy. I just want to hang out with him on one of his whirl wind tours of saving something. Perhaps, I should invite him to come to our home and do a blilp about what it’s like to lose your house in foreclosure. or to see our tipi and live in the wilds of humptulips with me-I like the later options.

My sisters where planning on leaving for cabo this weekend. For the all girls foray. I still have a throne in my side that I wasn’t invited to join the girls this year, My sister didn’t think my husband would let me go. It still hurts but life moves ahead. I heard through the sister grapevine that they are going but this was a couple of days ago, things regarding the Swine Flu may have put a damper on there fun. If you could see me smiling now.

I will be giving my two week notice on May first. I have verbally told one person but now the entire facility knows that my time is short. I kid you not the hospice nurses were madly texting my departure to the entire hospice organization, My Health Services Director told me that I’m BAILING OUT, the Administrator wants me to donate my ipod with my thousands of songs from the golden days of music. The hardest part for me is not seeing my residents any more, even Little Luella, one of my hospice Residents. Today, she threw a cup of med pass shake in my face, you should have seen me with the shake dripping off my face, hair and swirled into the inside of my shirt, my ears were even dripping. After I cleaned up in the bathroom my sweet little lady clung on to me and would not let go even putting her head on my shoulder. It was her way of saying “I’m sorry”. It was a little hard passing out meds with her tiny 90 lb body clingy on me, but you know what, I will miss these times. The Good and the not so good.

And then there is Rose, she is another one of my sweethearts also on hospice, thankgod I was able to handle her daughter who was over bearing about her mother’s care and what meds she should be taking and how she should be taking them. I chit you not, the day she was admitted the daughter gave me a typed out 3 page list of instructions on how to handle her mother. I soon learned that Rose has a sound mind-she told me she was ready to die and didn’t want to take anymore medical meds. “”Just comfort meds now”. At first her daughter was hurt but came to realize her mother was now in charge. “NO MORE SALT TABLETS” I’m happy to report I was able to intervene on Rose’s last wish for her end of life care. The daughter has taken heart and has fully given the reins over to her mother

*I have much more to say about Rose and plan on writing an entire entry about her soon.

You are a truly caring person…

everything must go sale sounds like you’re not just giving away junk, ya know? I am sad for you, having to leave Rose and your other residents. I know how much they come to mean to you, and to say goodbye.. I secretly hope your sisters didn’t get to go to Cabo…I’m mean!

what a lovely picture. i can see why you’ll miss the view. i’d like to read the rose entry. sounds like you did a good job dealing with the daughter. i wonder if i’d be able to do that. i find it hard to deal with people like that. i don’t know about the sale. moving sale sounds good to me. CNN is far left liberal? Jon isn’t in the picture with Kate? (no i don’t watch.) the things i don’t pick up on.

your backyard is gorgeous. i am sorry you are having to give it up 🙁 i love andersoon cooper. what a guy.

I’m so sorry that you’re losing your house & have to sell everything. Your residents are going to miss you, they were lucky to have someone who cared so much.

That really is a beautiful picture. But your cabin is adorable, too. Just call it a Moving Sale. No need to let anyone in on your private business.

simply gorgeous picture
