I'm still here, reading the blogs and emails. Life has been quite busy and crazy here lately. Not to say it as a bad thing, just busy with grandkids, Rick and such. Megan will be moving back home next Tuesday or Wednesday and I will also be taking a break from taking care of George. As much as I love my family, I found that there was very little time for me. Oh my, that sounds so selfish! But I am ready for the break. As far as Rick is concerned, his doctor is trying to find some relief for Randy and I. There is a lot of red tape to go through for any assistance from the state. We finally found out from SSI why he is on disability. Randy's parents never told anyone and they destroyed all evidence of medical diagnosis. He is is mentally retarded and has personality disfunction. Of course his doctor or the state can't help us too much without specific records of his diagnosis which we do not have. I have been trying to locate records of that, but the doctor who diagnosed him is dead and the records were moved to another facility. I think I may have found them and need to call for his records.
We have been trying to get away on the weekends camping at state parks in campin' cabins. We really do enjoy that. We're looking for a small camper to purchase again. Something I can drive too.
I had a wonderful Mother's Day. Randy prepared a fantastic cook-out for me and the girls and all my babies were here. It was great!
We too are trying to sell the lake home. Our renter is sooooo irresponsible and it is a battle every month to collect the rent. We have someone very interested in buying it on land contract, and will be showing it this weekend. Randy will be taking alot less than the value of the home but he really wants to unload it. It is a cute little place with a great view of the lake and in a very nice community. I'll miss it.
Liz, I sent the "bird-lady" an email with the link to my public flickr but don't know if she got it. I'll have to send her a follow up email. I like Paul too. I think they will be good for each other.
Megan and Mel keep raving on your wilted lettuce salad Diane, I do want that recipe. I can still taste it from when mom would make it!
Sounds like you are having a good time with all of the events at Tryon Palace. That is so cool Lori! I loved the photo of you in your costume!
Time is running short for me now, George will be here soon and we have to take Rick to town for a doc's appt this morning.
I hope all is well with my sisters and I promise I'll be a better blogger!
Love ya's!

Yay! You are alive and well. I had looked at the blog earlier before your post showed up so please disregard my comment about not knowing what is going on with you.
ReplyDeleteWow, you have been busy too. We should be called "The Busy Hope to Bees. I am glad you will be able to have a break from family obligations soon for awhile. As much as they are loved you need to have some time to yourself.
Rick sounds like a full time job. It must be stressful for you and Randy sometimes.
Keep in touch. I miss you and love you.
