Not everyday is good

My oh my, what an unbelievable day!

The weather was awesome and some “things”got done around the house. That always feels good. The flip side wasn’t so good. The vet didn’t call with blood results. Hopefully, tomorrow. We did get a call from someone who was in distress. I won’t go into details but it was very sad. We are both so worried about this person. While, not her fault, it was not something we needed. We are dealing with so many worries.

We’re all packed and ready to leave for the mountains in the morning. No wifi! I’ll have to do most of the heavy lifting but I’m good with that. We have some fun activities planned.

Any of you who are caregivers, do you find you have to pretend to be happy cuz people are tired of you? I had to do that today. Got a friendly, chatty email that asked nothing about me or our situation but happily told me about her life which I cannot relate to at this time in my life. I can’t decide if she just assumes everything is perfect or if she’s terrified to ask. I won’t pretend just to make others feel good. What I will do is be polite and uninvolved. What a waste! Again, my fault for burning her out. Is there another way to fix this? Since no one is reading this blog I’m asking the universe how to proceed. Help!
