That's a great update Sandy. It would be hard to have her in your home when she is able to care for herself. I think the first year and a half was the hardest for us. Now she is fine....we had a place called meals on wheels that would bring in lunch for her on the week days...icky meals and cost too much. After Christmas we started doing her lunches. My biggest problem is that I forget and then she will eat later than she should. We don't always eat lunch so that's why I forget.

Happy all is well Sandy!!!

Default and the beat goes on
just wanted to let y'all know we have both a commode and a working tub now. still painting etc. i learned how to relax my worrying and let some stuff roll off me and feel much better now, as does dad. however dad is threatening bodily harm to the authors of the 1040 and california state tax instructions. the dog is still happy to crap right where we want to step. and i have a part time job again after months of unemployment. life is good.
