What I Did On Wednesday, by Judy, Who Won't Remember Wednesday in the Morning


I think I have decided on the top color and one of the two bottom colors (i have not yet decided which) for the half bath. Maybe. I have to live with it for awhile. It will also house some of my collection of cobalt blue bottles and hanging stained glass-like thingies. I think it goes well together.
Today I went with my dad for his quarterly doctor's appointment. Since he cannot have joint replacement surgery he received cortizone shots in both knees. He's a tough old guy. I nearly fainted. The needles were HUGE, and since no nurse was available, I had to assist.
As is our routine after medical procedures, we went to lunch at Old Country Buffet. Lucky for us, someone in OCB had just lost their lunch in the moments before we arrived. So, I'm officially on the 'i just smelled puke' diet.
I hit a huge dip in the road and bottomed out my dad's car. I suppose it must have started out as a pot hole, but it evolved into something much grander, and less visable. So if you live around here, avoid going west on Burton just before US131. Nasty.
From there we went to the nursing home to visit mom. She had a great new haircut, was happy, and told us at least a dozen time that she 'just LOVES it here!'. She doesn't really know where 'here' is, but she kept saying that she hopes she can stay all through the summer.
I got home just before THGGM. I made him chicken chili for supper and promptly came down with a migraine.
Doesn't 'migraine' come from the root word 'migrate'? When is it going to fly south? When?

I think I have that same color sample.. among others for my kitchen. I have a hard time making that final choice!
As hard as it was for you to take your Mom out of her home,and to a nursing home - how blessed she (and you) are that she is so happy. Our greatest wish is that our parents later years are happy and safe, and thankfully she is both.
I will stay clear of Burton before US 131.
