Muffy, praying for your infection to get better. I know kidney infections can be bad. Are you drainking cranberry juice. They say it helps. Though trying to drink plenty of water to help flush out the kidneys should help as well.
Josefina, Taking care of the elderly parents can be a challange. I was having to travel back and forth to another city 4 hours away to help with my mother and then my older sister when she was rushed to Charlettesville hosp. when Lynchburg hosp. couldn’t do anything for her. She had rectal cancer and refused to have anything done about it. She passed on a year later. Mom passed in 1995. Having parents closer to you is so much easier, but sometimes that is not the case. Now it seems DH and I both are getting up in age and DH is in need of my help. But at least most of the kids live within 15 mins. of us if we need them. Hope it doesn’t come to that. But you never know.
But on a lighter note, I am still working on getting the kitchen cabnets cleaned out. Has taken me a long time as tomorrow will be 3 days working on them. Used to be able to do it in one day. Funny what old age can do. Been working on the food storage to make sure all the older foods are in kitchen to get used up first. DH had awhile back grabbed some canned chicken and other things without looking at dates even though I marked them on front of cans. So was moving some things to the back closet and bringing out the ones that was older. So got all that straight now. He needs to keep an eye on the dates and not just grab stuff from back room.
