My MIL is doing much better today. We went to visit her on Saturday (she's in a nursing facility). Talk about boring! I'm not sure how long I was in the room by myself, but most of that time, she had her eyes closed cuz she was in pain, and just in general not feeling well. We were there for about 4hours! They talked about bringing her home, but she's a fall risk and needs someone 24/7. There is no one in the family that can be there that way. And, since she only has 1 bedroom, there wouldn't even be a place for them to sleep. Hubby went to visit her while I was out taking care of the horses this morning. He says she's in much better spirits, so the pain meds must be working. Plus, he's gotten permission to put a bird feeder up by the window next to her bed. She likes to watch the birds. So I think for now, she's going to stay there. I know my parents will go and visit her, and the family will all go, so it's probably best for her to stay there for now. And once she is able to go back home, I know my DD will be checking in on her. She's starting a new job in 2 weeks that is literally right in front of the apartment complex.
It poured this morning. I was so glad I took the truck. Only problem is, I have to go back out to the farm. I can probably take the bike-unless hubby gets home B4 I leave and offers to drive me out. What I really want to do is to go back to bed.
Starting tomorrow, I'll finally be able to really start on getting the house clean. I'm hoping that by the end of next week I'm finally done. I had it almost cleaned when I started to work, then got nothing done over the summer. Once the upstairs is done, I'm going to get started on the basement. Once I have the one area done, I'm bringing Cindy home. I don't care what hubby says. There are just too many cats out at the farm, and I can't keep her healthy out there. She's lost weight, but I think she has put some back on. But I don't want her to spend another winter out there. I think she'll enjoy being able to curl up in front of a nice, warm fire all winter long.
