I need HAPPY MOMENTS"

The computer troubles  are over---
I think we have it sorted out-- The passcode is changed on the PC Optimum site--as well as the email. I had to call the server to get help with the email--  All of that took time-- I do not believe that I will ever use that PC Optimum card again-- once I collect the $40---it's just not worth the hassle--I do think its them ---that their security is not good--They allowed this to happen--  and my card has a different number than the card they (Whoever "they" are) used to hack into me-- Why didn't they notice that?

To change the topic, we have freezing rain falling outside--  I shovelled the bricks in front of the garage---and I won't go to town in this--the temperatures is right on freezing---

I do love Dr Seuss--so intelligent he is-----" We can steer ourselves in any direction we choose"----and we can!--I always feel, I can sit down and cry all day, or--I can accept that Himself can be difficult, but, if I keep my head on my shoulders and don't allow myself to get angry, I believe I can live with him--take care of him--- AND----  there must be a GOD in Heaven, because a Lady called from HOMECARE this AM., and wants to come out and talk to us-- see what and how they can help me-- now---  Himself, said that he doesn't need help---He just told me that!

"But I need help", I told him--and "we will see if she can help me".

"Well, I won't be there", he said. "You can talk to her"---so--as Dr Seuss says, I am steering in that Homecare's direction. He will change his mind by next week--


We all need HAPPY MOMENTS, don't we?---  I hope your week is filled with them!

  1. We do all need Happy Moments and I'm sure one came for you when you heard from Homecare. Even though Himself says he doesn't need help maybe he would enjoy talking to someone from the health field when you go out to do something yourself. It could be win for both of you. Enjoy your day and be careful with the freezing rain when you take Lopez out.

  2. Please don't go.out in the freezing rain.
    I'm glad the computer stuff is sorted out. What a mess and waste of time. I think your right....issue is on their end.
    At least you can listen to what services are available to help you and the cost. Himself is just being difficult...doesn't like or want change..
    Have a good day.. play your piano..
    Hugs

  3. I like that you are framing it “but I need help”!! AND you do…so glad that you will see what services are available….you are in a very demanding, emotional, overloaded situation!
    Your Dr. Seuss quote is one of my favorites!
    Find a few happy moments today, OK?! ❤️ Eissa7

    2. Hanging in there. One day at a time. Thanks for asking. I have an 8 year old female. She was like Lopez used to be so I kept encouraging you that he would get better. Lol She is great now! She is sad too but it helps that we have her. You know how that goes. Hope you are staying warm!:)

  5. So happy to hear that Homecare is coming to talk to you. You do need help and so does himself. Where is it he thinks he's going when they come to talk. Stand your ground and get some help . . .Lord knows you could use it.

  6. So glad a Homecare person is coming to see you. Do not forget, that Himself is really NOT the Himself he used to be, consider, his opinion is somewhat like a child’s opinion, you are the parent now. It would be the same if you were afflicted with dementia! To save himself, HE would be asking for help, he would not put up with much nonsense! Mentally you need help. This is the sickness part of the marriage vow!

  7. I advise you do not tell Himself when the Home Care Lady is coming. Let it be a surprise! Maybe he will like her looks and attitude (or something) and stay while you meet with her.
    We have just above freezing temps, too. Rain, sleet...turns to ice overnight, melts plus a bit more the next morning and repeats again that night.
    I would hope that we're having a mild winter and that spring is on the way...but it's not even the end of January yet.
    If you do need to go out...wear good boots and be careful.

    1. Yes I have cleats on my boots but the ice is still scarey---Are you feeling better?-Lynda

    2. Yes, dear. I am feeling better. Occasional cough or nose blow, but able to do things. I still seem to need a nap everyday. I guess that goes away after a while.

  8. Very exciting about the call from Home Care. At the very least, you will be able to ask about somebody to stay in the house with Himself on hair days or when you need to run errands in town. Himself SAYS he won't be there to hear it, but I'll bet he will want to be there so he can correct anything you might bring up about his dementia, acting out, wandering or cognitive decline. I don't think the doctor in him would accept that anybody can evaluate things as well as he can! Be sure to write down what you'd like to discuss so you won't miss something and remember it after the visit.

  9. Hello. I can't begin to understand what a PC Optimum card is, or how they used points off it, or how that has anything to do with your email or network provider, but sounds like your troubles are over. As far as hubby goes, why, I wouldn't even tell him home health is coming, and you have to INSIST that he be there. Tell him that anytime you are going to be gone, he HAS to have care there, or there will be no groceries, or trips out, at ALL. OR he will HAVE to go with you, wherever you go, no ifs ands or buts.

  10. I'm really glad Home Care is coming to see you. Himself thinks you don't need the help because he has no idea how he acts on his bad days. Besides you have far too much work around there for you alone. With freezing rain stay home and inside as it's too slippery. You can't afford to fall, etc.

  12. Yes, we all need happy moments. I'm so glad someone is coming out to talk with you because yes, you do need help. Even if it's just someone who comes now and then and talks with you, that can be helpful. I won't drive when the weather is bad. I'm lucky to have a husband who is a bit younger than me AND absolutely loves to drive. He'll even drive me to the gym if it's snowing too much. Take care of you! Oh, and I love Dr. Seuss too and what you posted today is perfect advice!

  13. So thankful you are going to at least talk to someone about help. You have to take care of you.....or he will be lost if you fall............
    Everyone needs to be happy ...

  14. I wonder if you have her over as a friend as far as what he knows. It seems less official that he is being cared for. Then you and her can talk business in orivate. Tell him she is coming over to pet sit. Lol Just a thought.
