ready to explode

I am so stressed out lately. Dad went back to work last week, and we had hired a PCA to take care of mom. This women named Ava or aida or something. Anyhoo she comes here and cant do have the shit she said she could. She only showed up 3 days out the week and was over an hour late 2 of the days. I’ve had to miss several classes to take care of mom

I know we don't really see much of each other or talk to each other, but if there's ever anything I can do, even come over and attempt to cook (or pick up a pizza on the way) while you study, or come do some dishes while you help your mom, or really anything, I'm willing.

If you want someone to come with you to get your car, I'll go. I've gotten pretty good at making it too awkward for other people's families to act like families and be mean or mushy or whatever. I can *cracks knuckles* be your enforcer.

At the least, I hope Don can bring you closer to sanity this weekend. Feel better, both to you and your family.

A marine, the above poster whose name I can't remember offhand, and myself. Thats three enforcers. Well taken care of in that department. I also have experience dealing with shitty family situations. You know this. I've ranted at length.

It really sucks to hear your mom is back on the downward slope again.

I'm here to warn you, my neighbor fired Ellen's PCA from hell today. If anyone named Tina from Palmer calls you or gets referred to you, DO NOT HIRE HER. At least not without talking to me first. She abandoned Ellen today. Left her alone, without bringing her to the bathroom or giving her lunch, for 3 hours because her son was sick. You do not want this woman anywhere near your mother.

If you need anything let me know. I can go grocery shopping with you, I can help you clean or we can get together soon and cook some meals in advance so your not rushing to get things done everyday. If your internet connection is secure enough, we can sign you up for online bill paying. There is a way to make this all work, I promise.

thanks guys. I appreciate it so much. I have AMAZING friends. As long as i plan, sleep little, and multitask i can usualy get everything done. pretty soon my dads jobs gonna get cut down to either 6/10s or 5/10s ( days/hrs) that will help. All we really need right is someone to take care of mom. I cant do everything she needs done., This weekend will be a huge help, don will be here, dad might have 2 days off. Everything will be taken off me for a little bit.

Hey, are you doing the MS Walk this year? If you are, let me know which one and I'll sign up too.
