Papers, papers, papers!
I feel like I’m drowning in paperwork!
I think I’m finally (hopefully) through sorting through old papers of
Daddy’s: throwing away what is safe to
discard, organizing and filing away what needs to be kept, and sacking up what
needs to be shredded or burned. I still
haven’t finished going through the sentimental stuff and deciding what to do
with it. Baby steps!
The doctor saw the folks again this morning and had the
results of their labs. There are a few
issues that need to be addressed, but for the most part, they are doing ok…for
87-year-olds. I THINK we finally have
all of the necessary paperwork turned in for both of their mail order
prescription plans to start working.
That will save a lot of time and miles for both Toni and me! We’ve been getting calls from Brookdale when
they are about to run out of something (at least once a week, each), calling it
in, and then running to Weatherford to pick it up and take it by Brookdale.
This should save them money, too! Bobbie
goes back to her surgeon on Thursday for her post-op visit. She seems to be doing really well from the
surgery.
I’ve been sick for about 10 days. I went to the doctor last Wednesday and got
meds for bronchitis and a sinus infection. I’m finally able to sleep through
the night (thanks to some really good cough medicine!). I’m still really tired. I’m getting better, but I wear out
quickly. My cough is getting much
better, too. Those first few days, my
ribs ached liked crazy from coughing so hard and so much! I didn’t get a whole lot accomplished last
week…did what I HAD to and rested most of the time. I’m glad that I’m better this week. I have a lot more that I HAVE to do!
Tomorrow, Daddy and I meet with a couple of estate sale
planners. I’m hoping we have a signed
contract by the end of the day…and a sale date!
Then I can list the house on the market.
Even though it seems to taking forever to get everything lined out, I
think we’ve made pretty good progress in the time we’ve had. I’m just ready to get it done! We also have a few more errands to run to
take care of Daddy’s business. I’m
trying to get records and access to all of his accounts, so that I can make
sure a change of address has been turned in to each of them and take care of
whatever else needs to be done.
We heard a very good lesson from Grady yesterday morning on
determining what is important! Then we
all went to Layne and Heather’s for a potluck.
It was nice to see Heather feeling well enough to do something
again. She was pretty worn out by the
end of the day, but she DID hold up to it all!
After the second assembly, which was our monthly singing, Sheila came
home with us and spent the night. She
had a CASA class to attend this morning here in MW. Enjoyed having a little extra time with
her. It doesn’t feel like we’ve been
able to just “hang out” for a good while.
Too much going on!
The guys are still mostly working outside: working on trim and painting. Dennis did get my storage closet finished
over the weekend. Woo-hoo! It sure makes a difference in the amount of
space I have. I still don’t have it
organized just like I want it, but it is getting there.
Well, it is almost time to start working on supper. I hope y’all have been enjoying this gorgeous
spring weather! The bluebonnets are
amazing around here right now!
