Thursday Tidings


a favorite thing
Why?
the birds all around the platter

I don't usually save wine bottles, but the face on this one made it a keeper.



A mother's love is like no other.

It is already Thursday, and I'm wondering how can that be. I keep wishing time would slow down, but maybe the problem is me and not managing my time correctly. Of course, I spend a part of every day at the nursing home with my mother. January has been a difficult month due to decisions regarding her health. Due to Alzheimer's she hasn't been able to remember that she broke her hip, underwent surgery, and needed rehab. My brother, husband, and I had to reach and accept the conclusion that the staff at the nursing home could better provide the 24-hour supervision required for her safety and care. But it's one of the toughest issues I've ever faced.
