A Good Friday

Another great day, but this evening I feel wiped out. It's only 7:30 p.m. but I really want to go to bed. I am going to force myself to have a major cleaning day tomorrow. From sun up to sun down. Pray for me. I may get lost under a pile somewhere.

My mom is so ready to get out of rehab that she threatened to walk out today. The physical therapist thinks that she is ready to leave but she has to wait until she meets with her heart doctor Monday for the final okay. I am hoping for her sake that she does get to leave. Tuesday is her birthday, and then Thursday, of course, is Thanksgiving. I know she wants to be home for those occasions. I am somewhat worried about my capabilities to take care of her. She complains a lot and is super critical of me at times. But it is what it is. As long as she doesn't push me to the point of rage, I think we'll do fine.

I need to figure out what I am going to give Mom for her birthday. I'm drawing a blank. I am not good at picking out gifts. What does one need/want after a medical setback like this? She is so hard to buy for even under normal circumstances.
