Good Morning Kids! It's barely 10 am, and already hot here.
I did a bunch of paperwork yesterday, and today I need to catch up on my filing.

Good Morning Kids! We'd better duck if ken a.k.a OMK didn't get any caffeine this morning. Believe it or not, I'm job hunting. I'd planned to anyway, once my leg healed up, but just got the insurance company statement yesterday on what they will and won't be paying on my surgery. Not good. I even used their "approved" surgeon & hospital, and I'm still getting scr#wed.

My wife bought a new coffee pot. When did they get so expensive? This one was $150 and she passed on one at $220. I used to fix them. Most common part to go bad, when they don't heat up, costs about $2.

Morning all. ken a.k.a OMK That must be a fancy coffee pot. I hope my coffee pot does not break anytime soon. At that price I would have to wait a few weeks to replace my coffee pot. My DF usually hides from me until I have my coffee. Rain in forecast. Time to get moving for the day.

Wow, ken a.k.a OMK, it must be a nice one. Do you drink specialty coffees, or use the pods? Good Morning Kids! Even in the heat, we normally shut off the air conditioning overnight, but DH turned it on very early this morning, as you could just feel the humidity getting worse.

Good morning everyone. Another humid day. To answer the coffee maker questions..I couldn't make coffee this morning because I didn't read the manual yesterday. It makes both 12 cup or single cup (using a wire basket with your own grounds). She had 2 and I had 1 cup. She quickly threw away the old $30 maker so I couldn't fix it.

Found out today that Mom will be getting a double hip transplant. They will do one hip and then three months later do the other hip. As soon as her other doctors approve it they will schedule her. She anticipates it will be soon since the one doctor referred her to the orthopedist saying she needed a hip transplant. When she was in to her heart doctor for a checkup and mentioned it to him they went ahead and did the EKG etc that she will need for surgery so now they just have to give some official okie dokie and she will be scheduled.

Wife was gone early so I made myself coffee. It's easy. Also takes the K cups, but we are using our grounds in a wire basket. Humid and hot. Everyone enjoy their day.

Good Morning Kids! I'll be off shortly to go out for lunch with my neighbor.
I could use the break. I've been dealing with hospice for my relative, which is definitely in the "not fun" category, especially dealing with it all from far away.

Hello my fun Friday peeples! Just checking in while my PJs are in the dryer. I did some yard work after dinner tonight, mostly a bit of weeding -- I did a ton last week, so I am just trying to keep up at this point.
The state senior games schedule came out and I have no clue how I am going to do this. Cycling on a Friday and Sunday, 5K race Saturday and swimming Saturday and Sunday. And all at different venues. I don't think even my car drives fast enough to cover all that ground. Looks like I will have to pick and choose my events to cover as much ground as possible.

I totally misread this, which proves that I should not read posts at night. I read it as: "The other day my wife asked me to hand her her lipstick. Well, I accidentally passed a gluestick. She still isn't talking to me...." And then I wondered to myself: "Wouldn't that thing get stuck on the way out?"
Then I re-read the post. Oh, freaking duh.

Will that mean some time in a rehab facility? They told her if she had someone living with her she would be able to come home the next day but since she doesn't it will mean 3 weeks in the rehab place. She told me nursing home but I believe they will be doing rehab. They will also keep her in the hospital for 3 days so she meets the Medicare requirement to get the rehab stay paid for. Given the fact that she doesn't have a bedroom or bathroom on the main floor (She of course didn't mention that last little fact to the doctor) I don't think it is a bad thing for her to spend some time in rehab.

I didn't see how she could stay with you and you work while she recuperates. Around here, rehab is done at a nursing home, for the most part. Since they are doing rehab, it's a separated from the regular beds and, of course, they do have rehab to get them ready to go home.
Good luck.

Good Morning Kids! We finally made it to Saturday. What a week! DS had a seizure late yesterday, and I got 3 phone calls from different people who work for the hospice company that is assisting my relative. I did got out for lunch. Both my friend and I had bad weeks, even before DS had a bad night, but we joked that if we started drinking margaritas, we weren't sure when we'd stop, so we didn't.

Sharon, I'd definitely have the nursing home do the rehab. That's what they do around here, and at least you know she'd be more likely to do the required exercises, than if she went straight home, or to your place. Warn her if she doesn't do her exercises, she's less likely to recover fully, so she's gotta do 'em.
