So I figured out that since I never seem to be able to finish an entry in one setting/sitting, that I'll conduct all of this "entry" business quite informally. Works better huh? So a month later and what is happening? Nothing really and at the same time, SO MUCH!! Lolz. Where do I start? Well, I'm at my job right now, so I'll start w/ that. Florence is finally back from the hospital/home after galling. It's been close to a couple months now I believe. She is in such a pitiful state, it's hard to bear & I'm not even having to be here for more than 2 1/2 hrs! I feel so bad for Ruth. Florence can't barely move or talk, much less function. I fear I won't have this income for another whole month, much less enough time to pay off my cardio exam. [I'd get this sharp shooting pain in my chest radomly & I'd been experiencing it for almost 2 years when I finally decided to do something about it by getting my heart checked out.] But it will be a burden off of Ruth's back & she will have a small relief in this system. It must be so taxing to deal w/ her mother's condition. And she's developed this draining habit of hollering & moaning & yelling like she's in pain or uncomfortable when in reality she's on enough painkillers to pass out. Ruth says she's been doing it all through the night too, like a baby. Poor, poor Ruth. God help her...
