Musings of a Cranky Caregiver: There's Unpacking to Do!
http://musingsofacrankycaregiver.blogspot.com/2012/07/theres-unpacking-to-do.html
Musings of a Cranky Caregiver. A Blog About the Random Stuff that Floats Through My Brain. Sunday, July 1, 2012. There's Unpacking to Do! The main room (LR/DR/Kitchen combo) from our new condo looked at it from 2 different perspectives. You can't tell much about it except we've got lots of windows and lots of boxes. The move went very smoothly. It was beastly hot, but we had no rain, which is key for a successful move. And what the hell are we going to call the main room? July 2, 2012 at 1:28 AM. Main ro...

Musings of a Cranky Caregiver: "Just Us Chickens"
http://musingsofacrankycaregiver.blogspot.com/2012/11/just-us-chickens.html
Musings of a Cranky Caregiver. A Blog About the Random Stuff that Floats Through My Brain. Thursday, November 29, 2012. I wouldn't want to go more than one day in a row without assistance, but for that one, it's a real pleasure. Nine out of 10 Mondays are "just us chickens" days. Almost always, it's a peaceful and loving day, where we're both in excellent moods and spend our time together quite companionably. For some reason, even with the extra work, I rarely get angry on Mondays. November 30, 2012 at 9...

Musings of a Cranky Caregiver. A Blog About the Random Stuff that Floats Through My Brain. Tuesday, July 30, 2013. They Say It's Your Birthday. I'm sitting here in our hotel room in Atlantic City. It's my birthday. A great day with my Skip is planned. Gonna gamble, eat and wander the boardwalk . woo hoo! Last night's bedtime was a breeze. At home, ever since Skip had to start using a hospital bed with special mattress to help avoid pressure sores, we haven't slept in the same bed. Bah! Zoom - I kept thin...

Musings of a Cranky Caregiver: Where Do I Begin?

Musings of a Cranky Caregiver. A Blog About the Random Stuff that Floats Through My Brain. Tuesday, October 23, 2012. Where Do I Begin? Yes, it's been a long time since posting here. Almost 3 months. Lots of stuff to catch up on . Within a mile of our home, there are over 40 restaurants! Trader Joe's, CVS, Starbucks, the dry cleaners and jillions of other stores are all a hop skip and jump from here. There are cultural things to take advantage of in the city as well - museums, theaters and such. ...Throu...

Musings of a Cranky Caregiver: To Do Lists and Calendars
http://musingsofacrankycaregiver.blogspot.com/2013/08/to-do-lists-and-calendars.html
Musings of a Cranky Caregiver. A Blog About the Random Stuff that Floats Through My Brain. Wednesday, August 7, 2013. To Do Lists and Calendars. To do lists were a standard part of my day when I had a career. They were a good news/bad news kind of document. On the one hand, I would feel good when I got to cross things off and on the other, there were always a few tasks that I was putting off that would show up day after day, mocking me. Ive always been a list maker, and I know the feelings you have about...

Musings of a Cranky Caregiver. A Blog About the Random Stuff that Floats Through My Brain. Sunday, November 25, 2012. Fun, But a Lot of Work. The title, in a nutshell, describes Thanksgiving day (and the day after, when the cleanup was completed). Labels: Parties and Holidays. So glad everything went well, Cranky. Ever find your camera? November 25, 2012 at 1:51 PM. Thanks, Muff. Found the camera, will post pics tomorrow. November 25, 2012 at 2:59 PM. November 25, 2012 at 10:24 PM. Light - too right!

Musings of a Cranky Caregiver: Surehands Installation
http://musingsofacrankycaregiver.blogspot.com/2012/07/surehands-installation.html
Musings of a Cranky Caregiver. A Blog About the Random Stuff that Floats Through My Brain. Tuesday, July 17, 2012. My very first Caregiver Aids post was about the Surehands lift we had installed in our old home. It served us very well and proved a safe and convenient transfer method for the last 4 or 5 years. When we moved to our new home, I knew we'd want to get a new one installed as quickly as possible. Well, the whole thing took a long time - 9 hours! Here's a photo of a sling in action from the Sure...

Musings of a Cranky Caregiver. A Blog About the Random Stuff that Floats Through My Brain. Saturday, June 30, 2012. In the morning, my brother, BW and 2 other strong guys are arriving at 9. Bro and BW are coming in a 24' UHaul truck. They're going to load up almost everything in the house, except for things we need to live here for 2 more days. After we load up, it's off to Worcester for the unloading and initial setup. Let the moving begin! Best o luck for a smooth, trouble-free move. How fast the time ...

Musings of a Cranky Caregiver: Change
http://musingsofacrankycaregiver.blogspot.com/2013/08/change.html
Musings of a Cranky Caregiver. A Blog About the Random Stuff that Floats Through My Brain. Friday, August 16, 2013. Change is hard. At least, that's what Skip says. And she's right, it is hard. I need something to push me to make a change, otherwise I'll maintain the status quo. I'm looking forward to feeling stronger and having my clothes start to get looser . With age comes wisdom! Did you ever check out the WW slow cooker recipes? Some are really good! August 16, 2013 at 11:23 AM. Yeah - the knees can...

Musings of a Cranky Caregiver. A Blog About the Random Stuff that Floats Through My Brain. Tuesday, November 27, 2012. Pics of the Place. Found my camera and took some pics of our condo the other day. I've omitted the 2 bedrooms. One is still filled with junk in boxes that I am slowly but surely selling off. The other had unmade beds in it. The aforementioned wardrobe. This is where we store Skip's chair when she's in bed. Turning back down the hallway, you can see our main room. The features that they r...
