Errands, Italian, Mom

[days_unfolding]

Woke up at 8 AM. People in Facebook said that it snowed last night, but it was gone when I got up. Fed myself and the girls. Studied Italian flashcards.

Oh cool. My new-to-me sweatshirt is being shipped from the Chicago area, so it should get here fast. I should have it long before I go to Mom's house.

Napped. Had lunch and snuggled with Zara. My stomach was upset so I lay back down for a while. My legs were cramping though. Couldn't sleep.

Threw myself together and went to Walmart. Got all that I needed to organize my Italian handouts. Also got syrup for my oatmeal and a pumpkin pie. They were out of diet root beer though, so I got some at Walgreens.

Ate dinner. Watched another Italian lesson and made flashcards.

The forecasters are saying snow tonight. Shit. I haven't retrieved my shovel, which I better do tomorrow. But it's supposed to rain in the early morning, so it probably will wash away the snow.

Talked to Mom. She's having spells where it's tough to breathe. They're using a diuretic to try to get all the excess fluid out. That will also help her walking. She thinks that she will be going into rehab probably around Tuesday, but they haven't told her yet. She had thought that two weeks was before Thanksgiving, but I told her no, that would be the 30th if she goes to rehab on Tuesday. So I'll be going out sometime between the Saturday after Thanksgiving and the 30th if she goes into rehab on Tuesday. I told her that it didn't make sense to make definite plans until we know when she'll be transferred.

I still have another Italian video to go, but I'm yawning, so I think that I'll go to sleep and get up early.
