Updated list. I am returning proud of myself. But wow, my house is really bad mess right now. Really bad. Maybe the worst it has been since I was in the deeper depression in February.

TwinkleToes My DMom had 4 falls in May. The 2nd two were really bad... Both landed her in the hospital...fractured ribs and lump on back of her head. I was actually at her house when she had the first really bad fall... I had been visiting for Mother's Day and the day we were leaving... Tuesday morning, she had a big fall in her bedroom. I was just outside her room in the hallway. My youngest brother came over & took her to the ER (I went with them). She was in the hospital a few days & then straight into a Rehab Hospital. The 4th fall was even worse. She fell on the hard Entry Hall floor at 2:30 in the morning. Orbital fracture, stitches above her eye, 2 nasal fractures & stitches on her lip. She fell really hard flat out on her face. Paramedics came & rushed her to the ER. I came in town a couple days later while she was still in the hospital. Then, she was moved into a Nursing Home for Rehab.
Ever since she was first in the hospital, my Dad required round-the-clock care as he has Alzheimers, and so does my Mother. Up until these falls, my Dmom had been my Dad's caregiver at night -- but we had been back & forth for the last year ---- is it time to get someone at night or can Mom handle it???
After Rehab in the Nursing Home, my DH and I moved them, here, to Texas. (They were in TN). Both my parents are now in Memory Care about 25 minutes away from where my DH and I live.

TwinkleToes hope you have a nice trip. I think I must’ve missed that you are leaving. Weighed: 155.8 lbs yay! Looked online to see if moms LTC ins co showed receipt of invoice that was faxed on the 17th. Nope not showing up. Called LTC - yes they got it. Allow 10 work days processing time from receipt. Yikes! Decided to submit an invoice from The Cottages. Noticed some invoices not quite right. Grrr. Decided to submit one online Whelp it doesn’t show it as approved facility. Ghah. It is approved!!! Called LTC again. Takes a few days to see online. Yes approved on aug 28th. Really?! A few days!? More like a few weeks!!! Ghah!!! Also”portal is not working today so that could be why not seeing it online” really! Yeah, right. Decided to find out faster fax or thru portals. Never got a straight answer. My plan in future. — do both!!! I’m hoping they don’t reject this invoice cause it was for only 11 days in June. I wrote it on, so they may have problem with it. They may require the Cottages to send another one. Also, incintinence fee is split out. That could be a problem. Ghah!! This is NOT fun! DH & I had a tiff due to me being very late to work due to my staying home to work onthis He’s right of course, but I reacted poorly. Yelling st him. Ghah!! I’m definitely wrong here. But suddenly didn’t feel the support & felt like a failure. No excuse. DZh deserves much better than that!!! I’m at work on lunchbreak, but time to get back to work. After work, went to Kroger’s & picked up 3 RX refills for parents Many texts & phone calls re: note left on door of parents old home by a sheriff or police. Could see on video of earlier today Neighbor went to get it for us & sent my youngest bro a copy. It was an official notice but wrong name. Does this have to do with my Dad’s identity theft that we just found out about? Letting DSil & bros handle this. DH & I have our hands full here with my parents. So they sent copy to attorney friend. Youngest Bro called & altho it was previously thought to be a scam, found out it was real. But the official said that it doesn’t make sense to him either. So attorney friend of my oldest Brothers son will be looking into this. I asked youngest bro to call back & ask for s police report to be made, but he said something about doing it tomorrow. And the neighbor stuck it back on the door. I said that is great advertisement for no one being home & needs to be removed. Youngest Bro said he’ll do it tomorrow. DH is convinced it has to do with dad’s identity theft. DH is stressing me out. The way he talks & is accusing my family of taking this too lightly, etc (can I scream now?!) Took meds to The Cottages. Visited parents Todos: Let youngest bro know what clothes to pick up from parents old home for him to bring with him when he comes here. Drink at least 4 glasses of water Diet successfully Take all meds Scan identity theft mail Send to bros. In email Scan invoices from Cottages Fax invoices Upload them in portal Monday: Schedule appointment dad dermatologist re: carcinoma Monday: request moms dr re: sleep aid Request time off from work to take parents for follow up appointment re: allergies Laundry Parents bills Schedule appointment for mom hair cut & color Exercise Grocery store Plan meals Empty all trash Dishes Make groc list Plan something fun with DH Go see DS’s house that’s being built Visit DD & my new grandbaby Change linens my bed Go thru more papers & get organized put calendar together Empty area under one of the sinks in back bathroom so DH can fix faucet Get air in tires Plan upcoming holidays Get sleep Plan something nice for myself Make deposit parents bank Ask other bank pay to question or research on line Schedule more todos for after this week: see previous posts for reminder info Cd[
