Oh, I'm so happy I still have access to everyone here....I've only spent 1 day with Mom, and can see how much she has failed...Hence, I will need all my sisters here for support duing the next week.....She still can do somethings for herself, but now needs supervision when doing personal care.....it's like telling a 6 year old to go take a shower, and you just know they are standing under the shower head, with the water running, but not using the soap.....Thank goodness I have my CNA training cause that has kicked in when getting her to do something......She didn't know who I was when I got here....and was still confused this morning.....I've been my Aunt Ginny (her sister who passed away sometime ago) most of the day....but every once in awhile she'll call me by my name, so it comes and goes......but her health is good and most of the time, she is in good spirits....things kinda' go south around 3-4pm....weepy or arguementive, but we have meds. for that.....it is sad and I can see it will be trying at times.....I have the day shift with her and my brother and his family do the night shift as they live with her....so I can get away in the evenings.....I'm staying at my sister, Barb's, house, which is right next door....
On another note, our trip home to PA was uneventful....we got to the campground near Gettysburg a little after 12 noon, Friday....it was raining, we got stuck in the field accross from our site trying to back in....got the 5er un hitch from the truck....got the truck un-stucked....had to get one of the guys to come over and park the camper....needless to say, Ernie was a little upset with himself
....but all's well, that end's well....got basics set up and had a nice visit with the kids and the grandbabies....they have grown so much....and Ava just loves Grammy and Papa's "house"..... 
Amy loved her "Mother's Day" gift and just got an e-mail that it is already on the living room wall....so, I'm pleased.........And I drove myself here yesterday (borrowed the kids' extra car)....about 5 hours for the trip....so after 3 days on the road....I'm still trying to catch up with the "resting"....so it maybe an early night tonight..... 
All righty....didn't mean to write a book, but once I get going....
anyways, I hope this is making sence to everyone, if not, remember I'm going on coffee and cigs, at this point.... and just bare with me....Talk with you all later...
