Jun. 16th, 2024 11:11 amMy weekend started by accidentally interrupting a suicide attempt. How is yours going?
Other than that Mrs Lincoln, the play went pretty well. Lawyer got paperwork. Government got paperwork. Tree is now in - I found an arborist who was willing to show up on short notice and drag 12 feet of forest through my living room. So I got to cross that off the list.
I was supposed to tour an LTC on Friday and I was just putting my boots on to leave when I got a call from the care coordinator - Old Man has a placement. It's in one of the places I had reached out to because they have all the services he needs and my sister has been in the rooms and said the facilities are comfortable and clean. The only downside is that it's out in the middle of nowhere so it will be a bit of a pain to get to.
He moves on Wednesday, so I've booked a WheelTrans to take him. I'm going over on Tuesday to pack a bag with his clothes and meds and I'll sort out the rest once I see how big his room is. This is a huge relief, they have 24-hour care and he is much less likely to end up back in the hospital. He was pretty much sold on the move as soon as I told him he'd be getting regular physio. They also take him to medical appointments, so that will literally take a part-time job off my hands. Halle-fucking-lujah a change that does not actually give me yet more work to do.
Housemate packing plans got postponed, because of course they did. But on the plus side their partner picked them up for the weekend so they took a trunkload of boxes with them. And discovered/threw out another cat pee box in the process, so now the main floor is back down to it's base level of funk.
( checklists )
Fingers crossed.
[Edited to Add] Local massage clinic just sent me an email with upcoming availability. That sounds like a fine plan once I get through this mess because wow, could I use it.
