Home Again, Home Again, Jiggity Jig...

I took a shuttle to the airport. It was raining when I left yesterday at 5 a.m. I can't see to drive when it is dark and raining, so that was a smart move.(though my daughter told her dad that I'm an idiot to do that...How rude!) Traffic was wall-to-wall and all lanes were full at 5 in the morning. No one wants me on the road under those conditions. Made it to the right gates, through to SLC and on to Boise. Got the rental car and aaaahh! I was on  my way home to Twin Falls. It's so nice to know the way somewhere without relying on a gps. It's heaven to drive in Idaho. So peaceful and wide open. I DO so miss that.

I had a great visit with my little mama. She was really clear and alert yesterday, but today she was foggy and not as aware. I know she's just biding her time til she can be with my dad again. I wish, for her sake, that she could just go to sleep and fade off to heaven. I know it's sort of bad to think that, but her life just isn't a happy one. She has no idea that we've moved. She thinks I was there a day or two ago when it's really been months. That's a blessing in one way, but so unfortunate in another. She can't walk any more, can't see well, can't hear well, and has dementia. It's not a pleasant life. It breaks my heart. I don't want to go there right now.

Today I did business with the taxes which just pissed me off royal, took Mom two new sweaters and chocolate marshmellow bunnies and then raced off to Boise. Dropped off the rental car, jetted to the flight and made my way home through Reno to Phoenix. Two travelers from New Hampshire visiting their parents in Sun City West hi-jacked my SuperShuttle home and got taken home before me so that I had to wait an hour longer to get home. I don't want to go there either. So provoking.

But it's good to be home. I've not had a good meal since I left home. Bagels, peanuts, and cheese crackers is all I've eaten since I left home. Oh, and Diet Coke. Lots of Diet Coke. Just way too much junk!! I crave veggies and fruit.

This is such a garbled post. Sorry. I'm tired and mal-nourished. I'm tired. Did I mention that? And then there were those darn New Hampshire hijackers...UGH!
