Yesterday I had a phone call from my cousin Kathy telling me that she had a friend who desperately needed someone to sit with her Mother tomorrow. I was so happy because I had the day off ( now today ). The lady I'm watching just had surgery and mostly needs bathroom help. She wears Depends and doesn't make it in time. I am to help fix her meals too. I am getting paid more that what I make at my regular job and will be working for 10 hrs. I should get around $150. I know sometimes people throw in a bonus too! The house isn't too far from me either. I also offered respite services for her Father because he has Alzheimer's. I think she was grateful she found me.
The weather has been bone chilling cold. I hate it when it is this cold. Everything freezes and makes life difficult. Luckily I can afford heat and the house is nice and warm. Thank God, he has certainly held me up since I left my ex. I've been praying for a good husband too. Will everyone join me in praying for that with me? Maybe I need to combine forces. I don't want to walk through life alone all the time.
Miss Daisy has been recovering nicely and growing like a weed. She is into everything and likes to play. Sometimes she uses her teeth and needs to be scolded. She has a fetish for socks and shoes and likes to hide them. Not fun in the morning when trying to get to work/school whatever. So I am going to wrap this up. I tried writing this entry last night, but Brownie sat on the keyboard and did something to hopelessly mess it up. Bad Brownie!
thanks for the tag Donna!

I am glad that you will get the chance to help someone out that needs help plus you will be helping yourself out in the meantime. I am certainly joining you in prayers that God will send you a good husband. Someone that you will love and that he will love you and your children and pets and will be a good helpmate and provider for you and your family and that you will have a happy home. (((hugs))) Helen

Wow..that one day was a great deal.
Good carergivers are so much in demand.
I'm sure the woman was happy to have you look after her mother.
Have a good day!

Sounds like a great job and great pay for the day! I am just glad you were smart enough to get away from the ex...at times I am sure it can be lonely...but its still got to be better than him for sure.
