Hi minniecarousel. I've done a lot of thinking and I'm going to tell Chuck and Karen that I am just not ready to live with them permanently. I don't mind staying there for my recovery, but not permanently.
I will be perfectly able to take care of myself in a week or so. My cousin who is the same age as me, had her hips replaced and she does fine. I will ask Chuck to get me one of those life alert things to wear. But I'm just not ready to move out of my house.
Maybe in a few years I will be ready to move into a rancher in a 55 and older community near by. Even if I lived in a mother in law suite, I would not have my own kitchen. Where would I put my food? Where would I put my canned goods and spices and herbs? It just would not work for me at this time. I really dread having this conversation with them. I know how they worry about me living alone. But I just can't do it. Not yet anyway.
Thanks for the good thoughts. I will try and get back on Tuesday night or Wednesday night to let you all know how things went.
