Hi thieves - Happy New Year
Quick mom update - she is recovering from the pnemonia and will most likely be moved to a skill nursing facilaty today. She has been experiencing very bad sundowning (google itso I'm thinking we will most likely need to hire a sitter for her in to be there from late afternoon to bedtime. Of course the "other sisters" won't take this advice and do it - they will have to learn by mistakes (just hope they don't harm mom) hard times still with us

So pleased your mom is getting better Nan. I will Google the condition when I have more time.
Well... last night is the 1st night I have fallen asleep with out any meds. It's been a couple of months that I've had to take them - other than my regular meds. I've been on muscle relaxants and I HAD gotten down to only 1/4 of a pill, but needed it to sleep each night. It left me very sleepy the next day.
Part of my new years me project is to take better care of myself, so I've decided to start walking again and to get off the meds.
It took me along time to finally get to sleep (with the help of a very cute stuffed puppy and some music) but I made it. I hope that tonight goes just as good. I want to feel more human again.
Good going Michelle! You do sound very motivated this time too
