First off, thanks for the nudge Jason to update. I guess it has been a while since I last did it.
Almost 2 months ago, my grandmother had a T.I.A stroke, her 3rd one, which in laymans terms means she had a mini stroke. But it was enough that the doctors finally put her on insulin, given 4 times daily. The last couple of months have been very stressful for me. As her primary and only caretaker, I've had to pretty much give up on job searching to stay home and take care of her. She does have nurses that come in and take her vitals and give her a PTI and R (I think thats how you say it) test, but thats pretty much it. I've been told by many people that the TX. dept of human services will pay me to be her caretaker as it is cheaper then putting her in a nursing home but everytime I call, I can't get a hold of anyone. So nothing with that yet. I'm thinking of going up there and harassing someone cause I desperately need some income coming in.
Besides that, we've had problems with the plumbing twice. Talk about expensive!
So now you guys know why i haven't been able to update. I mean, when I do get to check LJ, its usually reading my friends updates.
I have been able to get out every once in a while. I saw "Memoirs of a Geisha" with my sister and it was pretty good. Oh and I got invited to go to a wedding in August, we'll see if that happens. lol
I also went to the 2006 Plano Dance Festival, which was awesome. It was an early birthday present by my friend, Sara.
