saturday morning
sun coming into the back room
Jill is still too sick to come to work and I'm still not going anywhere. Her usual days to come are Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday from 9 am to 5 pm and Friday night 5 pm to 10 and Saturday 9 am to 5. I miss her! And I miss time to go outside, and time to do other things than be with mom all day. This all wouldn't be so bad if this weren't hunting season - a time when Dave loves to be outside with his friends. I really don't want him to miss out on that - it only comes once a year. So I try to accept this time of being caged as well as I can. But I can't help but think how I wish this time was OVER! It will be soon - this is the last day of deer hunting so Dave will be helping more with relief after today even if Jill can't come back. Makes me wonder - should I try to hire someone else? I really, really like Jill and she is so good with mom - I doubt I can find someone I will like as much. I have been through this before and gotten people I find I don't like but then don't know how to get rid of them. Baa...
On another note - I am on a Bob Dylan listening spree - I put all my cds onto the ipod and have constant Dylan all the time right now - I think it goes well with the discontent and longing I'm feeling.

me - tried to get an angle where i don't look that old (or unhappy) - i think i succeeded
These are with a new hipstamatic lens - the Loftus. Supposed to be inspired by the photos of David Loftus and his food photos.
Think I will go outside for a bit now - mom is back in bed for her nap and this is MY TIME to do it!
