Day 001 - Hopefully, This Is Not An Omen
Well, so far 2013 stinks. I would like to send this year back and get a refund on my life, please. I have started the new year sick. Horrible sore throat that got progressively worse throughout the day culminating into being totally clogged in time for bed and stomach cramps.
We are not amused. Not amused at all. -
Day 365 - A Year in Review - Version 5.0
Well... Here we are yet again. As the year draws to a close, I look back at what I had written at the end of 2011.
So to sum up. 2011 - I'm glad to see the back of you! Bring it on 2012!Clearly, I shouldn't have been so forceful ( Read more... ) -
Day 240 - The End and the Beginning
So we were trying again with Mom's case worker. Apparently, they can do what is called an emergency assessment which allows them to place people somewhere, on a continuing temporary basis until more permanent facilities can be found. So, that is what my friend who is helping me had tried to arrange for today.

Day 190 - Health Again
Today I read in the news paper that a well loved bike area, where kids, meaning teenagers, can go and ride their bikes and do all sorts of bikey shenanigans will be demolished to make way for a condo development ( Read more... ) -
Day 190 - Health and Foreign Aid
But what do these two things have in common, you say? Perhaps nothing. It's only that I started thinking about it today as the Weekend News Report had a looping set of news, one of which was Canada giving 227 million dollars to Afghanistan. Now the money is for good things. Like educating women ( Read more... ) -
Day 157 - That Went About As Well As I Expected
So the case worker came today. And what a waste of an hour that was. She spent the whole time talking to me. I kept trying to refer her back to my mom. IE Well, she's STANDING RIGHT THERE, WHY DON'T YOU ASK HER???? kinda thing.. but sadly no ( Read more... ) -
Day 154 - So, Tell Me How You REALLY Feel
So, today one of mom's friends came over with some money and I took the opportunity to go shopping without mom. Bought enough easily made food items to hopefully last for a couple of weeks until the next lot of money comes in. Came home and made something for mom to eat and a salad for myself and sat down with mom and the friend ( Read more... ) -
Day 152 - Well, That Seems to be That
So. Got a phone call from the notary today. The family doctor is absolutely refusing to do the letter for ma, which I'm not surprised about because he didn't want to do it in the first place. This puts a wrench in the committeeship thing if I decide to go that route because you need TWO doctors letters ( Read more... ) -
Day 131 - Well, Today was Totally Useless
First, ma and I went to the doctor. After getting all the health things out of the way, when we get down to the issue of the letter he's supposed to write, he was all is there a form to fill out ( Read more... ) -
Day 129 - My Mother is Hilarious
After a run in with the same irate neighbour that she always manages to bother when she goes wandering without me, I taped a note that said she is not to out without me to the underside of the table in front of her couch - it has a glass top. After reading the note several times and trying to take it off, which she couldn't because she couldn't ( Read more... )
