I am so happy that your mother didn't fall but for her to escape is scary. Feel good that she is now safe in a lock down unit. When my Dad was in a center he was constantly trying to get out. He would walk around and feel the walls looking for a door to go out of. He would do it all night and then sleep some during the day. It was so sad. I can certainly understand your feelings on this one. It is just so hard. <br />I feel so bad for sweet Jessica. With those little ones it will be hard. I broke my ankle and had to have surgery on it about 20 plus years ago; so I can sympathize with that sweet girl. <br />well Bob and I will have to work on the radishes. I love them especially with a little salt; yum!<br />Clara is just so adorable. I love that she has a hat ad gown; so cute. <br />I love the Recipe but you will have to make it for me sometime. I do need to start really cooking again. We eat so simple now days. <br />I too loved Glen Campbell songs. I feel sad about him. Thanks for sharing this one. <br />sending your way lots of hugs and love. You are such a sweet friend and I hope we see you soon.

Sorry to h...My goodness, what a busy week you had!!<br />Sorry to hear about your mom's ordeal. Getting old is NOT for sissies!!<br />I hate to admit it, but I too have stood on a toilet seat or two, just to reach the ceiling over the toilet as I painted a bathroom. Ouch!! It looks like your daughter's foot is painful, and she will be a while recovering. I just have to ask; did she get the painting done before the fall?? Of course maybe it's just me, but I would be madder about not finishing the painting, than breaking my durn foot!! Guess that's why I've been banned for life-time from climbing on ladders and toilet seats to paint ~~~~ **giggle**.<br />You are a great mama to help her out, and of course I know she loves you and appreciates it.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your recipe... the Swedish meatballs sound delish!!<br /><br />Oh, Clara... she is just precious!!!<br /><br />Hope you have a good week, and sending wishes for your daughter for a speedy recovery!<br /><br />~K.Kerinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05416650902627197826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2480650597030131765.post-11157196168602428392015-06-14T19:39:28.876-06:002015-06-14T19:39:28.876-06:00Your daughter is blessed to have you pretty close ...Your daughter is blessed to have you pretty close by.

So sad all the changes that come with age - all part of "enduring to the end." Hope your daughter's foot heals quickly. So hard to get around on an injured foot. I know - I had foot surgery when my kids were still young and that was very challenging - dad at work all day and mom trying to take care of everything while limping around in pain. Good thing our bodies heal up and things get better. Your granddaughter is so sweet. What a cute age. You have had quite a week - hopefully a peaceful and relaxing weekend is in store for you!Deb J. in Utahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14424364735834182330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2480650597030131765.post-79847859032370097612015-06-13T09:29:37.674-06:002015-06-13T09:29:37.674-06:00Oh my, Barb...you've had quite a week! Your p...Oh my, Barb...you've had quite a week! Your poor daughter...I hope she's got something to help with the pain and that she heals quickly. This is not how she wanted to start her summer, I'm sure! It's great that you live close enough to help out, I know that is a huge comfort to her. <br /> <br />I'm glad your mother has good care. It's sure hard when parents get older and suffer with dementia. My dad had it, too, and he would always ask me if he could go home with me when I <br />visited him. It was so hard to have to say no. I knew that I couldn't give him the care he needed. It is a difficult time and my heart goes out to you as you see your mother dealing with all this.<br /> <br />Oh the cuteness!! That is just the sweetest little graduate I've ever seen! I didn't even know they had graduation outfits at that age. (I'm so behind the times since I don't have grandchildren yet!)<br /><br />Thanks for sharing a song from Glenn Campbell. He was always one of my favorites and it's hard to think of him with Alzheimer's. <br /> <br />Take care and have a wonderful weekend!<br />Hugs, Cheryl Cheryl @ TFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15947085477739983984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2480650597030131765.post-61864833136321454592015-06-13T06:49:02.249-06:002015-06-13T06:49:02.249-06:00Sounds like you have sure had a busy week. Oh my...Sounds like you have sure had a busy week. Oh my....I do hope her foot heals quickly. It is very difficult when the mom of a household is down. Bless her heart! You sure have a precious graduate there. they grow so fast! My heart is with you when it comes to your mom. Your situation was the same as mine about six months ago. We had to make that same decision in order to keep my dad safe. I was so stressed back then....but now I know that we made the necessary decision that was for the best of my dad.<br />Take care Barb.....Prayers for your family.Shughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12287830519297050445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2480650597030131765.post-92227913648547475552015-06-13T01:28:05.064-06:002015-06-13T01:28:05.064-06:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14683093512047051095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2480650597030131765.post-65594381452518633322015-06-12T21:56:07.770-06:002015-06-12T21:56:07.770-06:00Hi Barb!

I do miss my blog friends...<br /><br />Hate to hear about your mother. My husband's mom has had Alzheimers for 8-10 years now. She doesn't know us anymore, doesn't talk. I hope your mom doesn't get it. And I'm so glad your mom was hurt or lost when she left the home! That's scary! And your poor daughter! That sounds like something I would do. I'll keep that in mind the next time I stand on the toilet. I don't think about nearing 60, one shouldn't be standing on toilet seats or wobbly chairs! (Who? Me?)<br /><br />You've got a lot happening at your place. I do miss my garden this year - I'll think about fall... Nah... second wedding in October. Well, next spring then... Your little Clara is so proud of herself - just look at that sweet excited smile! You take care, Barb - I'll try to not take so long before I'm back - I lose track of everyone's lives!Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07741431727993692456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2480650597030131765.post-43355586424083963212015-06-12T19:15:50.872-06:002015-06-12T19:15:50.872-06:00Holy cow lots of happenings going on around you - ...Holy cow lots of happenings going on around you - your poor mama sounds like she'll be getting some good care though - that's all we can ask for - sounds like your daughter is also receiving some good care as well!

It's always good that we can rely on family and friends when these things happen.<br /><br />I'm like you....I do not care for radishes. I can remember as a child that my mom would put a little pile of salt on the table next to her plate and dip her radishes in it.<br /><br />Clara......what a sweet smile!<br /><br />Marshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17249507310481979401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2480650597030131765.post-5509951462229728772015-06-12T16:52:11.729-06:002015-06-12T16:52:11.729-06:00Oh my!

(I have done exactly that thing. I promise I won't do it again.) Hope that she heals fast and that perhaps surgery can be avoided. So good that she has so many supportive people in her life. Hmmmm...Swedish meatballs are a favorite around here and I have never made them the old-fashioned way. Take care. Stay safe over there!
