I'm the main care giver for my 92 yo MIL who lives with us. I spend Sunday night and Monday with my 85 yo mom who lives 90 miles from me. My Dad passed away in March so helping my mom is a given. I also tend a granddaughter that is in first grade. We have 7 children and 18 grandchildren (one more on the way). Always one or more of them is/are here to visit spend time with us or just because and they are always welcome along with neighbors and friends . We've bought a new home and are selling the one we are living in. My husband is still working so since I am the one who is "retired" all of the business stuff landed on me. I still find an hour or two to spend in my studio each day. I quilt, therefore I survive. Oh ... and snakes would have me running down the hallway screaming!
