What's the matter, YoYo?

What's the matter, YoYo?

It's been a difficult week for me, I was overwhelmed, and I guess I needed a good cry last night to let it all out. I couldn't sleep, with crying, so I watched my normal shows and was even up to watch an episode of Cheers (which I normally don't watch- just The Golden Girls- if I'm still awake).

It's not just all the car problems- that's nothing, cars can be fixed. The car problems just led me to be aware of a possible memory problem (not only that I cannot remember what words to use when I speak, but now I see that I may have a valid concern about my memory difficulties). My son has noticed that I repeat some of my questions to him- I just don't remember asking him (like- what do you want to eat). He tells me that we already discussed this. But the car thingy, where I didn't remember when the inspection was due and mixing it all up with the other car I had, made me worry more. But there's more. I had said that my son gave me the car last year, but it was really 2012 that I got the car. I had my mechanic check the records because I thought he made a mistake and just didn't put the sticker on (and the sticker did say NYS inspection and not NJ- where my son bought the car). I even checked the title, to be sure. When I type into the computer, I notice that my spelling is getting bad- I proofread and for ex., "that" comes out "taht" or "as" will come out "sa". It's not really the spelling- I actually have all the letters , but they are in the wrong place! My brain is not working the way it should. It's really scary because my brain is not computing to my hands anymore. I now question myself a lot ( and proofread more).

My older son had call me on Mother's Day and we spoke for 4 hours. Originally I moved from Pa. to Upstate NY because my son said he would be moving to NYS and would be building a house on his land (my mother's land, that is his now). I would be close to him as I aged and he thought that would be a good thing for me to be near him.

He was suppose to move here 3 years ago, but has not done so for various money/business reasons. I really didn't like living here when I lived here with my mother @ 16- 19 years- with all the snow/cold and bad memories of the people here when I attended school- just didn't like it. I never would have moved here if it wasn't for my older son- I would have stayed in Pa.

Well now he is saying that maybe he won't be living up here. He's thinking of when he gets older- how hard living here can be when you are old- and he was thinking of other alternatives- Arizona or Tennessee (he has friends in these places). I told him it's too hot in Arizona for me and too humid in Tenn.- I can't breathe in the heat as I have COPD and I don't like the desert. I need some "green" and who knows what kind of bugs they have. :scared: :floorlaugh: He said there are places in Arizona that are not so hot (he spoke about the town of Page- northern Arizona?). He would like me to move with them. My younger son won't move to Arizona or Tennessee, as he has family in NYC and doesn't want to be so far from them. Who knows what the future holds for him as he is still in school and is only 23. He said he plans to stay with me unless something comes up- like difficulties finding a job in this area, etc. after he gets his MSW in 2 years.

My older son will be coming up here on/about June 19- after the cruise he's going on (he really needs that as this past winter was so hectic for the business)- so we can all sit down and discuss this to see what is best for all of us. He said we are a small family and need to work this out together, so there is a common solution.

I don't want to hinder my children's lives. I love them so, but right now I'm a little angry (I don't like being angry). I know that life brings some little arrows that sting and I need to get my head together so it's in the right place again.

All this and the JS trial this week, such an emotional trial and my 1st. insanity trial, became a little too much and I let my emotions spill. Sometimes this happens. I just need to gain control again and I will- I know me well. Get it together.

Listening to JS's allocation last night was so unbearable for me- I'm a very empathic person and can put myself in someone's place (which can make my life hard sometimes). She really is a very sick person and needs a lot of help. I could hear that "insanity" in what/how she spoke. God, I hope she can get all the help she needs in prison. I think she may even commit suicide if she is not watched carefully. But this trial was not a big problem in my life, but I found myself not "liking" some of the posters on the thread. It wasn't what they said, but how they said it.

This was not a "normal" week for me. I didn't visit the convent and could't sit in the quiet of the chapel to clear my head or speak to my sisters in Christ- they soothe me so. I need that to ground me and make me think/know what's important in life. They/this have been a big part of my life the past 3 years.

It will all get better, I know- things always do. I will pick up my car today and in July, when my Medicare kicks in, I will make a visit to my MD. My son will come and we will come to a common solution for all of us. In the meantime- I pray.

Thanks for asking and for your concern. I appreciate it. :blowkiss: (you know, miss daisy, that you shouldn't ask me questions because the answers are always a book :floorlaugh::floorlaugh

It appears JS is getting the medical treatment she needs in jail and I'm sure this will continue in prison. She certainly is mentally ill and will never be on her own again but in a positive way her meds will always be monitored. If she has a meltdown they will certainly transfer her to an institutional area where she can get proper care but once she is stable instead of going home she will be going back to prison.

Not sure how someone could ever live with the realization of what she has done. At least PS can go on with his life never having to look over his shoulder and worry that JS is out and a threat to any future family members he may have. jmo

I like David Bowie.


David Bowie - Fame (2002 Live) - YouTube

Oh I love David...always have. DH loves DB even more than I; all his early work; well any work. I found out Hr Giger died on Monday and was so shocked so sad to hear it and realize that we will outlive most of our greatest artist of our time...in our lifetime. Like Phillip Seymour Hoffman; to Not hear his voice again? There just are no words, for some stars that blink out too soon. I hope David continues to write! I recently read he spends most his time with his daughter just being a Dad and I'm so glad he has that parental love and knows the love of a child!

I So Wish We could See the argument from CNN today!! I really do! I think that giving the candy bowl *ie the whole trial* and then yanking it away; is something that shouldn't be done no matter the cause, or well..on principle alone. She has to allow cameras. The only reason not to; is so that JA no longer has a world wide viewing audience....and that might be a good thing in the long run even tho i will hate it....I hope cnn wins.

Is today's hearing televised/streaming? Thanks

 

[zoey]

Y/N. I will keep you in my prayers. I hate hearing memory loss--but on the plus side you acknowledge it. That will help when you meet with doctor.

God bless you-- loved reading about you going to the convent and hanging with your sisters in Christ :loveyou:

Making a guess of no

Y/N,
There are all types of climate available in Arizona!
http://www.arizonahighways.com/
This is the best magazine for really seeing what Arizona has to offer. Page is in the Northern edge of Arizona and Utah and the weather is really pleasant.

There are many people who move here for health reasons and have found relief in the different climates. Even some of us born "desert rats" relocate from the heat of Phoenix for cooler altitudes!

If you do end up in Arizona, you'll be fine. Just don't judge the State by my posts. I live in the boonies and love having neighbors at a distance, State Land Trust nearby, the wildlife, and just the opportunity to do what I want. I was born into it, and when the city of Scottsdale grew, and crowded out those things, I moved.

No matter where you end up, you'll be fine! Don't anic: just take it one step at a time!

 

[daisymae]

Well, I applied to Medicaid because I am eligible and heard back from them yesterday. Wow! I have been informed I have been accepted into the family planning and will be covered for birth control, prescriptions and everything related to planning a family ... at my age of 63! :floorlaugh:

And I was so worried about having a baby and affording it.
