Dear Diary Wednesday...

I am THRILLED that we have Obama for President!!!!

In other news, woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning....might have something to do with the fact that I tossed and turned all night long, came in to work with a shitful to do, didn't like driving 35mph all the way in to work due to slick roads AND just generally pissy. I need to motivate myself and get my attitude to a better place....I'm thinking some hot tea or hot soup for lunch will do the trick. Well, then again, I got to get a better attitude before lunch.

One more day this week of PT and it is looking more and more like my Mom is going to end up getting surgery regardless. She has much better range of motion but should not be in nearly as much pain as she is. I'm just being the patient daughter and making her decide what she wants to do. I have told her that if she gets it done this year, there is no way I can take time off to take care of her as I am out of PTO and so either one of the other siblings or my Dad will need to take care of her....she didn't like that answer, but that is the option. I am, unfortunately, not in a place that I can just take off from work and not get paid.

We also discussed yesterday at PT our annual Thanksgiving dinner and I think we might just be ordering from Marie Callendars or something. My Mom is hurting to much to do anything and she HATES me taking care of things and her not being able to "help". I told her I would be fine if we just skipped it this year all together, but I don't think that is going to happen.
