dude. i'm down to 118. it's slow going though, i'll tell ya.
and my thoughts are elsewhere at the moment. my mom has done a ton of work lately toward getting my grandfather into an assisted living facility. and it looked like things were working so well, they had a place - right near the church where i work - he had agreed to it, etc. and now it turns out that they won't take him because he has dementia - according to their pre-intake test.
it's not surprising, really, to know this about him. he's been in rough mental shape for quite a while. but it's still really sad and i'm worried for him and feel sad and frustrated on behalf of my mom, who has been putting so much into this.
and rach's mom called yesterday to tell her that her brother (rach's) has lost his job. and that she's visiting her (mom's) father whose skin is so thin and fragile, it breaks when he's bathed.
getting old is terrifying.
i think it's time to pack up the computer and take a stroll by the river before heading home. ♥
