I've been using my brother's computer while we're here in Victoria. He thinks it's a dinosaur, but frankly...compared to our desk top, it's a dang race car. OUR computer is a dinosaur. A big, slow brontosaurus. very tiny brain and all.
I have to remind myself that it's a sin to be covetous. So, I won't covet this computer... I'll just want to find a really good sale , and buy my own race car...errr....machine.
For now, it's going to have to wait. To be honest, I'm facing three weeks off of work, and that's going to bite hard into our basic budget, not to mention scuttle any thought of affording even a good price on a new computer. It will just have to wait.
Mom continues to have good days and not so good days and really bad days. Some days, it seems as if it's one step forward and two steps back...though...some progress has been made. It's just not very much progress, and some other, bad things, have been happening.
I am glad I'm getting time to spend with my mom, and wouldn't do anything different. But, I will admit that I miss my husband, my home, my garden and my pets. I even miss my job. Heck, I even miss weeding. It's getting so bad, I've even been giving the eye to some weeds in the nursing center's flower beds. They may be getting some free weeding from me yet.
The weather is beautiful here, just outside my mom's window. I wish both of us were on the other side of it.
