Allium
Our granddaughter now lives back in Indianapolis...1 1/2 hours away. So that is a big change. But one we will learn to deal with. No other choice.
Our other daughter is in the process of transferring to Indianapolis...from St. Louis, so while one daughter moved farther away, the other one is going to be a lot closer. They will live about 3 miles from each other...we have not been over yet to see their houses. Not sure when we will go. My older daughter has been moving smaller things, and the movers are bringing her furniture tomorrow.
Then there are other changes that are happening in other areas that I can't speak of on here...though sometimes I think about writing a secret blog just to have a place to put down my feelings. LOL I knew a blogger once that did that. It was open to the public, just no one knew it was her.
**********
I just spent the entire afternoon trying to help Roger find something he wanted on here, hunted and hunted for the right one, right size, right color, etc...he made decisions. All this time, I seen no place where it mentioned for merchants only. I try to place the order, and it says it has no record of me being a merchant! I kid you not, I know I spent at least 2 hours, if not three sitting here doing that....I was so stiff I could hardly get up to go put clothes over in the dryer.
So, that was an afternoon spent...which I am almost glad it would not let me make the purchase. He has now decided to wait to see things in person if it ever gets back to normal. I was so afraid he would get it and it not be what he wanted. Since his stroke, he will sometimes say he wants this or that, and I have to make the decision if I can trust what he is saying. Sometimes I get it wrong. I will get what he says, and then he will swear it is not what he wanted...
Wow, really big changes for your family! So how do you feel about all of it? I would for sure read your top secret blog!!
ReplyDeleteThat is a lovely flower. I think that I had one once by my pond, but It didn't come back. Change is something that I have learned not to fight. But it is not always comfortable. I hope that things work out for you.
ReplyDeleteThose are certainly BIG changes. I hope you will adjust to the new normal for your family. It's bad enough we have the new normal that the Covid forced on us.
ReplyDeleteSorry you spent your afternoon on a task that ended up useless. Maybe in the end it is as you say, a good thing.
It is great that your daughters will live so close to each other. At least you will be able to see them both on one visit now when this all is finished.
ReplyDeleteA secret blog sounds intriguing - only I would probably right something that isn't "politically correct" and blogger would kick me off! LOL take care and stay safe :) xx
ReplyDeleteNothing remains permanent even in normal times. We have to come to terms with the changes happening in the family and around us. With the internet, we still can easily get connected through the social media. It is not easy taking care of patients and I know it is not easy for you to care for a stroke patient. A secret blog is something like writing a personal diary where we can put our personal feelings into words.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear your one daughter and granddaughter has moved farther away. They are still close enough you can see them on weekends though can't you? It's hard enough dealing with all the covid without having other situations! I am sorry for the other changes that are disturbing for you. I will be hoping for peace and comfort for you and all your family. Take care!
ReplyDeleteChange is good some times, some times not so good.
ReplyDeleteWhat would be your secrets revealed while incognito? Inquiring minds wanna know!
Hello,
ReplyDeleteI hope these are good changes, It is sad your granddaughter will be further away, hopefully soon you can visit. The flower is pretty.
Writing your feeling down may help relieve stress from all these changes. Take care, have a happy day!
sorry for the long look, happy for the did not have it... dying to know what it was.. ha ha. curiosity bump the size of a mountain. i hope you can go visit the new homes soon after they get settled in... I know you will miss being close to Lorelie
ReplyDeleteDistance is all relative because and 1 1/2 hours away sounds pretty close to me. :)
ReplyDeletePretty flower.
Changes in the family affect everyone , whether or not we want it that or not. I also sometimes wish for a place to just spill my heart and not have others get all upset about it.

I love those purple Alliums. Yours is beautiful in this stage too. I've often wondered what we would do if our son moved far away. It could still happen and I guess we'll have to cross that bridge when we come to it. Sure hope other things in your life sorts themselves out. We are doing more ordering on line than we ever have.
ReplyDeleteI know it is hard being a longer distance from Lorelei. I hope both of your daughters are getting settled into their new homes and that it won't be long until you can visit. Mildred
