Yesterday was a "junk food" Day...Today I'm paying for my folly! I Miss my potato chips! I miss salt! I miss chocolate, cake, fudge and frosting! My old friend was right..Getting old is not for the feint heart! You have to be a strong old lady to be OLD! I watch Mom with increasing wander! She is now 88..Pushing Ninety! She's lost lots of weight and is now slender as she would have loved to have been in her 40s..If she only KNEW! She needed to cut out salt! She needed to take her water pills! And I need to do the same! She is so very tiny now.It's hard to look upon. Yesterday, my brother told me her balance is getting worse! WELL! YES! It would be...She hasn't had her toe nails trimmed in 6 mo. I bet she could climb trees with those Babies! I gotta push her to make an appointment and get it done! I don't think it will help her memory a bit! It will make her back quit hurting so much. I don't know why we were born so stubborn! I know it couldn't be genetic! Maybe, she won't have to take so many pain pills for her back, when she's seen the podiatrist! That will make her memory work better! Hummm? She could become my full time job! I can't think of any better duty! | |
