I too have been a caregiver for my wife for 6 weeks, tired of it and then because of her knee replacement surgery I had to cancel a trip to a warm, sunny place. it is snowing outside here in eastern WA and usually I like snow, but because our trip had to be cancelled I am angry. May you find some peace, somehow, with all you are going through with your complaining mom.. She should be grateful you are caring for her!!
WOW - It is OK to be angry and LET IT OUT! I tried it and let a lot out - it helped, but need to do more.
Well said. I shared my comment and we seem to think similarily. I appreciate the ""need to quiet ourselves" I find my quite place in nature.
WE ALL have many small deaths before the final departing of our soul from our human body. They come in the form of losing a loved one, a divorce, a disease or illness that limits us in some way. However, the deaths that many people regret the most is the death of dreams or goals unfinished or not pursued. I am a 74 year old male, retired since 60 and I have more goals on my bucket list I am pursuing. I may not make them all, but I am giving them my best shot. I just had cancer surgery, the kind only men can have, but I am moving forward. I like the quote, "The good old days of tomorrow are the days you are living today." Make your " good old days" RIGHT NOW!
