I didn't leave! Well, I tried. Got 10 miles east and my car died. Literally. Guess it should...it's 11 years old. No one here wants to fix it. The dealership wants $4000 to fix it and I can't see putting that much into a car that old.
So we bought a new car today. A small compact that gets excellent gas mileage. I'm delighted. I will stay til Sunday as hubby's birthday is Saturday. Had to cancel all my plans at home. Hopefully my brother-in-law can help hubby fix my old car when he comes to visit...he's a pretty good mechanic.
Needless to say, I just went right back to cleaning. It's a never ending thing with this place. Tackled a very old chandelier with at least 50 glass prisms and it came out gorgeous!!
FIL continues to make progress. He's more alert, participating more and more in conversations. Went to the dealership with us today. Doing much better at taking his medications on time. Hubby seems to be doing better as well. He is laughing and teasing more. I've seen more of the old hubby in the last month than I have in the last 4 years. Maybe this is a good place for him to be.
So even though I've had a setback in getting home, it's been a good week.
