Turns out the Maw In Law has had oxygen problems due to her ongoing pneumonia problems. The hospital finally got her straightened out and on the mend. Last night she went home finally. She's still having mental issues and will be seen by an Alzheimer's doctor in a few days.
My poor husband is still down there in Louisiana with her. He and his brother have clashed over her care, family money and a host of things. My new sister in law accused my husband of 'teasing' and 'tormenting' my Maw In Law. It's just not good at all. Makes me so very thankful that I stayed behind to start my new job.
My mother and I have had another in a long series of falling outs. This one was particularly stupid. I've decided to just let her be for awhile. There's no sense in trying to talk to her because it's just agitating her even more.
Now, for some good news. Pedro came home. I opened the door a few days after he disappeared, after 3 nights of snow flurries, ice and low temps and in he strolled. He was still rather fat and sassy, acting like nothing had ever happened and this was a normal thing, his 'Who me??' performance. He makes me laugh.
Work is going well. I feel like I'm finally catching on and doing much better. Met a few graying hairs like myself working there so I no longer feel like the Wreck of the Hesperus in a field of teenyboppers any longer.
Things could always be worse I suppose. I am enjoying being home with just my son Andy. The two of us have always gotten along very well when left behind.
