Nov. 29th, 2022 08:28 pmEvery time I tried to do anything the phone rang. Every time I tried to go to the bathroom the phone rang.
I had 27 calls today...all about Dad I cant catch my breath.
I am on the verge of a nervous breakdown... I started screaming at the computer.
I am on my last straw.
Dad, on the other hand, seems to be doing well. He called me 8 times today because he is bored. He ate all the meals I brought over Sunday. There should have been enough
The groceries I ordered went to the wrong house. All they could do is refund my card. They would not resend the order. I would have had to reorder again and receive another day.
I have 8 more days until the oil tank comes in. I have the heat turned off. I need to save the oil for when Dad comes home.
I get status reports on Dad and they are saying he should be able to come home in a few days...a couple days..but wont tell me when that is. If it is Friday then all the time I have spent on doing stuff for the craft show has been a waste. I cant have anyone else there at discharge... even then I am not sure how I can go through discharge if I cant be there. Do they just push him out on the sidewalk? If they wait until Saturday the 10 days will be up and I can go in...and I can get him clothes... and i can do my craft show... sigh.
Work also has me at my wits end. It is crisis time in work and I cant work a crisis and be in crisis at home. I had no business working Friday as I was and emotional wreck all day...but no one was there to cover for me at all. I need to have a conversation with the boss about how unsustainable this is right now. I also need to go in and getter FLMA paperwork started I thought I could go in Thursday or Friday but I dont know when I will be called to get Dad.

Date: 2022-12-02 07:25 am (UTC)I didn't get that many calls when dad was in the hospital, but they all came when I was trying to sleep during the day. I feel your pain. I was so tempted to turn off my "smart" phone and unplug the house phone.
But of course I couldn't because I was the contact person. :o
Nice of you to buy groceries for somebody else. :)
Thank goodness they refunded your card. :o
I haven't turned the heat on since dad went into the hospital. Most of the time I'm not home at night. Well, actually I was with the dang covid. lol... But I spent most of my time other then sleeping in the basement and it doesn't get that cold down there and I dress warm for bed and Maggie has her fur coat. LOL......
Hasn't your dad been in the hospital longer then 5 days? If he's not symptomatic he shouldn't need to be in isolation. Or maybe it's 10 days.
There are way too many different regulations now. The CDC should do their dang jobs and set up a national protocol. :o
Praying you can go to the craft show. ♥
HUGS, Jon
