weather

[Janet]

We are under a winter snowstorm watch. Monday evening a major storm is predicted for us with ice and upwards of 10 inches. Mom doesn't want to be stuck in a hospital alone so it looks like I'm going to have plenty of time on the computer...I'll be staying with her if we get the storm. Also...IF something were to happen to her....I wouldn't want her to be alone.

We have a windchill warning in effect today. It's flippin cold out there! The windchill right now is -44 degrees Celsius, and exposed skin will be frostbitten within 10 minutes. It's definitely an inside day! I kind of feel sorry for my brother, who works outside, but when he makes tons of money and buys nice things, I will just remember days like today

We're getting snow, snow, and more snow!!!! I'm not sure how much we have but it's enough that Jazzi and Reuger can't go out. I'm going to have to figure out how to let them go potty.......I guess in the garage. It's also blowing so we're going to have some good sized drifts when this is all done. Glen has one of the tractors up here by the house in case one of the kids or someone needs to go somewhere!!!

The sleet hitting the hospital window is loud!!!! Frankfort was just on the news and they said their were white-out conditions because of the sleet and that there was 3 inches of it on the ground so far.....yuk!

Colleges and Universities don't usually cancel classes around her but all of them her Laf. and Indy are.


Where in the heck is spring?

electricity has gone off 2X now, came right back on, lets hope it stays on. It's ugly out there. Hope you are staying put there at the hospital.

Lynne, where are you? I hope you are HOME and not at work!!!

[Janet]

Yes....I stayed at the hospital, but I want to go home. I've spent 2 nights in a row here and that is enough for me. I think for the first time....I'm not going to like Mom's nurse today. He is kind of a cocky SOB. All the others....male and female...have been absolutely wonderful. Still early...so I'll give him a chance.

Yes Gayle i am at home and the power is staying on, will update on the weather thread.

Janet, I'm sorry that your day is not getting off to a good start with the nurse. You DO have the right to demand a different nurse if you problems with one, same with Dr's if you have problems with them you can request (not demand, I should have put that instead of demand) a different one or that the Dr only see the patient when a family member is present if you are not comfortable with the way they are doing things. Remember they are working for you, and sometimes you have to shop around for the right one.
