I don't want to end up like that...

Not sure having the computer upstairs is the best idea--hard to discipline myself to blog each day.  Had a difficult time visiting my mom--the first time since she moved to a retirement community.  I know everyone (just about0 says this, but I don't want to end up like that...Maybe if seems different if you're on your way down...but at this point I'd rather go before I decline that much.  She didn't make a decision when she could have, so the decision was made for her...she said she wanted to stay in her own home, but wasn't willing to let us put together services that would have enabled her to stay there.  She made it very difficult for us; I hope I make better choices.
