It's been some time since I've written an entry to this blog. Been busy and dealing with some depression. I'm in FL now, away from home, but I do have my kitties with me (though at times
they can be a bit standoffish). But my home is in New England and I hope to be back there at
some point. My house (fully furnished etc.) is there and my heart is there and many of my
friends. Yes I can make new friends, but I haven't yet and I miss the friends I had in CT. But
enough of that - it sounds more like a journal entry than a blog.
I've been dealing with 3 teens (grandchildren) close in age for about a week that feels like a
month. I am thoroughly exhausted and on top of that now that I'm home I have discovered
that I'm all out of wine (I did get one small glass and now there is none) which I could use right
now. I will have to buy some more. The dollar store down here sells wine, but not for a dollar.
I'm pretty sure that my kitties are glad to have me home, but they won't admit it. Only my orange tabby is hanging with me and showing me some affection. His loud purrs and head butts say it all.
The others were a bit standoffish at first, but they are slowly coming around. You'd think I've
been gone for a month!! It is good to be home in my own house and bed and be with my
kitties. They tolerate me unconditionally. They love to get on the bathroom sink and drink from
the faucet if I turn it on to a very slow drip. I do that sometimes. It makes them happy. Who am
I to question their needs? All I know is that as John Denver once said "Gee it's great to be back home
again."

Musings of a retired nurse, mother of one and grandmother of 3. Doing some part time work editing papers and writing stories. I Worked 34 years mostly in L&D and newborn special care, taught childbirth education classes, and worked with the VNA and did home fetal monitoring for high risk patients. I feel privileged to have shared such wonderful and private moments with so many families. I do miss the work that I did, but not the stress I experienced so often.
