What keeps you sane?

For me it's turned out to be church.
I realized it gives me a lot of things I've been missing.
Besides the fellowship, which is so important. Today's topic at Sunday school if finances.
HHmmm something I could use some help in.
My point is our church covers real life issues. Things that we can use and apply every day.
It amazes me how when we walk threw the doors to the church. Everything else just fades away. It has turned out to be two very stress free hours, that I look foward to every week.

It has also helped me let go of some things.
One being my myspace. In case anyone noticed it missing. I deleted it.
It was really just a sorce of stress. Don't ask me why, it just was.
Two, I feel calmer inside. My worry level over my kids has dropped.
In fact my worry level over a lot of things has dropped.

Stuck in the middle with you

My mom went and had hip replacement surgery. Which puts her pretty much in recovery mode for the next several months. Right now she can't even be left alone.
Her SO's daughter is an RN and came to stay to help out.
Only her father ended up in the hospital with Ecoli bacteria in his blood stream the day after my moms surgery.
So I've been making a daily trek to my moms so Carole can go see her father.
He should be coming home today with a pic line so he can get his meds.
I now know what people are talking about when they say they are trapped between their kids and their parents being the care giver. Lucky for me 2 of mine are adults and the youngest is 16.
Although she has had some where she has had to be dropped of at or picked up from almost every day since this has been going on.
I think I have developed a permanent headache.

Wash with like colors

In cold water, no bleach.
The shirt is white, with Red, blue and pink lettering on it.
So do I have to find other pieces of clothing that are white, red, blue and pink?
Can I just find some thing that is white, some thing red, some thing blue and some thing pink?

Lets face the ugly truth here.
First the shirt is mostly white so every fiber of my being wants to toss it in hot water and bleach with the rest of the white cloths.
I can't do that.
Because the shirt is mostly white if I toss it in with the colors, even in cold. It' s not going to white for to long.
So the fact is. The assholes that made this shirt. Also made the 4th pile of laundry.
Whites
Darks
Lights
This shirt
