How are you doing with GALing??


I'd consider everything I did for her as hers. We were a partnership, and that's what I did as part of my way of working for her, us and the business. Nothing in them would be of any value to me other than acting as an example of what I can do.

The GAL is hard, as I've got to take care of my Mother. Between that and pulling docs for the lawyer (I spent 4 hours today), that's about it. And working on my painting. I'll go for a ride tomorrow if I can.

In order to really GAL, I've got to hire somebody to sit with my Mom. She cannot be trusted for any period of time by herself. It's the same as leaving a toddler alone. She gets into things when I'm here. She's quick and quiet. I can barely get anything done here because she's always doing something. Some of these behaviors of restlessness keep you on your toes, and she'll deny doing any of it afterwards. Only unlike a kid who points at the milk on the floor and says "I didn't do it", she actually believes it. She's positive I'm doing things or people are doing things and she's not been involved.

Isn't it great to have to deal with this as well as a D? Pretty neat-o. Thank you W, perfect timing. Like I said, if it weren't for the D, I'd simply be able to hire somebody for her. Now, I have no idea until the D is over.
