Hard to believe it's going to be one year since you lost your sister. Being with my friend's family was the least we could have done and we spent the afternoon with them, today, too, at their request. I hope that you, too, will have a peaceful Thanksgiving, whether you spend it with friends and family or on your own with your kitty. :)Blesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-1294161863771649562022-11-23T21:41:19.935-08:002022-11-23T21:41:19.935-08:00Thank you, Bushlady.

I was glad that the eye appointment went well.<br />Yes, I needed to eat something before I went to the hospital because I had to take my morning medications, etc. I was happy I was able to take some food for my friend's family. I think A was very aware of the love surrounding her. <br />Sounds like you got plenty done, considering you've had your flu shot and are probably feeling the after effects of that, along with last week's booster and the fall prior to that!

We bought it from Best Buys on sale. Free printers are wonderful! I don't print too many things, myself, but, a working printer is helpful to have when you want to print out a confirmation of a payment or something and canning labels! :DBlesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16369267622517848850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-10865083895534925632022-11-23T19:07:54.564-08:002022-11-23T19:07:54.564-08:00Thank you, Eileen; yes, I had rescheduled the appo...Thank you, Eileen; yes, I had rescheduled the appointment to coincide with when my daughter would have been available to drive me home. :)<br />I spent this afternoon, too, with A and her family; her daughter texted me in the morning, asking if I could, because "Mom seems to be more relaxed when you are there". I took them some sandwiches for lunch and some fruits and cookies for snacks.

You did well to get something to eat before going to the hospital and it was kind of you to take food for your friend's family. How lovely that she responded for a while and I'm sure that she felt surrounded by love with everyone that was there.<br />I got the bed changed this morning and washed and hung the sheets in the basement.

What a difficult time.<br />Is this the friend you made the crochet blanket for?<br /><br /> Question - Is the printer the kind where you have to get a subscription for the ink? Or can you still buy cartridges yourself? <br /> I know that many of them are subscription based now. <br />My printer stopped working several years ago and the many at Staples were subscription based. I was lucky and a friend was getting rid of a printer so we have that one now. It's quite large for my needs but hey it was free and works fine. I don't print much but it is convenient to have. Although I have taken to printing off free vintage images from Graphic Fairy and putting them in yardsale purchased frames. I'm having fun with that :)56stepshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714155300369089630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7162428932122354536.post-16318370984268349742022-11-23T04:04:46.663-08:002022-11-23T04:04:46.663-08:00I'm glad your eye check went well and no treat...I'm glad your eye check went well and no treatment required. It's good your daughter was able to drive you.<br /><br />I'm so sorry to hear that A is at end-of-life. I'm glad you were able to spend some time with her and that she knew you were there.
