Seems Mother has taken a few steps backwards in the past few days and again I'm not getting much sleep at night. I don't function very well without my little sleep.
Just know I love you all and I appreciate you and all of the comments you leave me. I'll be back in a few days.
Be a bunch of sweeties,
Shelia :(
I'll leave you with a little Note Song~
I'm so tired, I haven't slept a wink,
I'm so tired, My mind is on the blink.
I wonder should I get up and fix myself a drink, no, no, no.
I'm so tired, I don't know what to do,
I'm so tired, My mind is set on you.
I wonder should I call you but I know what you would do.
You say I'm putting you on,
But it's no joke,
It's doing me harm,
You know I can't sleep,
I can't stop my brain,
You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane,
You know I'd give you ev'rything I've got
For a little peace of mind.
I'm so tired I'm feeling so upset
Oooh, I'm so tired, I have another cigarette.
You say I'm putting you on, But it's no joke,
It's doing me harm,
You know I can't sleep, I can't stop my brain,
You know it's three weeks, I'm going insane,
You know I'd give you ev'rything I've got
For a little peace of mind.
I'd give you ev'rything I've got
For a little peace of mind.
I'd give you ev'rything I've got
For a little peace of mind

Shelia, take care of yourself. Is it possible for someone to help you at night so you can get some rest? Even every other night? Just an idea.
ReplyDeleteShelia please take all the time you need for yourself. We'll be here when you get back.
ReplyDeleteI hope you get lot's of rest this weekend! Michele

ReplyDeleteMy mother lived with us for a time when she was wheelchair bound and incontinent. In addition, she had Alzheimer's, and it was tough. When the doctor said she had to have 24/7 care, we placed her in a nursing home that was located close by. We visited her every single day.
ReplyDeleteAh, I know it's tough. I'll pray for you, your mother, and Mr. Precious.
Oh Sheila, I'm sorry to hear your mother has taken a few steps back.. curl up with a good book or some hand work and take care of you.. we're here when you're rested and ready to go again..
ReplyDeletehugs ~lynne~
Hope you feel better soon! Helping someone sick, can wear you out. Kathy
ReplyDeleteAwwww....hope you get some rest soon! Take care of yourself and Mom!

Oh I am sorry about your mom. You definitely need to rest when you can and don't worry about getting back to us. We will still be here.♥
ReplyDeleteOh, poor Sheila...I am sorry for your "to the bone" tiredness...and so sorry your mom isn't doing too good. Just do what you have to do and try to get more sleep, if possible. Wish I lived closer to you so I could help...

Take some time off and snooze until you feel better. We will wait for your next post!!! Sally
ReplyDeleteShelia Sweetie, you take your time and come back to us when you can, I totally understand, my prayers are with you and your precious mummy at this time.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear that your mother has had a setback. I sure do understand your need to take a blog break and get some muchly deserved rest. Take all the time you need, after all, if you don't take care of you, how can you take care of anyone else?
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Kady
Oh, you poor thing, and poor Mom!!!!! I do hope she starts getting better soon! You just take a little rest for as long as you need to. Well, a couple days anyway. I wouldn't be very happy to not see you for a week or so. Hey, tell Chloe Dawn to check in while you're resting!
ReplyDeleteJustiney :o )
Shelia, I'm so sorry you aren't feeling well. Just get some good rest and feel much better. We understand. We miss you, but we want you to feel good and Mother Precious, too. Prayers and love...
ReplyDeleteXO,
Sheila :-)
Oh, Shelia, I'm so sorry your dear Mom is not getting better as fast as we would like. Bless her heart...and yours too. Praying that she makes huge leaps forward in her recovery to make up for the steps back, and that you can get some rest and take care of yourself too. Visiting your blog is always a very bright moment in the day (or night). You bring sunshine to all of your blogging friends' lives. :-)
ReplyDeleteOh Shelia..I'm sorry about your mom! You just get some rest...we'll be right here when you get back...Debbie

ReplyDeleteSo sorry about your mom, Shelia. I will offer some prayers for her. I hope she gets better. You just take care and get as much rests as you can can and we'll just be here waiting for you....Christine
ReplyDeleteMy poor Sheila, It is so hard to be a caregiver. I took care of my mom and dad in their last days and I have never been so exhausted from it since. And I had four sisters to help. Just rest when you can and don't let yourself become ill. I know your mom is recovering from a broken bone and she will recover thank the good Lord.
ReplyDeleteI hope my prayers will lift you up my dear sweet Sheila. Do not worry about posting at all. Take a well deserved break. Guilty feelings not allowed!!!
Blessings and love...Jeanne
Feel better...

ReplyDeleteSheila I was sooo happy to hear from you! And I know just how you must feel! It's so hard taking care of a loved one and all the worrying sucks out all our energy. I hope your mom gets better soon. I'll keep you both in my prayers. You take the time you need to feel well rested. I've found chocolate bon bons make a world of difference *winks* Vanna

Dawn
A Wednesday love note to my very favorite Shelady and the whole Precious clan...
ReplyDeleteXO,
Sheila :-)
Sheila, I hope you are doing ok and got some rest. I also hope your Mom is a little better. It is very tiring caring for someone else. I know. Be kind to yourself.
ReplyDeleteShelia~
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you came by~ I was thinking about you today. I've been missing my Shelia. :) I hope ALL of you are doing well.
Hugs~ J
Honey, you're doing just what you need to be doing. Family comes first. Blogging will always be here but your mother needs you. And you need to take real good care of yourself, too.
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Lana
Hi Shelia...hope things are improving with your dear mom and that you'll be rested too...Thanks for checking out my silliness...
ReplyDeleteHugs, ;-) Bo
Dear Shelia, I hope this finds your mom doing better. I hear you about "not functioning without sleep"---I don't need 8 hrs a night, but I must have at least 5!!! I know when my mom was ill and in the hospital and I was going for nearly 2 days at a time without sleep I was a basket case. Please know I'm keeping you and your mom in my thoughts and prayers. Dana
ReplyDeletePS Give that little CD a pat on the head for me!
Oh Sweet Sheila, I hope this finds you a bit more rested. You about made me cry with your comment..it was so sweet. I appreciate you saying our side yard looks like a park.. darling it's a work in progress and requires many hours but I enjoy every bit of it. I hope this finds your mother doing a bit better.. give our Chloe Dawn a big pat from me.. hugs ~lynne~
ReplyDeleteHi friend.. Nice and interesting post.. Do visit my blog and post your comments.. Take care mate.. cool.. Cheers!!!
ReplyDeleteGod bless you dear Shelia!
ReplyDeleteSheila, thanks for swinging in to see Miss Kitty and Mr. Mouse..hope all is well your way. hugs ~lynne~
ReplyDeleteOh Shelia, You've been so wonderful to your Mom.
ReplyDeleteI hope she is doing well.
Thanks for the kindness on My Roo table. I always appreciate a visit from you.
~Melissa :)
That is a perfect picture to tell us you are tired! Get your rest!

ReplyDeleteBe a sweetie...and get your rest!!!
ReplyDeleteSweet dreams ;-D
Hey sweetie, I just entered this blog world yesterday! I am so glad that you found me! I had to get away from rms and wanted to be somewhere... I think blogging is better, but so much to learn and I am a old dog...vicky
ReplyDeleteFor some reason your blog would not let me post unless I did so anonymousy...
ReplyDeleteShelia, I'm with you, just give me the cold hard cash! I could buy a pair of shoes for what those roses cost at Valentine's Day and they would last a lot longer than one week!
ReplyDeleteI hope you and Mr. Precious manage to have a little romantic time on V.Day.
Hugs, Bridget
I have worried about you. Caring for a sick loved one is one of the hardest jobs there is. You take care of you, or you'll be useless to your mother or anyone else. We'll "see" you when you're ready to come back. You and your mother are still in my prayers. laurie
ReplyDeleteYou and your sweet mom are in my prayers. Hugs, Terrie
