Andi is almost back in the Army (Reserves). She went up for her physical today but they have to do some kind of waiver showing she won’t get pregnant again. She can’t get pregnant because she had her tubes tied after she had Benton. So that means she’ll have to go back again to get sworn in and all that stuff as soon as the waiver comes through.
Speaking of Benton… he’s 11 months old today. It just seems like yesterday that he was born. He’s getting so big and I’m willing to bet he’ll be walking on his own any day now. He lets go and stands by himself for a few seconds or so and has even taken a step before sitting down again.
On to my mom. The nurse from Medicaid will be there to evaluate her on Friday. The nursing home we picked said they may be having an opening real soon. That’s a good thing because she’s started going downhill since her sister died on July 20th. She says it doesn’t bother her but you can tell it does. She told me that she’s the next to go. She is the last of her siblings still living. She just turned 90 in June. Her sister was 98.
Everyone will feel so much better once she gets into the nursing home. There will be people closer to her own age and maybe she’ll start perking up a bit. I know she really liked the place when we took her there for a tour.
