I have been on the go full force for the past 3 days. Today has felt slower but I think it is because we are at the house. My living room looks disgusting. I have half chewed granola bar smashed into the carpet. (only been there 30 mins or less) I have 2 baskets of clean clothes either half in the baskets or in the floor. (This is what I get for talking on the phone and leaving A alone) My dishes are piling up. We have literally only been her long enough to cook, eat, and sleep.
I have tried helping my mom get things organized and straitened up before she has surgery tomorrow. We have been to the hospital 3 times and still are not sure if she is approved for the surgery. She just moved about two weeks ago. Up until today she was living out of boxes. Thank goodness we got her unpacked.
I just need to take a break and breathe. Now I am off to try and get a sticky granola bar out of the carpet.

Re: I want the room to slow down!
Hopefully things calm down for you. Take comfort in the fact that although you have a messy house, you're being a great daughter to your mom at a time when she really needs you.
GL!
