Morning Festina

OK, gave myself a 9am cut off, so I have to go do some
cleaning before I go get the kids.

Hope to have the energy to see you all later.

Okay, going to do some laundry, then I'll have my mimosa's!!! LOL

JUDY

GLAD YOU MOM IS COMING ALONG.

AS FOR THE GETTING AN AID THAT'S
REALLY ABOUT GETTING LUCKY.

MOST OF THE AIDS COME THRU AGENCIES
AND THESE AGENCIES DON'T REALLY
THOROUGHLY CHECK THEM OUT.

ONE AID SAID SHE DROVE BUT HAD AN
EXPIRED LICENSE(TOO MANY TICKETS PROBABLY)
AND THEN TRIED TO GET MORE MONEY OUT OF MY
FATHER-IN-LAW. SHE'S HISTORY

THE ONES WORKING NOW DURING THE WEEK
ARE A DAUGHTER-MOTHER TEAM BUT THE AGENCY DIDN'T
KNOW THE MOTHER WAS WORKING.

THEY DID GET LUCKY WITH THE WEEKEND GIRL
WHO IS NOW GOING TO WORK MON-FRI AND
GOING ON VACATION WITH US TO TAKE CARE
OF MY FATHER-IN-LAW SO HE CAN COME.

I GUESS THE DAUGHTER AND HER MOTHER
ARE HISTORY TOO UNLESS THEY WANT THE
WEEKEND DUTY. SO THEY STILL HAVE TO
FIND AN AID FOR THE WEEKEND.

TERRY GAVE ME A NAME OF A WOMEN WHO GETS
THESE AIDS AND I ALSO CAN GET YOU THE NUMBER
FOR THE AGENCY MY WIFE USES.

IT'S NOT EASY AND YOU HAVE TO ASK THEM
PLENTY OF QUESTIONS. ALSO IT IS NOT CHEAP SO
YOU HAVE TO SET A PRICE RANGE YOU ARE WILLING
TO PAY.

LET ME KNOW.

KEEPING YOUR MOM AND EVERYONE ELSE
WHO NEEDS THEM IN MY PRAYERS

Good Morning Guys!!!

Hope everyone is doing good today....

Jim - thank you so much for all the information and yes if you can pm with the number of the agency your wife used, that would be very helpful.

My mom is starting her radiation treatments today....she is still so weak, tired and very forgetful, but these are all signs of just what happens after brain surgery...we are now getting nervous because if she is like this when it is time for her to leave the hospital, we will need an aid to take care of her.....if anyone knows of any that they have used in the past, please let me know.

Well back to work...peek in later

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GARY........



Janet have a wonderful lunch with your family...

Judy, is mom in staten island??

MY LAST NAME IS LaGreca

jeanette - me and my family grew up with the..
(now let me see if i can spell dis phonetically)..
"pe-shi-ole's" -
-they lived on my block on 32nd street between 4th and 5th ave.

...they were called dat because anthony, and even peter, (his son) and prob some family members before, were all fishermen who fished off the boats, then sold them to the public.

i was actually good friends with marie linda minafo, her sisters, and theresa, (anthony's daughter, may she RIP)

they lived both across the street from me, and down the block from me on 32nd st, in fact, marie linda just facebooked me. i can't wait to talk to her!
wow!

i didn't know u knew them - small world!

Blonde Puzzle
One day, a blonde named Sally was putting together a puzzle. She was really stumped and very frustrated, so she decided to ask her husband for help.

"It's supposed to be a tiger!" Sally cried.

"Honey," said Dan, "Put the Frosted Flakes back in the box!"


Thought we could use a laugh!!!!
