Hi All Peach, it just turned into Monday for me, so I'm writing to wish you a happy week. I can't sleep because my stomach is burning so bad. It was from an Italian dish heavy on acidic tomato and sausage; I was suspecting it was maybe going to be a problem. My spouse made it. But it was tasty, and at least the kids ate it. (We still have significant problems trying to get everyone to eat what is prepared, even with how old they are now.) I almost never have a burning stomach, so I'm not really sure what to do about it.
I haven't been writing much because I'm so sad about my mother's rapid decline. I've just been on a big sad kick. Grieving, I suppose. She was always saying, "That's life" - she still says that. My brother B1 gets sick of hearing her say that. He always says, "No, that's not life - that's effing Death". My mother's boyfriend is after B2 - and of course all of us - to find an assisted living place for her SOON. He thinks there could possibly be some kind of tragedy soon, if she stays at home. Her nausea (and dizziness) is very bad and she has abandoned her lifelong healthy eating; she can only tolerate sweets now. A big shame.
I need a big attitude change - but I'm not sure how to accomplish that. I've tried so many times to change my attitude through positive thinking, etc. Why is it a fight to hold a good attitude, so often? Is that "life"?

I hope your week is easy. Is it cold there yet? I saw Minneapolis got a significant winter storm by Saturday morning, the 13th, already - pretty early. Take care and lots of love, 90hazelnut
