Katsolo's Journal, 16 October 2022

Paper purge continues with another rainy day. Got up early, started chores off the list, and successfully completed my new network setup including all of my IoT devices. Love that they're selling "up to 25 devices" as if that's sufficient. I don't have that many things connected and I'm at 15, it goes with working from home and so many things being Wifi these days. One of the benefits is that I once again have a single mesh network that lets all my speakers work as one throughout the house - music makes me so happy.

Bought a pair of short booties as backup, I have a pair that seems like they're okay, but paranoid. I cannot deal with wearing shoes that dissolve as I walk.

Mom got a diagnosis of osteoarthritis on one side of her neck. Trying to convince her that once the inflammation goes down to please try and work with a PT. That's going to be a chore. I understand it hurts, but she's got to work with someone who can help her maintain mobility if that's what she wants. Very frustrating because when I try and talk with her, she's snappy because she's in pain. I guess pray that I'm able to find the right words to communicate effectively so that she can get the right help.

I have a couple more monster tasks to do today, hoping I can push through and leave with a clean house because I have coming home to a messy one.

Weekend frantic rules. No Halloween pics today, but this rainbow that showed up last night after the thunderstorms.

So sorry about your mom. She may be snappy because she's old and this is just one more aggravating thing to deal with; I get like that sometimes. Love the pictures, thanks for sharing.

Beautiful! I feel for you, with situation with your mom. 💗 My mother was bedridden for over 9 years, due to arthritis. She had both osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis. PT was horrible for her, when she had it. She pretty much "fired" every one of them. It's a tough situation. 🙏❤️

Something similar happened with my mother-in-law. After lots of arguing, she agreed to visit a PT, but she did it her way: she chose the closest PT to her home (we wanted to drive her to one we’d been recommended), and bought a 5-session bonus and used in one week. Afterwards, she said PT hurts and is good for nothing, and we haven't been able to move her from that position. I hope things go better with your mother.

Lovely rainbow! Hope your mom is able to get help that works for her. I know it puts you in a difficult position to help while she is in pain. Get some rest if you can!:)
