An Unexpected Little Trip

Wednesday morning I got a phone call that my aunt was having a cornea transplant and wasn't doing very well and would I come over to be with her. A friend had taken her for the procedure as she has no kids and there aren't any family members nearby that would come to be with her. And, it seems that I'm the only niece that cares enough to help out. So, I packed a bag and headed over there - a 45 minute drive. She came through the surgery good, but was having some depression issues and needed someone to stay with her for the night. Neither of her sisters wanted to come down to help out, and I ended up staying two days & nights. She seems to be doing better now, but still is a bit depressed and weepy. I hope her sisters will come down a spend a couple of days with her but I don't hold my breath on it. Sometimes life can be rough.
Anyway, I'm happy to be back home again. I've so missed being here and so ready to be out of that extremely hot apartment of my aunts. My d-i-l called a bit ago and asked what I am doing tonight and I said that I'm just going to delight in being home in my own house. I'm so glad to know that we're actually suppose to get above the freezing mark tomorrow. I hope I can get outside to enjoy it.
