wish i were that tidy driven!! the 92 yr old lady i used to shovel for would creep out there after i had cleared her out and chip away at any minute pieces i had left behind and ALWAYS sweep after i was done! the entire purpose of me shoveling was so that she did not go outside in the freezing cold weather and break a hip and freeze to death. ugh!! i took her to the stores took her trash out and got her mail. i loved her dearly and i understand she needed her dignity and freedom, but i worried so. fortunately i was not the one who caused her to break her hip. a young lad from our congregation came by her house to rake her steep yard and startled her, she spun around and fell, yep smack hip broke. a year later and after rehab she was back at the old ponderosa and i was back shoveling for her. she was 92!!!! sadly passed away this august of a stroke, slowly. she had lived independently for the past 20years. her hubby, daughter and mother all died in less than one year back in 1991. cancer, cancer, and cancer
here is to hoping your mama keeps her word and will wait until you clear her out on saturday.
