On a leash

Sorry for the short rant but today is one of the days I feel like I am on a leash I can’t be more than 5 feet away before the frantic paging starts trying to get the weekend started with the upkeep of catching up the laundry that includes items that have been missed placed not sure whether they have been used or not so we washing half of it was washed earlier in the week while making lunch and trying to put things in order we were fortunately able to go to our youngest grandchild‘s graduation last evening but she has no recollection of it today it’s heartbreaking as I’m sure you all know. But I am grateful that we were able to be there for our youngest grandchild’s graduation he is aware of the situation it was most grateful that his grandmother was there as well but unfortunately today is going to be the day that she pays for with confusion and needing me to be constantly available and in view thank you
