Dang It

Short post today.
I am sitting in the St. Augustine McDonalds sipping a diet Coke so I don't have guilt issues about using their WIFI connection.
I ain't eating their food.


I was not supposed to be back in St. Augustine so soon, but Mom had a fall yesterday morning and I came over to cook them some meals and let her rest.

She is sore, but it looks like pulled muscles, not breaks.
THAT is very good news.

My brother and sister-inlaw will be picking up most of the duties due to proximity, so I dashed over here while I was available to do my share of the helping.

To make a long story short, she is usually the caregiver for my Dad and now she needs a little care-giving so she can recover.

I'm heading back to the folks house after this post to make a Tarragon Chicken lunch for them that hopefully will last for a couple of meals, plus I am making a big pot of chili that they can feed on for multiple meals.

Last week, I left them eleven pieces of fried chicken from Publix and they got 3 meals out of it.
Sheesh.
At my house that would not make a full meal if even 2/3 of the kids were home.

I'm going to fertilize her blueberry plants while I'm here and plant the wild rain (atamasco) lilies
... And generally do whatever she needs before I hand the duties off to big brother and sis.

Thank you all for the comments on the vulture. I savored each one.

Thanks for dropping in here in 2010 and sharing your views and insight.

Have a very Happy New Years Eve!

Just be safe.

I expect to see you back here next year.
