I hope I don't get any kind of trouble blogging about my client. I won't name anything specific so gonna just risk it with that.  Tonight, my client was laying around being sleepy and I really wanted to find a way to get her to wake up and do something other than sleep.
It took about an hour for her to get up to walk her dog and then I suggested we go out to eat for dinner. She seemed very open to the idea and I named a pasta place and she agreed. My company's policy is that she pays for my meal but since I asked it just didn't feel right so I went knowing that I would pay for my own. If she had asked then I could stick to the policy but I don't want anyone thinking I was taking advantage of her. I was looking out for her best interest and that was all.
We had a nice dinner at the pasta place and went home very full. I can't afford to pay for my own but I just can't get past the feeling that clients feel that paying for a client is a royal pain in the ass. It feels more like friends if the friend can pay her/his own way. I think that is part of my issue with how I do my job as a caregiver. I want to feel more like a friend than a worker. Not that I don't work and earn my money but just feel like we enjoy each other's company compared to just being stuck with each other.

Don't know if I made a lot of sense. It's late. I should get to sleep.

I just love watching this chapel go up. But watching buildings get crused is better. Of course i am not talking about crushing a chapel. That would be naughty cause if there is a god.. Your going to go to hell for doing that. Hot stuff!!!!!

I haven't been writing too much. Just been lazy and sending pictures to my blog. Work has been keeping me pretty busy. One minute, I am happy with the hours and the clients and the next day I just wish I could go home. We been trying really hard to get out of the habit of running to the store everyday since we don't get money every day it's kind of pointless to go daily. I hate the new store now. They just seem so expensive and the store brand products are hit or miss if they are any good or not.
Today, I went to aldi after work and spent 100 in food. I didn't think that was possible there. Tonight, we are cooking a huge pizza that I got from there.

I been working more for a couple months now. It wasn't easy going back to full time hours cause it's been a really long time since I have worked a full 40 hour week. I kind of got spoiled being able to stay home half the week with Tyler and Amiah.
I do my best to be the best Mom to Tyler and the best Grandma to Amiah. Amiah always says Momma but Tad thinks she says mymy. Well, I tell her Grandma so she will say my name. It's cute. This picture was taken at the church last week when it was warm out still. I love that my little part time job allows me to bring Tyler and Amiah with me. They even accept naughty teenagers like William. haha
One of my fun moments during the day is when I get ready for work Amiah tends to hang out with me. She wants to get the same things I do to myself. I have this new cherry lotion and body spray and she wants the same thing. I only put a tiny bit on her. She brushes her hair with me and her teeth also.
I am sick right now cause I kissed on her when she was sick. So, no one can say that Amiah doesn't share. lol So, far Tyler hasn't gotten the sickness and that's good cause of his asthma.
He is in middle school now and that's seems as stressful for me that it is for him. Well, i kind of rambled and should rest cause I work tomorrow. I hope they don't ever make me work six days again. I need two days off with my family,

Work was giving away free furniture and I just happened to be the first one to call. So, I go to get it and I am asked to pee in a cup for a drug test. I just had to say ah man I shouldn't have smoked that weed!! They all laughed and I am glad cause I need to be on their good side so they remember me if I lose a client. Taking care of the elderly is a big risk because I don't have the security of a job but then who really does in this day and age.

Tonight, I went back to volunteer and my little sister couldn't come. We had eight children and three volunteers. Lots, of crying babies but I did get the one that always cries to sleep on me. 

Wearing my badge. The next comfort keeper in the family.
