This week was just as busy if not busier than last week. There were many highs and lows from the week. I'll try to cover them all in order.
Monday and Tuesdsy were a low. The project I'm working on has a huge scope and I was hoping for a break thru in information from some SMEs but only walked away with more questions than answers.
Wednesday was a high. I was able to complete some deliverables early so I can put more time on my huge project.
Thursday was a high. I got my first dose of the Pfizer vaccine.
Friday was a low and high. The low explains the picture I have for this post. My mom has been becoming more and more depressed and living a lot less. She has self confined herself to her bedroom. She's using diapers to minimize the clean ups from accidents. The low is of her not being able to make it to the restroom in time. The diaper failed her upset tummy causing a mess all over the bed and a trail into the restroom. As disgusted as I knowing I'd have to clean it up, I did it without complaint. I know she was embarrassed and that alone broke my heart. She already feels she is a heavy burden to me. Truth be told, I'm glad I am able to care for her. I complain and cry at stretching myself so thin between caring for her and my family but she's my mom and couldn't turn my back on her or move her into a facility. The hardest part of Friday was Hannah seeing her this way. I want Hannah to have happy memories of her Lola. I also hope that I'm setting and example for Hannah of how to be caring towards aging parents. How important it is to show compassion and love above all else. The high for Friday was receiving news about my bonus. Based on 2020 goals and performance I received a 10k bonus and 3.4% raise.
Saturday was a low. My brother and his wife are facing hard time in their marriage and there's no telling what this means for them. I worry for my niece and nephew the most.
Sunday has yet to be lived. I'm hoping for a high.
