Mom's fall from the couch was because she was in the dark, couldn't see what she was doing, and missed the chair. She told me that she now keeps a flashlight with her so she can see when she is moving. No falls since.
Mom and Dad have decided to sell the truck. Scott is going to take some pictures and put it up on KSL.com, if anyone is interested.
Tonight (Sunday) Deborah and I went out to play cards, but Scott and Nancy and their family were there, so we had a nice visit. Scott and Tyler put the cover on the swamp cooler because it had been banging and keeping Mom and Dad awake. After they left, Deborah and I stayed for a few more minutes to visit. Mom and Dad seemed tired and didn't even suggest that we start a game of cards.
That is all the news for now.
What happens when you have to start caring for those that always cared for you!

Is it November already?
Lisa had her babies last night! She had twin boys, Joel and Ethan. They were born early so both babies are in NICU. Lisa is doing fine and the boys are doing as expected. When I called Mom to let her know, Mom told me that she fell again. Last week she slipped to the floor in the middle of the night when she was moving from her chair to the couch. Dad had to call 911 to help her up. Last night, she fell from her chair. Mom told me that she fell on her face and scraped her face and nose and cut her lip. I don't quite know what to do for them at this point.
Otherwise, everything has been going as usual. I clean once a week most weeks. I did have to miss once because I was out of town for work. And I go out on Sundays and either visit or play cards (depending on if anyone else can go with me). Mom and Dad both came to our house on October 9th to celebrate Megan's and Jeff's birthdays. We had cake and ice cream and visited.
I am going out tomorrow to clean house and will check and see how Mom is doing.
