a good blog, see I knew it could happen

Well, well well. I told you I'd have a good blog to write some day and here it is already.
I broke down today and ask my aunt who lives in Oregon if she could come down to stay for a bit and help me. She had offered a few weeks ago but of course I said no, I didn't need any help. But knowing what Kelly is going thru and knowing I just can't keep up my end of the deal right now I ask her for help. Ok, really Kelly made me promise I'd ask. I didn't want to. It makes me cry to think I have to have help with things as small as house work and preparing food and getting to doc appts. But she quickly said yes and is leaving tomorrow morning. She is driving down so she can drop her puppies off at a friends house in No. Ca. I know she is not used to huge traffic, I hope she'll be ok. I am so grateful, I cried again. Been doing a lot of that lately.

Then my sister called. She is going to come over tomorrow and help me even if all I have energy for is getting some food and walking. You know you have to walk me like a dog now. But she's going to bring her sewing machine and teach me (or kill me cuz I'm a dummie) to make a quilted bag. She was going to teach me to make a quilt but I really need a bag cuz I have to carry so much stuff around all the time and I don't have enough hands. So if I have energy after lunch and a walk and finally getting my nails done, we'll work on the bag. We can get the guest room clean too for Sharyn.

I got in trouble cuz I don't ask for help. I told her I know she's too busy, she has a job, a house, two horses.. but she said for me she'd find the time. For me! Ok, cry again.
Even now. And then later Lynn, (my sister) called again. I had told her not to plan Easter, I'm too tired to go anywhere. She and Denny called from the grocery store and said they would bring Easter to us. So we'll have yummy food! I hope she gets jelly beans or marshmallow eggs, my favorites, peeps, circus peanut bunnys, white chocolate bunnies...wow, I've missed all that being sick. I usually buy Easter candy for weeks before Easter!

So there it is. The cavalry has arrived and probably would have sooner if I wasn't so stubborn. But like I said, I don't have much left to base my life on so I want to be able to do everything here. I guess I'll be dropping my class again...I'll never get past sign II. What's kinda scary now, I feel better tonite than I have in a while. Not "all better" but not so sick. Maybe the relief of knowing that I'm getting help. By the time my aunt comes or my sister, they're going to wonder what all the fuss was about, and smack me! But that's ok.
So, off to do another breathing treatment. Maybe the vest? ick.
