"Would You Like Fries With Your $*&@#^ Sandwich Generation?"

Running a multi-generational house with kids, parents, and parents' parents.
Ahhh, what an opportunity to share wisdom across the generations.
YEAH RIGHT.
I spend my days hunting for missing dentures, passing out meds, running people
to doctors appointments, and talking the youngest out of smothering the oldest with a pillow.
This better turn into a best-selling novel.

I Need a Vacation to Relax from Getting Ready for my Vacation

We're going to the lovely Wisconsin Dells next week for Spring Break, mostly because it's within driving distance and we had timeshare points that were going to expire. The biggest headache is WHAT TO DO WITH BETTY? The Assisted Living center we usually use fired Joyce and Lillian, who were really good with Betty. I was just bitchy enough to call, pretend I didn't know this, but let them know that I couldn't possibly let Betty stay there if Joyce and Lillian weren't working there anymore. So Joyce will come here and stay with Betty, and the lovely Kim will drive her to the senior center as usual. I'm happy to pay Joyce directly--she's still looking for a new job.

All I have to do now is stock the house with the Veggie Straws that Betty lives on, and clean my bedroom, so Joyce doesn't find out what a crappy housekeeper I am.
