I'm just posting this to confirm that I aten't dead, just very, very tired and struggling a bit at most things. Trying to build up some strength for a brief jaunt south at the start of June, which I am really looking forward to. I think it would help if I could get back to a normal sleep rhythm. In the meantime, I'm catching up with some things like: watching piles of DVDs, Ashes to Ashes, Doctor Who (was enjoying it until the last couple of episodes, which I found quite tedious), and getting back into a bit of reading. Still not back to normal, and still at times getting caught out by thinking "That's my father" when the phone rings. I am concerned, a little, about my mother's concentration and memory, and slightly thrown by the way she's deferring to me a lot of the time, even about stuff that I think is wholly her business and her choice. Weird.
That's it really. Nothing to see here...

You might want to seriously think about talking to your mother about her setting up a Power of Attourney to allow somebody of her choosing to manage her affairs; that is if you haven't already done so.

The phone thing is disconcerting. The other day my mother's phone rang and I thought, "Oh, that'll be my father calling from the hospital."
*sigh*
