Hubby's cousin has confirmed that she will only be coming over on Mondays from now on to pick up groceries and prescriptions, take out the trash and make sandwiches. I have contacted her daughter and am waiting for a call back. As far as I know, the 2nd cousin will continue to take me to appointments. Tomorrow the guy that bought the scrap car from me is coming to clean out my dryer vent. I didn't realize he had another business. Friday Carvana is coming to buy the Scion. I hope there's no fuss about the price as I'm accepting $700 less than the original quote. I'm getting a late start today. May have to finish up this afternoon. Breakfast - Protein bar Lunch - Meals on Wheels - Salisbury steak, noodles, mixed veggies, apple juice, pears Dessert/Snack - Ice cream Dinner - Turkey/cheddar sandwich and Fritos What did you eat yesterday?

I so wished some of us lived closer to you. I know your stubborn self wouldn’t want any of us to assist you, but eventually we’d wear you down with love. Yesterday, I had an egg salad sandwich, a strawberry salad with poppyseed dressing, and some pasta salad. And I’ve been very disappointed by not finding cinnamon bears at Walmart!

I would take your help because I pay. I feel OK if I'm paying someone for helping. All of your meals sound good. You might have to order the cinnamon bears online.

After you sell the car to Carvana , will you own any car?

I hope the 2nd cousin of your husband will continue to take you to appointments. I hope her daughter will take care of you from now on.

@LadyDuck I think it's an odd place to choose.

Did you try contacting CarMax to see if they can give you a better deal? I hope you’ll be able to get all the help you need without needing to hire someone else.

CarMax said they won't pick up. We'll see how this whole cousin thing works out.

Hopefully you can work out some better logistics with the help. Best of luck to you on that. For dinner, we just had spaghetti and meatballs for dinner that we had leftover along with some poor man's garlic bread. Nice to sometimes just use things up.

I hope these family members don't let you down. Sounds like there's a lot of business going on right now.

I'm going to ask cousin's daughter about her friend to see if she'd be interested. She drives a school bus now.

glad you got the car sold, even if you’re not getting anything near what it’s worth. I had chicken soft taco for lunch and chicken sammiches (one with, don’t get sick, spicy mustard!) & taters for dinner. And pears and yogurt and fiber!

Spicy mustard might be OK. Yeah, I'll be pissed though if they don't give me the full offer for the car.

I hope that this new schedule will be a lasting one, she must realize that you are counting on her. You know that you would be helped by all of us should myLot exist in a physical form. Yesterday I had a little turkey and Swiss cheese and lettuce on a small wrap for lunch, and chicken balls, veggie spring rolls and breaded shrimp for supper last night. Keep on keeping on Linda, you are an amazing lady and I think of you often during my work day and send you positive vibes.

You are so sweet, Julia. I hope you are feeling OK. I think of you and my other MyLot friends quite often.

Maybe the cottage cheese would be OK with the other ingredients. I used to use cottage cheese in my lasagna.

I hope the cousins are able to continue to help you out with what you need. What we had was a banana for breakfast, peanuts and pretzels for lunch and nothing for dinner. We weren't hungry. Probably because we had a cookout Sunday after church at Mike's Moms home with the family.

We will see how it works out with her daughter. I really don't think she's going to have time to help me. Maybe she knows of someone???

I hope the sale of the Scion goes smoothly. What will you do if they were to offer any less?

I would be very pissed because I'm already taking a $700 loss because I didn't take the first offer. At that time I still had to get the title in my name.

I hope it works out okay with the daughter. I am not sure about what I ate. Pork roast and a potato last night. Lemonade.

Hope the new arrangement with the cousin works and the daughter will continue to take you to your appointments. Good luck with the car and getting your dryer vent cleaned. That's something on my "to do" list for one of these days. Last night we had fire roasted chicken, baked potatoes and mixed vegetables.
