Door County, Respite, and Threads

Hey Bookdragons! Happy Sunday! I hope you’ve been having a relaxing weekend. I admit I can’t seem to get enough sleep lately.

This past Tuesday was Independence Day here in the U.S. and my family and I decided to go to Door County (a popular tourist area in Wisconsin) for the day. On my mom’s bucket list was a trip to Cana Island Lighthouse so that’s where we started our day. We took a wagon across to the island as during certain times there is extremely low tide revealing a stone and sand path. Once there one of the employees was nice enough to take my mom and I around the island on a golf cart and gave us a great tour. The people were so nice and accommodating!

We also went to an attraction called “The Farm” were you could interact with baby goats, sheep, pigs, and more.

On Wednesday my mom was feeling tired and irritable and on Thursday she fell in the bathroom again and then later in the day needed assistance getting up again so my sister and I and the hospice decided in the best interest of safety that my mom should go to respite care at a nursing facility for 5 days. We’re now looking at long term care in a facility as things decline health wise.

In more carefree news I’m sure you’ve all at least hear of the new app Threads. It seemed like the only thing people were talking about so I broke down and joined the app. If you want to follow me you can do so here
