Always Time for Fishing, Altered Art by ME!
The photo is just so I have something to look at. I am an artist and this is one of my altered art pieces, and prints are available in my Etsy store, AmyVanGaasbeckArtist.
I didn't read as much as I had hoped to in 2025. The year kind of threw me for a loop. My mom went from stage 5-ish Alzheimers to late stage 6. She fell and broke her hip. Then my mother in law had a stroke and my sister took over caring for my Mom so I could move my inlaws into my house to take care of them full time. Oh yeah, and my father in law has dementia/Alzheimers at an earlier stage than my mother, so I have to be alert all the time. So as we tried to renovate our house to accommodate them, and are still working on it, and working on dealing with combining two households while also trying to get over to visit my mom on occasion, and bring in an income...it's been a lot. It doesn't help that they insist on having the TV on all day and refuse to read, color, or get up and do anything at all. I have tried, but they won't do anything. So I have to wait for relief so I can hide away and read a chapter of a book. But that's life and I am glad I can serve them no matter how crazy it can get!
