Today I spent my time…an homage to the sandwich generation
- ·
I spent the early morning getting a colonoscopy
(I am 54 & am at “that age”)
- ·
I spent the late morning proof reading my son’s
college essay in professional writing (I am a woman who knows proper grammar)
- ·
I spent the late afternoon helping my mother
with her health problems & memory issues (It's what we should & want to do)
- ·
I spent the early evening planning how to be
there for my mom (a widow) & my son (a milllennial)
- ·
I spent the mid-evening preparing dinner,
taking care of the pets (dog for a walk & cat fed)
- ·
I spent the late evening calendaring my things
to do while doing laundry & cleaning up the house (there remain “life
things” which need to be completed to keep a family functioning)
- ·
I spent the wee hours of the morning working (I
must financially support my family)
- ·
I spent the few hours left sleeping that “sleep
of the dead” (I try to “unplug” and pray I get a few hours of sleep).
