I've been in the same restaurant as you for several years now with the Club Sandwich/Sandwich Club with my Mom and daughter. Mom is now in an Assisted Living Facility and so it's just another page in the menu for me! And then on the other hand, my newly married daughter has "needs" which only I can fill.....even though her husband is totally capable and willing, there are areas where Mama is the only one! And so it goes......! <BR/><BR/> Last Friday the nosepiece on my husband's glasses broke and he couldn't get with the tech at the Eye Dr's until yesterday...so it's been a Humpty Dumpty week for him too!<BR/><BR/> We're recovering from our first ice storm of the winter season...a doozy, without power for 10 hours! Needless to say, no dyeing for me today!<BR/><BR/>xo<BR/>JudyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10294353.post-1134654795667319182005-12-15T08:53:00.000-05:002005-12-15T08:53:00.000-05:00P.S. - I'm too old to be a baby boomer, I hate to ...P.S. - I'm too old to be a baby boomer, I hate to say.

The point at which you are taking care of the needs of both your parents and your children - you are the middle of the sandwich and it is not fun. Like: your kids are too young to drive and you need to carpool them to something at the same time that your mother, who no longer drives, has a doctor's apppointment, no friends, no public transporatation, and the cab fare is prohibitive because the doctor is 15 miles away. You are being pulled in both directions. It has nothing to do with what decade you were born in; I first heard a family therapist use the term way back in the late 1970's-early '80s and thought it was brilliant.Raynahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02981832263645584878noreply@blogger.com
