"How about I come over and do some housework so you can sit down for a few minutes."
Or come over and chat with her for an hour, so that I am not her sole source of amusement. Or better still, set a time, pick up her and her walker, and take her shopping or to lunch without me. If it's someone else's schedule, she'll be ready in time. It's only with the family she runs on Mommy Standard Time.
Why yes, I am frustrated.
I know no one can solve this. I know the only way through is one day at a time, and sometimes one breath at a time. But I have spent most of my adult life fighting to keep her from taking over my life...and now here we are.
