In between visits to the nursing home and doing laundry, I threw together
a lunch of collard greens, blackeye peas, onions, garlic and smoked
rib tips. Man if you ever wondered what to do with those rib tips this is
the cat's meow. Easy as all get out. Saute some onion and garlic.Throw
it into a decent sized pot. Dump in a package of frozen collard greens or
your choice of fresh. Add a double handful of blackeyed peas or maybe
a little more. Get it all started and them dump in a half pound of so of
sparerib tips. Simmer until it all comes together. Eat your heart
out. This is some good shit. Other then S & P, I had no desire for any
other spices.

Is she now in a Nursing Home then, Howard?

This may prove to be easier on your body . . . .

Yes. She went straight to the nursing home from the hospital. The plan
is for rehab therapy, but in her case, her state of mind raises some
question as to her being able to live at home with minimal outside support.
She is improving, but how much she will recover remains in question.

Well, that's a damned shame. Knowing the loving care with which you
have/are providing her, I suspect that this is pretty rough on you.
Nonetheless, I hope you have, and are able to provide her with a Nice
Christmas.

Like I've heard you say, "Shiny side up!"

It is a sad thing [I've been there with my Mother], but at some point
the Professionals need to step up to the plate. As her Universe
inevitably narrows, the only one remaining to do the suffering is you.

You need to reprogram yourself, Howard [easy for me to say, eh - but
been - there did that . . . . ]
