Where'd You Go?
Hello, Hello… Where’d you go? I turned around To find someone I didn’t quite know. Hello, Hello… What’s my name? You’ll ask me again, I’ll tell you the same. Hello, Hello… Where are you? I seek and search for answers in every book; I just don’t know where else to look. Hello, Hello… Come back to me, My one true love. This is my prayer to God above. Hello, Hello… Yes, I’ll stay with you For all your days Sharing my memories of your sweet ways. Hello, Hello… Thank you for sharing life with me.
I am a Caregiver
I am a caregiver it’s what I do. 24/7, I’m here for you. And most of the time we do just fine But once in a while, I need my own time. And when I take that necessary break I’ve got to remember it’s for both our sake. I can’t take care of you unless I take care of me. So I work very hard at being guilt-free. I’ll always be here for you, so don’t you fret. Together we’re making memories of us I’ll never forget. Further reproduction is by written permission only.
The Art to Successful Family Meetings

Pinkies Up for Caregivers
Remembering Mimi and Learning How to Balance Life Sometimes we can look to our past to learn how to find the balance we seek in our present lives. Our memories should be treasured and also viewed as shaping and touching our lives today. Mimi was my great-grandmother. She lived with my family until I was in the third grade. Mimi would get me off the bus from kindergarten and prepare my lunch for me. She would sit with me in the big corner chair and watch the Walton's and Lawrence Welk.
