Symbolic way

 This red lanyard with the house keys and fab is my chain. Well for now, I have one more day and I am free of it. I can't believe I've stayed in for 17 days without going anywhere. Well, there was one day when I went to the 16th to try to get my package but even then I felt chained to where I'm at. I am not allowed to travel far from Bastille. Edna just told me I could since she had a husband who was staying behind when she gallivants outside. I didn't think of that. The old lady is not a baby but yet just "in case" something happens...and I had to leave when the stupid nurse didn''t come in early..lol...oh well, lessoned learned. Maybe next time I would not do this kind of "private home health aide" anymore. It is kinda restricking. I had never experienced this, not going anywhere until I willed it. Imagine even back in Florida I would drive for an hour just so I could go to work. I love driving..where I can listen and sing out loud to my songs in my car. That to me is "freedom"..to go wherever you want to go. Here in Paris the Metro is pretty redundant..lol

It was a good but hard experience this was, but as always I try to look at the bright side. The old lady is good and easy to get along with. I hope she will remain healthy, it's just her Parkinson's is the one restricting her. Her daughter said 3 years ago she was still coherent of things and thinking. I think she is great as long as she has someone that constantly coaxed her to "interact" not just watching tv all the time. I wonder how long is the survival of someone with Parkinson's disease. Maybe I'll try to visit her now and then.
