Moving the Goalposts

[MaryN]

Well, as from tomorrow my goal posts will be well and truly moved. We are taking in my MIL! She has reached the age where she is no longer really up to looking after herself and has asked if we can take her in.

No, I am not being particularly charitable, I am doing my OH an enormous favour. He now owes me big time!

This has rather interfered with my plans. I now have to plan for an oldie who doesn't have her own teeth and has no particular talents in anything really. I wouldn't quite put her in the same category as the BIL (potential dogfood!), but she could kindly be regarded as a bit of a liability. How does one prep to include for the really elderly? I have no idea.
