One thing I’m gonna miss SOOOOO MUCH is holding her hand!!! MigiMo has THE SOFTEST SKIN IN THE WORLD...at two weeks shy of 92!!! She’s kinda strolling towards the light. We think she’s waiting for my brother-in-law and oldest nephew to arrive. Luckily my Tía Linda (Dad’s sister just one year younger) and my cousin, Rosa (who is Tía’s caregiver)just arrived from Orange County (So Cal)!! #migimo #livingwithmigimo #livingwithanonagenarian #caregiver #caregiverlife #familycaregiver #pelon #alchemist #comicsgodandtortillas #migimoment #migimoments #caregiverliving #caringforelderlyparents (at East Mesa, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CM0mKiOhWDy/?igshid=1q2abk1g7re9k

Checking out a new nursery...in search of indoor plant for cool new pot I bought at Home Goods. Plus a preview of today’s sunset. MigiMo is in good hands with a Marie!! #caregiverlife #pelon #alchemist #livingwithanonagenarian #livingwithmigimo #livingwithanelderlyparent # (at The Plant Stand of Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKAPPzkhSu-/?igshid=1bzn9igxfbmjk

I think MigiMo is on to something with this “staying under the covers all day” outlook!! If I wasn’t so hungry and didn’t need to go to the living room for my phone charger, I think I could figure out a way to stay here a few more hours!!! #livingwithanonagenarian #livingwithmigimo #caregiverselfcare #selfcare #selfcare2021 #amigimoment #caregiverlife #welcome2021 #welcome2021goodbye2020 #pelon #alchemist (at East Mesa, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJhD2KFh-Qn/?igshid=f48yt6db2bg2

Okay. In my typical Elias endeavor to be honest and vulnerable, I’m sharing my worst face of Covid-19. Don’t Ha just love the superb aerodynamic quality of my “____-day Covid-19 bedhead!!” This was taken right before my first shower in over a week!! Sharing this to folks know that, despite the increased NRG and oxygen level, I AM still getting exhausted after walking around a bit. MigiMo kept waking me up last night!! She was INSATIABLY hungry despite having eaten some good meals + snacks prepared by Marie on Friday! I think I fed her FOUR TIMES plus snacks throughout the night. Needless to say, that doesn’t help me rest well. Today she was particularly clingy and kept calling for her baby boy! But I AM HANGING IN THERE!! #migimoment #livingwithanonagenarian #livingwithelderlyparents #livingwithmigimo #covid-19bedhead https://www.instagram.com/p/CIt9LYuBdsy/?igshid=5zonj82q0833

Today my second cousin, Gilbert Arredondo Jr, and his love Jessica Medved got married. My sister Amy Gonzalez Taylor drove in from CA. Sadly, due to COVID-19 concerns, MigiMo and I stayed home. On an exciting note, my sweet sister drove my first cousin, Gilbert Arredondo Sr, and his wife Patricia from the wedding venue in PHX to our home in Mesa!! What a wonderful, though way too brief, time with family from KS (MigiMo’s home state!)!! #migimo #migimoments #livingwithmigimo #livingwithanonagenarian #caregiverlife #caregiving #caregivinglife #pelon #selfcare #azliving #comicsgodandtortillas https://www.instagram.com/p/B9vtuR6h41q/?igshid=i4ykwdwqe6t5

Time for a NEW LOOK!!! MigiMo has been asking me to cut off my beard for YEARS now!! I finally decided to honor her request and embrace my double chin!!

Okay. The original intent was to read from my choices of The OUT 100 issue or the series finale arc of Paper Girls. Instead, I’ve spent the whole meal curating and posting my IG feed!! #metime #caregiverlife #livingwithmigimo #migimoments #migimoment #livingwithanonagenarian #selfcare #gonchan #e-chan #overeasymesaAZ (at Over Easy Restaurant) https://www.instagram.com/p/B76llYGB0OH/?igshid=1od4m57b7xrpc
