Hello again
I want to tell you about the latest bull shit my mother and I have to deal with. My mother's TV remote is missing.
Yesterday, Wednesday, I was in the room, before feeding mom dinner. And her roommates remoter was missing.I know this, because I looked for it and could not find it. Also a staff member looked for it as well. And could not find it.
Tonight, I went to turn mom's TV on and her remoter was gone. But the roommates remoter was back. OK they both have the same TV, but is it not a little suspect, that one day the roommates remote goes missing and mom's is exactly where it is usually. And the next mom's remote is gone.
I can't even use the TV now. I can't hock up an HDMI cable. as I need the remote to change the TV to HDMI 1 or 2. I have some movies that mom and I want to watch. I put them on a flash drive and tried to watch them last week. But the TV won't play movies, it will only show photo's and play music. So I bring my laptop and hock an HDMI cable to it.
Oh yea, I was given an older laptop.
The power was out last night, so no diner for the residents. But I brought mom some gnoki and a home made sauce. A microwave was working. As there are plugs that are not affected by power outages. So mom had a hot meal. And I was able to play music for her. The room has a red plug in it, so I used my extension cord and plugged in her stereo.
I know the remote was missing, as mom's roommate was getting upset about the TV being off and asked me to had her the remote. Even though I said that there is no TV for now. I looked anyway
I need the remote, I want to play mom this movie. Time to call the social worker again. I am really tired of nonsense of the roommate. Mom needs darkness to sleep in. As well as most people want to sleep in the dark and without a TV on.
So that is it tonight. I don't want to write anymore. I am pissed off about this remote control issue. I can't believe the staff would do this. Take from one person and give their property to another. Because the other person has a problem and needs to be watching TV all the time.
GOD bless and good night.
