OK it is time to..............

Hello again

Tonight I saw mom get mad, and it wasn't grumpy because she was tired. Mom got mad, really mad, at her roommate. She directed her dirty looks toward the roommate, and even tried to say shut up. I know mom and I know when she is really mad. I know what she looks like when really pissed off. And she was.. I have not seen mom like this in a very long time.

The roommate was at it all night long. Calling the staff to tell them that these people were in the room all night. And she even told me about it. And when I was their  she was speaking to her daughter. Who by the way, is in California right now.  This goes on and on. I just stop speaking with her or acknowledging her delusions.

So mom was extremely tired. I did get their early and washed her hair. Mom didn't want this to happen, but it makes her feel good. So we got it done. With a little bit of fussing on mom's part.

It is Friday, and I try to bring her fish on this day. Partly because it is healthy for her, and she is Catholic. So mom ate the dinner I brought her, plus some on the dinner served. She was very full. I got her changed for bed. Brushed her teeth and the staff came to change her and put her to bed.

Because mom was so tired, I only performed mom's spa treatment on her face and feet tonight. And then I just stood their and held her hand while she fell off to sleep.

Other than this mom is fine. And it makes me feel really good to be able to help mom out everyday.

I usually hold mom's right hand, as she cannot move her left arm and hand that much. But I am starting to make sure I hold her left hand more often. The hand needs the warmth. It will help mom to loosen her hand.

Anyways. I really am not making much sense now. Or I need to eat and just stare at the laptop and watch something.

GOD bless and good night

Pray that I find a place in White Rock
