Hello again
I had a meeting in Vancouver today, and it went over. So I almost did not make it to mom's for dinner. Just in time. I had enough time to pick up something to go with the salad I made her. New smoothie today, as well, nice and thick. Just like a milkshake, but without the milk. OK, yogurt is used to thicken the smoothie. This time was a Strawberry, mango, banana smoothie. So I got her some candied salmon. This mom just loved.
It has been awhile since mom rubbed my face, motioning for me to give her the spa treatment. Or was it just to show me some affection. Which is the way I look at it. Well I look at it both ways. Makes me feel good and mom as well.
Being Tuesday, the roommate is getting her bath, so mom and I have the room to ourselves for an hour. And mom enjoys this time. We talk, sing, laugh. Without a TV or delusions. And the roommate was at it again, after her bath. Saying why can't you see all the dead animals up on the self. This is with her daughters their. And she argues with them about it.
Now, mom was very tired, after her dinner and just wanted to get into bed. She did put up a little bit of a fuss while giving her the spa treatment. It was just because she just wanted to hold my hand and fall asleep. This makes me want to cry, just writing about it.
I wish, I wish, I could find a place in White Rock. So I could be their for mom, more often. So I can stay latter and not have to worry about spending 3 hours traveling to get back to Coquitlam.
Well I guess that won't be much of an issue after the end of the month. Not being able to afford the place I am at now..
I finished her spa treatment and mom held on to my hand very tightly and closed her eye's for the night.
It was uneventful, but worth every second I spend with her. It does not always have to be exciting. Just being their and sitting with mom, makes my day. The staff tell me that the entire time I am with mom, she doesn't take her eye's off of me. And has a constant smile on her face. As do I.
It is after midnight and I didn't sleep well last night. Kept waking up every hour. I can't stand it here anymore.
I have put an add on Craigslist and this is not the first time. And nothing.
Have to go now.
GOD bless and good night
