Hello again
Fall is here, you can smell it in the air. The wind is moving the leaves around. Clearing the dead for a new beginning. A fresh start for new life. Bringing in a new season.
This is what October is like around here. The rain, the wind.
Once again tonight I had to go through the laundry to get mom's clothing out. This is after I walked in and had a conversation with manager about this exact issue. Then I get to mom's room to find that the morning staff did just that, put it in the laundry. But they put a dirty sheet in the closet, where they normally would put the dirty laundry. Go figure!
Mom had her hair done today. It looked really good. The only problem,which I didn't notice until I was changing mom, was that they left mom wearing a wet shirts all afternoon long. The shirt wasn't soaking wet, but wet none the less. So I know she was wearing it for hours. This is a no no. Especially at this time of the year. Mom can get very sick. How uncomfortable for mom. I would hate to be wearing some wet clothing and not being able to tell someone to change me.
I will be checking this out every Monday, from now on. I really can't believe they let this happen.
I had a coupon, so I got mom a burger and onion rings for dinner. Mom ate just about all of the burger, most of the onion rings. Plus an avocado. Then, of course, her fruit for dessert.
Last night, the container that has mom's smoothie in, accidentally dropped on the floor. Breaking it. Well cracking the side. So on my way home I picked up and new container and then this morning made her a new smoothie.
The infant toothpaste I have purchased for mom, is working. Mom is not gaging anymore.
Tonight after dinner, I was in a goofy mood, so I was dancing with mom. Singing to her. She was all smiles.
This alone, makes everything I do worth while.
I now have everything to decorate one of her walls in a fall theme. I just have to draw a few things out. Clouds, the sun and a few other things. It is going to be dimensional. When done I will take a photo and post it up here.
I just have to stop procrastinating and just do it. But I am experiencing allot of pain in my right lower arm. I know there is something wrong with my elbow. It is hurting just typing this out. And it really hurts to write cursive.
Over all mom is doing well. Happy today. And she was completely asleep when I left tonight.
My phone is on its last legs. It is no longer a smart phone. It is just a phone. If it wasn't for having to have a phone in case something happens to mom, I might not even have a phone. Now it is dying when I try to read the bible even . Just shuts down and it takes a very long time to get it up and running properly. The battery dies. Even if I just finished charging it.
Another thing I need. This is a need, not a want. Moving to White Rock is a need. And a need now.
GOD bless and good night.
