A very hot day

Hello again

I made mom a very nice fish dinner before I left today. And when I was taking it out of the oven, I burned myself in three spots on my arm. So lets see, early this week I cut my thumb and now I burned myself. Whats left. It is okay. I cook so therefor I will burn and cut myself. It is all good.

By the way mom loved the dinner. A Panko/Parmesan crusted cod loin. With a seafood salad and an avocado. A piece of Key lime pie, I made the night before, for dessert. And of course her Papaya and her Lindt Truffles.

So mom, as mentioned, was able to eat properly today. The roommate lost her remote so she is not watching TV late. The staff turn it off at 10. Mom had no problem chewing and swallowing her food tonight. And not to tired either.

I am not impressed with this at all. No manager today. So I will be writing the complaint office this weekend. I have to for mom's sake.

And today it was a day to wash her hair. I really did a good job styling it tonight. Tomorrow is bath day and I am going to style it again. They don't do anything to it. Looks horrible when I arrive.

But I didn't have a chance to just hold her hand while she fell asleep. While mom is being changed, this is when I go and do the dishes and make some more tea. But with this care aid she likes me to stay and help. So it is not until after I do her spa treatment that I go and do those things. I am just going to have to stay later. Fine by me.

I left later, though. And still didn't get to spend the time I wanted to spend with mom. I am so pissed off that I still stay out here in Coquitlam and can't find an affordable place in White Rock.

Tomorrow being Saturday, I am going there early and will stay later. Provided mom isn't to tired. Which she usually falls asleep early on Saturdays.

I  will stay as late as mom wants me to stay. When she wants me to leave, she will let me know. And I am okay with that.

I picked up the rest of her clothing that I had adapted. So we will see if the staff use them or not. So far they haven't used much of them. Maybe I need to put up a sign.

Well it is after midnight, my time, I need to finish dinner and eat.

GOD bless and good night.
