mom was happy - her kitchen was shining!!!
she didn't eat breakfast on her own even if I told her what she could have/what she had- I didn't have keys (dh had them) but once I got the keys I went over there to give her lunch and meds. She wants to stay home. I know I will have to go over there later. I wish she would get involved with the building activities but she is just happy with us. I have to figure that out.
I bought a pill dispenser - I am going to try it as soon as it comes. It closes after 30 minutes.
Good thing: she forgot to be angry with me and feeling happy again. (the nurse thing really upset her for the whole day but didn't know why she was upset later on).
She even thanked me for bringing her lunch. All good! She was happy that dh was home!
dh is pushing off his care again - he wants to do it himself but not doing it.
I have to take over if he doesn't take care of himself. That won't be pretty.
cleaned and filled the bird feeders, rinsed out one bird bath and refilled, emptied all the new seed, that I had in the car, into the containers.
waving to you all.
d Nancy so sorry you had a bs crash!!! hope you are feeling better now!
d twins I am so sorry you are having a rough afternoon - I am sending you a new positive afternoon!!!! sending you a reset after your nap!
hello d rose
You do have a kind happy soul! Sometimes it's hard to know when things click or not.
mom is great and then things are put in odd areas or she brings out stuff home in her bag.
its good that Both of your have a good sense of humor.
I understand the trigger response. It's hard.
praying your dh does not go through that part. My grandparents, dh's aunt didn't go through the mean times. Only one friend of mine had their parent go through that - it started early. praying.
I always said, like you, it's good that we have been able to laugh and enjoy our loved ones with Dementia and Alzheimers. the only time it's frustrating for me is when mom says really mean things. I understand the frustration that they have and most time I can be empathic and kind. There are so many things that are endearing, or we can smile. She takes on other peoples experiences quit a lot now.She still says she broke an artery in there throat - that happened to dd older a week after her tonsils being removed. mom believes she did.
I hurt for them when they are sad or worried.

hi d lady I would assume that with your heat in the summer that your last frost would be earlier. I have been thinking the same thing about the changing of the seasons bc of the weather. We too have had a late fall - we have had snow on halloween and before but not this year. it's been weird.
what a smart way to put food in the fridge!!!
hello d harriet!
I think you are right - someone could make money on that. I use a label maker.
thank you re dh!
lol on your dh waiting on telling you about the vitamins. dh does the same.
I too don't like sweet smoothies - have you tried freeze dried fruit. I let it sit in a bit of water or in the yogurt. I buy it for the winter.
I am a little drained by events but will put a sign up to have a happy new attitude. I am finally feeling a bit relaxed.
