Grammy Day
My granddaughter’s school had their Fall Carnival today. It was a good opportunity to spend the day with her. I took her over to the school where she played games, won prizes, ate popcorn and saw new friends. She even overcame her fear by going through an obstacle course and sliding down a big slide. […]
Doing Better
My mom and I went to visit my dad a little earlier today. Since he has been sleeping so much lately, we thought we would try an earlier time. We were greeted in the parking lot by one of the girls I hadn’t seen in a long time. I was afraid she had quit. She […]
The Sitter
Today my grandson came over to hang out with my mom for a little bit while I ran an errand. He brought his little sister who didn’t have school today. They all made PBJ and butter sandwiches for lunch. When I returned, my grandson dropped off his sister and headed to my son’s house. My […]
Grateful for Care
My mom and I visited my dad this afternoon. Unfortunately, he was fast asleep. My mom tried to gently wake him several times, and he actually opened his eyes once, but he was not going to get up. He has been especially sleepy since COVID and it’s probably better for him to sleep a lot […]
Back Inside
I made an appointment for my mom and I to visit with my dad this afternoon. They have been scheduling only outside visits as they make their way through this COVID breakout. When we arrived we were given the good news that the facility is COVID free and could resume indoor visits. That was great […]
Just a Sprinkle
Yesterday, my sister and mom went to visit my dad. Evidently he had a bad night and didn’t sleep much. So, when they came for their visit, he was fast asleep. The caregivers were somehow able to get him up and outside for a brief period of time, but I guess he was pretty out […]
To Love Them
The other day, my son and I were talking about his dogs. The first dog they got is calm and sweet and almost never gives them trouble. Then they got another puppy. She’s the opposite and is quite crazy. I told my son that I didn’t understand why they got another dog, when the first […]
Crew at the Zoo
My daughter-in-law has a friend visiting this weekend. I told her I would be happy to take them out and about somewhere. They chose to go to the zoo. So, we all went. There were 10 of us total, including my mom, my sister, both my sons, the grandkids, and my daughter-in-law and her friend. […]
Loving Actions
Today is the feast day of St. Therese of Lisieux. I received a bag in the mail today that had a picture of her and the words, “Do all with love”. My sister of the same name came this afternoon and I gave her the bag. In my opinion, everything she does is with love. […]
