Spending nearly Seven Hours in Bed last night was truly something that I have looked forward to for a long time. Again, I had barely left the Bedroom when Kathy came out to join me. She was still beaming with excitement over yesterday’s Surprise Birthday Party. It was the kids that planned it all, while I was only used to get Kathy over to where our Granddaughter lives.
Though
there was no Rain,
looking out the Balcony
Door
at the sky full of Black
Clouds
was not encouraging. When I said we would go for short walks in case,
Kathy was certain it was about to Rain.
When I suggested we return to the Mall
to walk, it was her Knee
that was hurting. Even telling her that the less I walk was bad for
my Hip,
it was “Not
now”.
I have mentioned that whenever there is a Family Celebration, everyone goes home with Leftovers. I felt guilty last night still coming away with Food that I had not help contribute to, but I made use of it for lunch today. We had a meal of Broasted Chicken, Penne, Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes, Coleslaw and Cream Cheese Peppers. I made certain that Kathy had the mild ones today. I was certain there would be no need for more food today.
Back at our Computers and looking out the Balcony Door, we were seeing breaks in the Clouds with Sunlight beaming through. That allowed me to say we needed to go to the Drug Store. I showed Kathy the Medication Spreadsheet and what I needed to pick up before the next time I worked on the Doucettes. Being that Thursdays are considered Seniors Discount Days she agreed we should go.
The parking lot was full when we arrived at the nearby Shoppers Drug Mart and no matter how much I tried coaxing Kathy in, she stayed in the Car. Inside was as full as the lot, but instead of having more than One Cashier up front where the customers heading for the Exit were, they opened the tills at the Cosmetics and the Pharmacy. What took me Five Minutes to find, took Fifteen Minutes to pay for.
When I got back to the Car, Kathy seemed distant but the moment I mentioned going to Dollarama, she perked up. We managed to restock the Brisk Iced Tea we share but they did not have the Breakfast Juice we prefer. In line at the Cashier, Kathy wanted Chocolate Bars because she was getting hungry. (After our big lunch???) I told her that we could go to a Restaurant if she put them back. It worked like a charm.
We went to the Michigan Diner for supper. Since Kathy’s birthday was yesterday and mine will be tomorrow, we have celebrated both on the day between for years and that was what we did today. We placed our order as soon as the waitress brought our menus because we know them by heart. Moments after our Soft Drinks were served Kathy said she wanted to go visit her brother Danny. When told we had on Saturday, she claimed that was not him, that she had seen a picture of him On-Line. I simply said that we would talk later and she forgot all about it.
I believe that every time she is alone, without others around to talk with, is when she becomes Confused. I can bring her to the stores, but if she will not go in, I cannot force her.
The Weather Guesser on the “6 o’clock Local News” showed that we can expect Rain for the next Seven Days. The Weather Network does not have the same forecast. We’ll see who was right.
We watched “Law and Order, Special Victims” before Kathy went to Bed at 10:00 while I started writing the Blog. She came out Thirty Minutes later to see what was taking so long.
We’ll see what we accomplish tomorrow.
