Today is Thurs, and I just got back from visiting Mom and Dad! They were both at the front door when I got there today and Dad was mumbling badly! The lady working there couldn't understand him either. I finally figured out he was looking for tobacco. Mom didn't even realize I was there! Anyway,I pushed Mom back around to the nurses' station and Debbie said I (meaning herself) have a new name. I'm like---what? Anyway, she said Dad couldn't remember her name and now just called her 'repeat'! What on earth!?! No idea! Anyway, he got his tobacco, but he said he'd lost his cap. It was in his room beside his bed on the table! Got it for him and then went into their room to try to eliminate some of the channels on their tv. It goes like up to 122 and higher. Sick of the Country Music Videos! LOL! Anyway, they both came in there and Mom was just talking---the way she used to do. Talking about everything and to 'someone' and answering and just talking! She was fine---not mad or anything--just talking. Once she goes: look that lady fell down! The lady on the tv had! Dad talked to me and made sense after we got back to the room and were just talking. I REALLY want to do something to their room! Crack out the ole brains, sisters, and let's do something to help the 'feel' of their home now! I'm thinking a flag, flag pic, pics of family, something that looks and feels like a home! I finally tore off the April and June (go figure! not even May's) activity calendar off their lockers today! I couldn't stand that any longer! They were doing ok. Dad told me to be careful and Mom did ask what was I going to do today. They were both clean. Mom must have two skin tears---one on each wrist, and Dad had a bandaid on his right hand by his Murray State ring. I asked about it and he said he'd hit it on the edge of the wall out there (meaning the hall). Oh, and Mom had a FIT when they came to take her to the bathroom. So much so that they just left her and said they'd try again later. Dad said 'she's fighting them again', so I'm assuming this is normal! LOL! Ok, love you all! It's suppose to be hotter than blue blazes the next few days here! OH, and Little Billy has made the first of the copies of the DVD's that I had made at WalMart! He's been really worried and busy----his prostate cancer has come back and he's taking treatments for it. He's such a great guy. I'm suppose to play them to make sure they're ok, and then he'll make the other copies and FINALLY I can mail all the pics, cd's, etc out! YEA! Jeanie
