Jeanie and I went to the nursing home this morning along with Bruce and Maggie. It was really a good visit~ They were sitting in the dining room when we got there and they were in the big room today instead of the little one where they usually are. Mom had eaten literally everything on her plate! She was even trying to eat the napkin~lol At one point she picked up some bacon off the plate beside her. Not sure if it was Dad's or not but whatever~lol Dad said had eaten and there wasn't biscuits or eggs on his plate but the whole bowl of gravy was still there. Not sure if he had seen it or not. He said something about they didn't cook as good as someone else. NO clue what that was about but Nikki later told us that he had eaten everything. She gave him some tobacco too which he loves!~ Mom was laughing some and talking about how cute jeanie's little girl was!~lol She never said our names or anything but she did say Precious to us. I'm so glad she always knows Dad though because when he comes into her view she'll say "There's my precious". I asked Dad if Mom talks a lot since she was constantly talking to herself, us, the wall, etc. Dad said "Oh Lord, she talks all the time~~" He even called her MotorMouth once!~lol
One of the weirdest things was that we were all just sitting around talking and Mom all of a sudden said "Hot Springs" which she was reading off my shirt! She said something about loving it there" She said too to Jeanie and I later that she and Dad got to do "funner"(fun plus er)lol things now. She always looks not good to me when she has that matted stuff in her eyes but Jeanie washed it out and it makes a huge difference in her appearance. She told us to come back soon when we left. Jeanie said it was the best she had seen Mom in a while. Dad made a few statements that were weird but not all of them for sure. He told Bruce and I about some woman who had a long full beard and was laughing about it. LOL Bruce told Daddy that she was who he was looking for and Dad laughed. We told Dad about Katilyn coming to college today and he seemed to understand that. He did tell Bruce that "Bruce had fallen 30 feet" which was half right at least. When I said no that it was Randall, he just kinda looked at me weird. All in all I'm counting this as a good visit. Love from the two of us! Jeanie and Judy
