Went to see Mom and Dad today. They were both in bed and I thought sleeping when I got there about 3 minutes after 1:00. I walked over to check on Mom and she opened her eyes and said HI, Precious. She talked to me and told me she was glad to see me, etc. I'm sure she didn't know who I was, but it was fine. She looked so good and all. When I turned back around, Dad had his eyes open, too. He was glad to see me, too, today and talked about the snow, etc. I brought him the paper and he said he hadn't read it. He'd started the football game last night but didn't know how it ended, etc. He was good. I told him I'd brought him some tobacco, and he said good that's all he needed. I took it to Debbie and when I went back in, he asked if I'd put it in the drawer. I told him I'd given it to Debbie. He asked where Mom was. I told him she was in bed asleep. He said, ok, he'd tell her I'd been there. I told him I'd talked to her already. It was good. I just some days have a harder time than others. Today they were both so good and so nice and were so clean, etc. It made it harder on me. Isn't that weird? It catches me so off guard that it really gets to me. Anyway, I got a letter from DHS concerning Dad today. They're going to do a telephone interview about Dad tomorrow morning at 10:00. It's just the inital contact thing, but I'm going to go to Chad's office and let him do the talking. I'm through talking to DHS. I'll gather the info they want and take it with me. There will be a letter forthcoming from them asking the same things + more after the phone call. That's the way it was last time we applied for Dad. Still no word on Mom yet nor any word from GenAmerica about the life insurance surrender. GRRRRR! I knew the '10 day' thing with them wouldn't be that. I turned it in 2 weeks ago today----faxed it to them 2 weeks ago today. Nothing yet. I guess I'll call them tomorrow, too, to see how's it going! LOL! Ok, today I'm tired. Love you all, Jeanie
