Jeanie and I went to LNC today to visit and I had an AWESOME visit with Mom because she was better than she's been in a while.  She opened her eyes several times, said I love you too when I told her that I loved her.  When I was leaving I told her that I'd be back and she said "Oh good because I'd be sick if you weren't going to". She told Dad his hands were cold.  She said "that stinks" when I gave her tea.  There were several other things she said too.  I was so happy because I was thinking she'd be in a coma-like state!  Dad on the other hand was good but doesn't say a lot of things I understand!  He was talking about Walmart and he needed to do something and I told her that I'd take care of it and not to worry and he said OK.  I asked if he'd seen Pat and he said yes he had.  I asked if he'd seen Judy and he said No!lol  I told him "uhhhhh, I'm right here Dad".  lol  I asked if he'd seen Jeanie and he said he'd seen her somewhere and she was sitting right beside him.  He said he hadn't seen Pam or Jamie and I told him that I knew Jamie was there this past week and he said "sure nuf?"lol They both ate good--Mom had half her mashed potatoes, all her applesauce, all her pink milkshake, all her tea, all her water, half her meat stuff, all her orange juice and all her ice cream!lol  I tricked her several times by putting on meat and then applesauce or ice cream and she ate it good.  Oh and she ate all her yogurt!  She does look so much more comfortable in the new chair.  She had her shower today and was clean and clean clothes that were actually hers!lol  I plan on going to Jeanie's late on Thursday and going to LNC every other Friday.  I won't go this Friday but will the next and then every other after that.  Jamie do you have a day planned or are you adlibbing?  I know they are working on your house a lot and your boys are at college and can't help.  If you get a chance to come on Thursday night then I could see you!  Same for you Pat and Pam!!  I'm up for a roadtrip too whenever now that I'm home and slowly getting my stuff organized back in it's rightful place!  Love to all, Judy
