Happy Birthday Jennifer!
Today is Jennifer's Birthday (Andy's wife)... so hope you have a wonderful day!
Well, mom is not feeling very well. She has a sore throat and is stuffed up. So if anyone calls you may not recognize her voice. The hospice nurse Karen, is still sick today, so she didn't come for her visit. Mom is wearing a mask around dad, just in case. She said that when Danna called last night she didn't recognize her voice. It was pretty bad. She said that it was fine and then she went in to ask dad if he was ready for dinner and thought, wow, what happened to my voice.
Dad had kind of a restless night. He was up at 11:30, 12:30 and 4:30. Mom was able to get back to sleep after each stirring and slept till about 8. They got up then and had breakfast. Dad didn't want to take his pills today. He took 2 of the stool softeners and said that the 3rd was just too big to take, so he spit it out. Then decided to lay back down. Mom didn't figure that it would hurt him much, and he could always take it later.
They have an in-service at school today, so no afternoon classes. That means mom is home today, which is good. Hopefully she will feel much better tomorrow. Pastor John didn't get to come yesterday, he was stuck in Denver from his trip. But he is coming today. So that will be nice to have someone stop in today.
Yesterday afternoon when I called mom said it is just gorgeous outside. She had been sanding on the chair and was going to have her coffee on the porch again. We talked about the Blood Mobile. The FCCLA girls always do the food, so we talked about how mom was going to swing it this year. Mom said that Melissa probably has a plan. I said I would be happy to make cookies or come down, so that will be something to figure out in the next week.
The kids are going to start on their pie unit today. My mother-in-law and sister-in-law managed to get mom 20 new pie plates from the Goodwill, so that all the kids would be able to make their own crust. Should be another interesting unit! : )
Hope you all have a wonderful day and thanks for checking on dad.
