04-02-23 Early Birthday!
The kids had me up earlier than I would have liked but I love them and was happy to have them here spending time together. Jake and I watched Still Crazy which is one of my favourite movies and I was happy to find it has stood the test of time since it came out in 1998. It was odd to see guys who seemed a lot older than they were supposed to be at that point though. Jake and the kids headed to Rae’s and I got ready, went to mom’s apartment and gathered clothes in a suitcase for her and stopped at Green Home. Had a nice chat with Judy, Roger’s Mom and then found Mom who had not had the best night. It seems that when she rang her bell for the 4th time in the night she was met with “what do you want now?” She was cold and uncomfortable as the bed is very old school compared to the one she had at the hospital. Other things occurred and I had a good talk with the RN and staff on today and let them know that if my Mom was crying in the night she was humiliated and uncomfortable, that something had to change. They were very understanding and I hope tomorrow has a different report. From there I went to Rae and Rogers and we had a visit until Emmy was picked up and then went to Family Thai for my early birthday dinner so that we could have it with Jake. It was wonderful and it was so nice to see Mam again as it has been a while. The meal was delicious and the girls (and Roger) gifted me with my own amazing Brunswick Bowling Shoes which I can’t wait to use at Encore. Earlier, Will asked if he could give me his present which he had found 6 weeks ago and bought with his own money. I love my mug and it fits in my car cupholder. We all went back to there house after dinner and played Gloom and Fluxx which was fun. I was wearing out and came home but it was a lovely birthday most especially by spending time with all my kids and grandkids in the same day
Jake’s phone is trippy. I hope Apple comes out with a version. Even he misses his Apple phone.
