I had another lovely visit to mum today. I took my 3 year old son and she was sat enjoying the sunshine in the pretty garden, she was over the moon to see her grandson and showed him off to everyone!
The care home has a newsletter and there is a lovely welcome to mum in there and it says mum has made good friends with two other residents and they are affectionately known as the "three amigos"! So sweet.
She's had her hair and nails done and she's clean and relaxed. I couldn't ask for more. I am more than happy with her care.
My only bugbear is clothes! I regularly buy her new clothes but every time I go she is wearing someone else's tops, usually layered! Mum gets herself up and dressed in the mornings quite often and the care home have a theory that the lady next door thinks mum's wardrobe is hers so goes in and hangs her clothes up, then mum slips them on the next day!
It's not a big deal but mum has some lovely clothes (she's always loved fashion) yet she's wearing the jumper of a 95 year old lady! (No offence to 95 year old's fashion sense of course!).
Overall though I am a happy bunny. The sunshine helped x
