What a day ! Mum still snoring an hour before her club, opened her door a little and then just carried on making noise , she came out a bit bemused , breakfast , tea and tablets done , no wash (had shower yesterday so no real problem ) helped her dress and off we went , walk in the door and have a quick chat and in comes a pup jumps at everyone and manages to cut Mums arm in two places
bled quite a bit , between staff and I we cleaned them and put plasters on , all ok I headed off . They rang later to say they were taking them out to a garden centre and then to a restaurant for lunch . Picked mum yo happy as Larry , ask what wants for dinner .... not much I’m full up , then few minutes later says actually I will have dinner ! All fine , start watching the proms and daughter comes in and quietly chats with me , mum glares and tells us all to be quiet , other daughter comes in, gets glared at . Hubby runs off and hides ,offer to put it on in her room for her , NO ! We all tiptoe around , then she marched off to her room and turns and moans that I should like the same music as her , we do I replied that’s why we watched it too , stropped to bathroom , stropped to bedroom , shut her door very firmly , bet she is now snoring whilst I’m stewed up ..... the life of a carer what fun and interesting times . Not helping me win the battle of keeping her out of a home by saying she doesn’t affect us as a family much and is easy going
hopefully a happier day tom?. The day centre really does wear her out ,we have a few days of humpiness after , when does it become a hindrance and not a help ?!
