I decided to stay in today.
I took my friend’s mother to one of the casinos for dinner because he had to work, and it was just too much for her.

I talked with him this morning and told him of the difficulty she had in walking (emphysema) and suggested he buy or rent a walker with a seat on it, so if she gets tired, she can just sit.

The line was so long it took 45 minutes to get through, and it was only when I went to pay that I learned there was a handicapped line that went much faster. She sat on a bench for the most part, waiting. She had a hard time when we left.

I tried to walk slowly, but she still had to sit a couple of times. The cigarette smoke in the place didn’t help her, for sure.

And when we got out, the rain was pouring down and the the wind was blowing like crazy. YOIKS!

Oh, too bad! I hope you have a restful day at home. We’re all going to be going to nap shortly.
