WOOHOO for your rain! Glad you’re getting some at last.

Hope she’s had a good day and has a good evening as well so you can relax.

Not a good day...very grumpy and snappy, but slept most of the day. No food, no drink, no pills. And we had to put up a rail on the off side of the bed.

Every morning I tell Suzye how the night went. In just a couple minutes she was sitting up with feet on the floor on the wrong side of the bed and going somewhere. And she moved the table to get there. Suzye tried to tell her she needed to lie down and get turned around to the wall side with the handrails. Mom snapped at her. Then I tried with the same results. Every time she was up she was very argumentative.

And the same when I got home. Finally got her to sleep. Then she actually pushed the button...and had done a 180. Got her toast and chocolate milk AND pills. When I took her tray she said, “You’re being awfully nice. How come?” *sigh*

This dementia sucks...and my sister thinks she meets all the criteria for Alzheimer’s. Tomorrow I’m going to the Alzheimer’s Resource Center to see what they offer.
