Nursing Home

Ok. Mom is in a nursing home. The care seems adequate, which is good, but the place is old. The hospital she was in is brand new, automatic everything, and the inner goof ball in me wanted to see what all positions I could get the bed into! Moms bed now has a crank. Not an old man, a crank, as in model T car. Mom wanted to be sitting up higher, so there I am looking for the buttons to push. I saw the funny crank things at the foot and passed them by.  Hah. Moms bed doesn't have that top crank, where it would be handy, no sirree.
At least it does have a mattress!

I am tired today.  I am usually at home in couch potato mode.  I did some more weaving of leaves last night while watching a John Wayne movie!!!  It's not often I get the remote to control.  
OH oh oh....and last night, the 3 girls showing off their prom finery to Grandma....it WAS priceless, mom loved it!

  2. I'm sorry that your Mom is in a nursing home. I used to run them for a living and I know it's not easy trusting the care of your Mom to someone else...

    so glad she saw all the girls because they looked beautiful!!
