Mom is sleeping in her chair next to me. When she wakes up she asks me random questions that don't make any sense, I just answer and smile to myself. She was awake at 4:30 this morning. Yup, that's what I said, 4:30 am. Not pleasant for me. I need a nap, but the roofers will be back shortly and then they will wake me up. Okay, they are back now. Mom somehow knocked over her water, she just noticed that. She does such silly things. Okay, some annoying things too.
In some ways I am not looking forward to Friday. I haven't put up the tree and have decided not too. It is in the family room which I have nicknamed the dungeon. It is difficult to get into and then to find the tree? Forget it. I also then would have to decorate it in some burst at a time. Just not up to it this year. Mom really doesn't care, so I am not going to do it. We aren't going to be home for Christmas anyways so it isn't like there will be presents under it. I am nervous on how mom is going to take staying at Tillie's for the night. I am bringing the sedatives with me just in case along with the rest of the medicines we need to take. I also am not wrapping any presents but Kathy's kids. Mom really doesn't care and we are opening them before we leave for Windsor. This is probably her last real Christmas. I anticipate her being more out of it next year. I hope I am wrong. Her memory is going slowly and from what some other friends say, she has about a year of good (well, to her good) memory left before she won't even know me. We shall see what 2010 brings. I hope a better year, although 2009 has definitely been better than 2008 was but not as good as 2006 and 2007. Those years rocked!
I hope you are enjoying your season and finding time to relax!
