New tops are in the closet

Sunday, October 16, 2017
Mom was halfway through her salmon dinner when I arrived.  It looked like she ate about half of everything.  She was in a good mood. 
I went to her room to water the plants, check laundry, etc.  I removed a few golf shirts.  Her new shirts were labeled and in the closet.  I cleaned the washroom too. 
Mom and Donna were sitting at the nurses' station.  I collected mom and brought her back to the room.  I put mom on the toilet, checked her diaper, etc.  No poop.  We went through her photo book.  She really enjoyed it.  Some photos she had me and her mixed up. 
We played cards with the usual group.  Joe was watching television.  I found it a bit loud.
After cards we sat around and waited for hot cocoa.  Mandy wheeled Anka over to our table. One of the nurses joined us.  She is Serbian/Croatian.  She and Anka sang some songs in Croatian.  They were songs about young women and finding love.  One was about a young woman who goes to the river to wash clothes.  Her mother is checking up on her.  She meets a man by the river and he makes the water dirty so she can't wash the clothes and has to spend more time with him. 
Mom didn't touch her hot chocolate or her egg sandwich so I ended up eating both quarters.
I brushed mom's teeth and washed her face.  She took a poop. 
We sat by the nurses' station.  Anna was chatting.  Anka does not like Anna.
Mandy said that she was getting married in February to a younger man.
