Mom was chewing on paper and there was a mouse

Tuesday, June 25, 2019
Mom was sitting at the nurses' station when I arrived.  I took her to her room to check on things.  Then, I took her to the dining room to sit with Edward and Donna.  Jackie arrived late.  I went back to mom's room to put away some summer tops that I had brought.  I saw a mouse.  It ran to Donna's bed and maybe into her closet.  I reported it to a nurse.
I told everyone at the table about the mouse I saw.  It might even have been a rat.
Mom was chewing on something and I tried to take it out of her mouse.  The aide noticed and called the nurse, but nothing really happened.  I got it out eventually.
I gave mom some bubble wrap to calm her down.  She drank her beverages.  I put the Boost in a plastic cup because she was squishing the paper cup. 
I gave mom Cheetos, deep-fried chicken skin, cherry tomatoes, etc.  Mom ate one spoonful of her pureed broccoli.  I was happy.
I moved mom to the fish tank room and continued to ply her with food.  She expressed interest in the banana so I peeled it for her.  She took one bite from the end.  She ate a slice of cucumber, a pitted cherry, more chicken skin, tomato, lentil cracker, Cheetos and her cheesecake.  I placed a spoonful of cheesecake in her hand and she ate off the spoon.  She ate a few mouthfuls. 
It was music night.  I sang along with some of the videos and she started to sing She'll be coming round the mountain.  I was surprised.  I moved her arms and legs in time to the music.  Sometimes she protested, sometimes she smiled.
