Mom had a great time at New Vista.
She said she threw a ball with lots of power.
She said she was strong.
She said they were put into groups and they sang.  She said she sang well.
She was very happy.

Mom was not in a good mood.
She said she didn't enjoy New Vista today.

Mom didn't go to New Vista on Tuesday, April 14th because she couldn't find her key.
I wonder if it was because the Health Nurse phoned her and she thought it was New Vista.
She was dressed and ready to go.  She went downstairs and then she was embarrassed because it was the wrong day.  I think she was flustered and forgot to put the key back in the drawer.

She'd been complaining about a pain in her shoulder, but it was fine on the weekend.  I had already made a doctor's appointment for Tuesday, April 21, but I ended up cancelling it because mom said her shoulder was fine.  She was very excited about going to New Vista and was ready to go at 8:30 a.m.  I told her to take a nap.  I told her that she would get a call to wake her up in time to go to New Vista.  I forgot to call her, but she made it there fine.

I called mom this morning at 8:30 a.m. as usual.
I asked her if she was excited about going to New Vista.
Mom was flabbergasted.  She had completely forgotten about going to New Vista.  She was worried that she wouldn't be ready in time.  I asked her how her hair looked.  She said it looked fine.  I told her that she had another hour before they came to pick her up.  She was fine.
When I saw her for dinner she thanked me for reminding her about New Vista.
She had a really nice time.  I was surprised that she was so energetic.  Recently she had seemed rather dopey and I worried she was taking a turn for the worse.

I called mom at 8:30 and she was disoriented.  She said she wasn't ready to go to New Vista today.  I told her she had another hour.  I called her again at 9:30 just to check.  She said no one from New Vista had called.  Anyways she said she was going to wait downstairs.

When I arrived in the evening she was in a good mood.  I read the breakfast lady's report and she said that mom had already eaten breakfast and was dressed and ready to go.  I found a boiled egg.  I guess mom made a boiled egg, but then didn't eat it.  I chopped it up for our salad.

Mom had a nice time at New Vista.

Mom was looking forward to going to New Vista.

Mom was anxious and distressed this a.m.
She said she was ill.
I told her to rest and that I would call her again.
She said that she had already told someone that she wasn't going to New Vista today.
Luckily I had hired a support worker from St. Elizabeth to help my mom today.
Mom couldn't remember where the key was so I got a call from Holly.
The key was found, but then New Vista didn't pick her up so I got another call.
I called New Vista and they told me that my mom said she wasn't going.
Ryan said he would come and pick her up and Mula stayed with mom until he came.
No more phone calls so will assume everything went okay.
