Visit from a friend

Tuesday, June 21, 2016
Mom didn't eat very much again for dinner.  She ate a little more than half, but the portions were quite small today.  She ate all the Greek salad, some of the chicken and some of the rice.  She ate all the fruit cocktail.  It was really good.
I asked mom if Aunti Sumi had visited her today.  Mom wasn't sure, but there was a glimmer of recognition.  She thought maybe Sumi had come to visit.
Dinner was on time today.  My dinner was already on the table when I arrived at 5:05 p.m.  Usually we have to wait until 5:20 p.m.  Anyways we finished earlier than usual so had half an hour to kill before Card Bingo.  I got Donna and mom dressed in their coats and we went to sit outside for a bit.
We came back to play Card Bingo.  Donna wanted to know if we had to pay so I told her it was free.
While we sat at the table, mom grew anxious and decided that she didn't want to play.  She only wanted to watch.  I played for her and won twice.  How embarrassing!
After we got back to the room I phoned Aunti Sumi.  She had visited with mom and brought some snacks made with peas for her.  She talked to mom briefly on the phone and mom was all smiles and responded well.
Then we went to sit in the lounge with the fish tank.  The girls sat with Santa.  They were waiting for their hot cocoa.
