Card Bingo

Friday, October 7, 2016
We had Maryland baked chicken thighs with oven roasted fries and mixed veggies (carrot, broccoli and cauliflower).  Dessert was rice pudding.
Surprisingly mom had not consumed all her beverages.
She had a good appetite and ate about 2/3 of her meal.
It was a lot of food and I felt quite full.
I asked Aileen about the entertainment in the afternoon.  She was annoyed.  She said that she had told me before that because of her hearing problem that she didn't go to the concerts.
Mom and Donna didn't remember.
After dinner mom went to her room and Donna and I followed.
Mom, Donna and Santa all won at the horse races.
It was a dark and stormy night so we played card bingo.
Anna and Santa joined us.
We had a nice time.
Mom was quite with it tonight.  I wanted her to try on one of my old tops and she obliged, but she really didn't like it.  She doesn't like boat necks.  We even went to look at her reflection in a big mirror, but she said it wasn't her style.

When I arrived the gang was sitting in the Fraserview Room watching the news.
Shanta's son was with her.
Everyone seemed engrossed in the news so only mom came with me.
I tried to get mom to put the cards in a sequence, but she was having difficulty.
After we had sorted out all the suits, I had mom say what the cards were. I had to help her. 
Then, Anna came by so we played card bingo.  Donna joined us too and then Michael and Shanta.
Anna won twice.  Everyone had a nice time and was disappointed that it had to end.
I put mom's laundry in the communal laundry bin.
Mom seemed a little foggy today.  Sometimes I wonder if they give her extra drugs on the weekends.
But she had a good time giggling with Anna.
