Mom was moved to rehab today around noon, over to Park Pointe. She really enjoyed the sunshine on the ride. She looked a lot better today, better rested. She is still weak with a poor appetite. Hopefully she will get better rest over at the home and along with that her appetite will pick up. She said her roomie at the hospital was "wild" last night and she did not get much sleep. I'm not at all sure what that means! LOL That poor woman took a spill feeding a stray cat, which is what I was sure would happen to Mom if she kept going out on the icy porch to feed the strays (she has since stopped doing that . . . and the strays have disappeared)! Anyway, I told her to eat up so she gets her strength back. She gave me a look . . . I'm pretty sure what that look meant. Niece Monica came to visit, Mom was tickled about that. Thanks Cousin! Address here is 721 E Benton Street, Morris IL 60450 if anyone wants to send a card we'll get it to her. Seems easier since we are not sure how long she'll be there.
Have a good Thanksgiving all! We will all go see her after our turkey dinner . . . which I guess I will cook! LOL I had a good giggle at work today. My new co-worker, sweet as can be, is a newlywed and making her first Thanksgiving dinner. She said she was going to make her mashed potatoes tonight, and hoped they would turn out. I told her to check out the Pioneer Woman's make ahead mashed potatoes (they are awesome), and she commented that she had never even peeled a potato. I was pretty incredulous (she is in her early 30's) and I said, "What!? You have never made mashed potatoes before?!" and she said . . . "Not from scratch . . . ". LOL is it just me, or is that not the cutest, funniest thing you have heard today? LOL Mom and I both had a good giggle.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Kathleen
