Saturday, July 2

Well, the grandchildrend and great grandchildren are not arriving until today.  Anytime now, actually.  Looking forward to the visit.

Cowboy is dressed in a nice red shirt and his new jeans and is feeling pretty good today. 

I went to the grocery store again yesterday and got a miniature cake for my great granddaughter who had a  birthday on Thursday and some cupcakes for the rest of us.  I seem to be making more trips to the store lately.  Can't seem to get everything on my list .  Always forgetting something.  Yesterday I intended to get tomato soup to go with cheese sandwiches and got chicken noodle instead.   It was in the wrong bin, I guess.  For my meticulous self this is not normal.  There is just too much stuff running around in my brain.

We will have company this weekend, again in August (my daughter) and then in October (my other daughter).  Good thing since we are not going anywhere.  Most years we make a trip or three during the year and it just seems like I should be able to pack my bag and go somewhere!

I am beginning to think about another round of painting on the house.  When we moved in 5 years ago my intent was to repaint everything.  The builder paint is so cheap and chalky and comes off when you try to wash the wall.  Part is done but have more to do. 

One of the things they suggest is that nothing in the environment changes for a dementia patient.  Wonder if that applies to painting the bedroom a pale green?  (it is cream now)
