Sunday, May 12

Today is Mother's Day.  I got cards from some of the kids and grandkids and a couple of calls.  Yesterday my youngest daughter drove down and took me to dinner.  We went to TGI Fridays which is always good.

I went to see Cowboy today.  He was sound asleep when I got there around 10 AM.  I woke him up and we chatted a minute and then he went back to sleep.  At lunchtime I managed to get him awake and up and we went to eat in the dining area.  Had ham, sweet potatoes, green beans and blueberry pie.  Good lunch.  He didn't want to do much of anything.  We stayed in his room most of the visit.  He was in a pleasant humor and smiled several times and held my hand.  He just isn't altogether "present".  Think I will see if he is maybe not sleeping well.  He sure is napping a lot.

When we went to lunch one of the fellows came over in his wheelchair to our table and after working at it a bit he got the words out "Can I give you a hug?".  I said of course and gave him a big one.  He went off in his chair with a smile on his face.  

I have a busy week coming up so am trying to get my ducks in a row.  It would help if I would get out of bed.  It must have been almost 9 this morning.  I have been feeling tired a lot of the last few days.  Not sure why.
