Lent, Day 26

Must be day 26. Today wasn't a very good day. I have a tooth ache still. I couldn't remember whether I took any ibuprofen, so I didn't take anymore, sigh. I wanted to go take a nap, but I remembered someone said, "People die in bed." Not sure who said it, but I decided not to go take a nap, because I always feel cruddy when I wake up. Besides I needed to go over to Mother's.

About 4 p.m., I put my fleece jacket on. I sat in the rocking chair to put my snow boots on. I sat there because I really didn't feel like going anywhere. I was playing around with a fleece headband. I thought it would make a really great eye shade for sleeping, but I put it on my head & the next thing I knew, Don was walking through the door. He asked me if I had been out to feed the dog because I had a fleece jacket on, my boots & a fleece headband on. I was confused. No, I hadn't been anywhere. I finally woke up fully about 6 & realized I still had the fleece headband on. I asked him if that's why he was wondering if I'd been out to feed the dog.

I went over to Mother's to get the canned food I had left there. It was too late to do any calling on credit cards or the mortgage.

She said she had been discharged from home health & she was sad. I think it has done her a world of good, not only to have the physical therapy but to have other people coming into the home. Medicare won't pay anymore. I wonder how much it costs out of pocket.

Bedtime last night was midnight, straight up. I woke up this morning at 9:30. Finally crawled out of bed at 10. Looks like tonight will be midnight again.
