Its been awhile, sorry. Nothing much has been going on except the continued craziness of mother. She has been talking about Erik for the last 5 days and about going somewhere but the conversations dont go like this. It is a constant game of trying to figure out what she is talking about and once we figure it out the cycle starts over and we have to play "the game" again! Repeat and pete were on a boat...

I will be posting a lot more and hopefully getting everyone else involved. I'm going to try and post a little something at least daily which I know is thinking positively but I will try.

Can't believe its been so long

I was just kind of looking at mother and thinking wow, the years have flown by and look at her now. I feel like it was just yesterday when she was constantly sweeping the same spot on the kitchen floor (it was probably about 2 years ago).

It seemed to give her such satisfaction "helping" out around the house. I wonder why she stopped?

We had a full house this weekend. Our friends Vanessa (who mother knows quite well and loves), her sister Rachael, Becky, and Brianne came to visit and mother was on her best behavior. I feel like there's something in her and whenever we have company she puts on a good performance and when I say good performance, don't think she's anywhere close to acting normal. Today when Vanessa and her sister left Mother stood up and went to Rachael and gave her a hug, it was sooooo cute. oh, mother.

Sometimes I feel like I have a stalker and her name is Mother! From the time I got up untill now she's has asked me 8 times if I had to work and what time. On top of that everytime I go somewhere she follows me asking me if im ok and if i have to work. Silly goose.

I was nibbling on a ice pop today and she says "there's one for me" and I of course know shes talking about an ice cream sandwich and said yes in the freezer. She went into the kitchen and came back 10 mins later empty handed. There are only 2 things that she knows the location of: her pepsi and her little debbie cakes, haha. So, i had to go get her her ice cream sandwich.

Then she got up and pointed to the tv (we were watching the  phillies) and points to the soft pretzel sign and says "do we have them?" She always loved them, glad to see she still does.

And for the big kicker. She's lying again. She keeps telling us she was outside talking to the neighbor about what hes doing to his driveway. Melanie is with her all the time she isnt going anywhere. Oh well, we'll just keep playing along as we always do.

Eureka

Wow, I'm so impressed with mother. I put on 10 things I hate about you and at the end she said "that guy was so good, you know he died" she was talking about Heath Ledger. So amazing.

On the other hand, she keeps asking me where Meredith is which is my name but she is actually talking about Melanie. I'm used to it by now I just go along with it.

Sleep, Sleep, and More sleep.

Since I just started it I'm going buck wild with posts, there's just so much going on with mother so I'm trying to remember and post as much as I can.

We like to joke and call mother Sassy (may she rest in peace) who was our cat who slept 20 hrs a day, ate a lot, and faked injuries for attention because well mother does the exact same.She'll come down from her room and sit and "watch tv" on the couch but really she's sleeping and I never know that someone could fall asleep in such weird positions:

You can do it!

While on our way to New York to visit the relatives the AC was blasting and mother was cold so we told her to close the vent and this is what happened...

Don't worry we did it for her eventually but we let her try at first.

And yes Julia is yelling for Nanny, who is mother.

Reverse Pouring

Welp, she's onto another phase in her life. Not only does she call every small animal and child "baby" but now she doesn't quite grasp the concept of pour a drink. While having a near empty glass next to her and a bottle of her liquid crack aka pepsi next to her she picks up the glass and pours the contents back into the bottle. Now, she asks us to help her because she can't figure it out but i must say 1 out of 10 times she gets it right.

Here we have her succeeding, well done mother, well done.
