I woke up at 8, but didn't get out of bed until 10. I was playing a special game that took an hour. By then Ellen had handled the pets. Tony called while I was getting dressed. He was sure that Mom was about to die. He had me talk to her for almost an hour. Of course she wasn't dying.
I finally got off the phone with him and talked to Hooch. Hooch was almost at Touchmark and filled me in. Apparently Tony is off his meds and not responding well to spending a lot of sleepless time with Mom.
I had breakfast, just before noon. Then I went out and mowed the lawn. It took me 3.5 hours. That included mowing the cul-de-sac edges and some time fixing a slipped mower belt. I was covered with dust when I finished, so the next thing was a shower.
I didn't feel like a sandwich, so we went to the Italian place. It was sunny and 77, a great time to eat outside. Of course we stopped at Tomlinson's first so Lucy would have a treat. While we were there I called Hooch. He filled me in on what's really happening. He said Mom's O2 sat was 65. I don't know why she's still alive. He also said that Tony had kept the attendants from giving Mom medication for 45 minutes. Dan has made arrangement for them to throw Toy out if he does it again.
After a wonderful lunch/dinner we went for yougurt. Then it was home to feed the pets.
The evening was spent watching TV. It's great to watch pre-recorded shows again. I love fast forwarding through commercials. Hooch called to talk while he's with Mom. We had a long conversation about lots of stuff. I just wanted to buck him up some. He's had a lousy year and this is a lousy time for him.
