11:55 AM – She’s been relatively quiet so far today. I’ve heard her chatting quietly a couple of times when she came down to use the bathroom and there’s been a couple of times that she started downstairs and turned around and went back up. Maybe checking to see if I was here? Anyway, just thought I’d mention that since the chatting seems to be the new normal, I’ll just post about it when it gets really intense or stops altogether.
1:15 PM – I lied. I decided to post this because she called who is supposed to be her best friend, Jerry, stupid (see below.) She was out in the kitchen and out of the blue, started telling “Jerry” that the neighbors said that there were pythons here and he needed to be focusing on that. Then she kept repeating our address because apparently, Jerry couldn’t find the house, even though he is an officer. Then she called him stupid because he kept driving around and around the house. I was sitting at the desk listening and leaned back to watch her. She noticed me and told me to quit looking at her like that. I continued and she said, “Shannon, stop looking at me like that! You can move you know.” I told her that I wasn’t going anywhere. She then told me that an officer was supposed to show up to pick up his coat. I just told her, “OK.” She went quiet and after a while, she got up and started a cup of coffee and has been quiet for a few minutes. Oh, did I mention that I’m a police officer, too? She brought it up before and I think I mentioned it in a past post. I still can’t figure out when that happened.
2:40 PM – She’s still going on about that coat. She even had me come out and told me that it was Jerry Feester’s and that he left it here 7 years ago. She wanted me to try it on (it’s too small for me,) then I told her to try it on and it was slightly big, but would make for a nice winter coat for her (I think it’s hers anyway.) Apparently someone is telling her “fuck you” and “fucking bitch” again. I don’t know if it’s Jerry calling her that because she keeps reminding him about the coat or what. Interesting one-sided conversation.
4:00 PM – She’s still out in the kitchen chatting away. She’s starting to get a little loud, though. I just got a “Stop it! You don’t have to repeat yourself like an idiot. What, do you have Alzheimer’s?” It’s starting to get old, so I went out to tell her to knock it off. She said, “I’m just stating the facts.” Irritated, I said, “You’re stating the facts to no one! We are the only ones here!” I came back out here and she started talking about, “Making me out to be a fool.” Yep. Time to go egg it on some more. *UPDATE – She acted like a nut case while I just stood there and watched her. Finally, I got flipped off and she went upstairs. lol Finally, some quiet!
6:40 PM – I managed to get her to eat. She was chatting away out in the kitchen while eating, then it got quiet. Turns out she was crying because “Nobody believes me about all the pythons out there.” I tried again to convince her that it’s because there are NO pythons because it’s the middle of winter. That didn’t work. I just got told, “Go away. I don’t want to talk to you.” She sure does want to talk to invisible people though!
9:45 PM – Mom keeps asking “Jerry” why he keeps changing his name. Shes asking, “Why do you keep changing your name? I know you as Jerry Feester.” She just asked me, “What are you doing? Are you able to get rest?” I told her, “No, not with you wandering around the house talking to yourself.” She just turned around and walked upstairs.
