8:45 AM – As predicted, it’s been a challenge getting Mom up and trying to get her to shower and eat some breakfast. I went up to wake her up at about 8:30. She’s been downstairs 3 times so far. The first time, she asked what time her Doctor’s appointment was. I told her it was at 10 AM. She says, “Oh, I can sleep a little longer then.” No mom, shower and breakfast. The second time was a repeat of the first time. The THIRD time, she asked, “Is there any chance there would be pythons in the basement?” Where did that come from??? No Mom. No pythons. Shower and breakfast. “So I’ve got time to take a nap?” *face palm* I told her again; “Shower and breakfast. You’ve got a little more than an hour. I don’t want to have to race around getting you to the Doctor’s Office.” She asks, “Is there any way we can get a battery for my watch while we’re out?” I replied, “Yes. Now shower and breakfast.” She finally went upstairs, hopefully to get clothes and not take a nap…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
9:00 AM – Well, she wasn’t napping, but she was just sitting on the bed. I went up there to check and she asked, “Are there pythons in the basement?” No. Where do you get that? “Someone is trying to get through to me and tell me not to go down in the basement.” So don’t go down in the basement. The shower isn’t in the basement. Go get your shower. Look out M Night Shyamalan, Mom sees dead people, too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
9:35 AM – I give up on trying to get her in the shower. No time now. When she finally got down here a few minutes ago, she came back out of the bathroom started going back upstairs with a confused look on her face. When I asked her what was going on, she said: “Someone told me I don’t have an appointment today.” *nuclear face palm* So I told her, “Yes Mom, you still have an appointment today, but it’s pointless to try to get you in the shower as there won’t be enough time. Just go up and get ready to go.” So she says, “I’m sorry I don’t have the brain that you do.” *crickets* <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
