Had to face my reformatting job today. Twenty-five pages was the goal and I made it, but not before I got really tired from the heat. We put the A/C on. Mom would be perfectly happy without it, sitting there with her winter nightgown, down comforter, and fuzzy slippers.

 Took a break and had lunch with Barb. Nice to get out. Important, too. We even stopped for ice cream, one of Barb’s favorite desserts! A nice afternoon. 

Back home, mom was rattling things in her room. I have a table in there with three drawers. She was going through them and asking me to get rid of stuff. Twice I had to remind her that the table was mine. The things in the table were mine also. She unearthed a copper bracelet, some brass light switch plates, and some paint samples. Having nothing better to do, she decided to clean house! 

She’s calling me now to take her lunch plate. She won’t wait too long and will keep calling me until I get there. Hold on… 

OHMIGOODNESS! Mom had unearthed some light switch plates with matching screws. I kept them in the drawer in a baggie so I would not lose the screws. So she put her uneaten potato salad in the baggie and told me to throw it away. In her room, nothing is sacred!
