As I sit here in the living room, I am not alone. This is for certain. I share this room with a mother-in-law and a father-in-law. Both are as silent as silent can be. No one has said a word in well over an hour. It is like playing the silent game... only everyone seems to be losing out.
Eloise went home today and I have to admit, I am bummed out. She really seemed to brighten the whole house with her presence. I will also admit I am worried about her. Her memory just isn't what it should be... or at least this is what she claims. She is talking about moving herself into a more restrictive setting in the near future to make sure that her needs are being met. There isn't anyone in the world who deserves more happiness than Eloise does. She is a stellar Grandmother-In-Law and she deserves no pain in life. If moving to this new location would bring her happiness and the feeling of security, then I think she should do it. I just worry that she think this is what she should do... and not what she wants to do. No one should do something just to make others happy. Making others happy is good... but it isn't everything. You cannot please all the people all of the time. She needs to concentrate on her! Anyways... I hope her flight went well and that she will be happy to get home. She deserves to be happy.
We saw the Catonsville crew last evening. I was glad to see them. They always brighten my day. Ten and KT, along with Rob, shared pizza from Cici's with us. I feel bad that we all flocked to Ten's house and invaded her living room. But, I hope she was as happy to see us as we were to spend time with her. Hopefully we'll meet up again tomorrow.
Dr. S. and I had a long talk this morning. She decided that I just needed to talk about what was in my head. She laughed when she heard that, despite the fact I can go back to drinking all the hot chocolate I want, I still prefer my TenTin Cocoa. I don't expect to change back. My sister-in-law, the special person she is, sibling of my heart, made me carob hot cocoa with a hint of vanilla flavoring. I say there is none better. I will not go back to regular cocoa easily!
The cat has decided that I make a pretty good cat bed. This, however, means that it is hard to type and I must rely on touch typing skills. She does not seem to understand that her Mommy is not much of a touch typer and that this is not the best place to take a nap. Oh, well. I think this is just her way of telling me to "Move away from the black box". I'll take that as a hint and sign off for the day. I hope everyone is having a much more exciting day than I currently am. Cat pillow out!!!
