Trudy has been doing Mom’s hair for many years and she
does an excellent job. Each time it is cut it comes in whiter and whiter.
Usually I sit and talk to Trudy while she is working on Mom’s hair, but today I
had another stylist cut my hair right next to Mom and Trudy. I could hear the
stories Mom was telling Trudy about how she and Daddy were traveling and going
places. This was stimulated by Trudy saying she was going to Mexico on
vacation. Mom went on and on weaving intricate yet unfeasible stories based on
all of her travels in the past. One minute in Las Vegas, then LA, then in
Maine. It made me wonder how that mind of her works. It’s all in there she just
can’t put it together correctly. Trudy knows and can see how far Mom has
slipped into another world. She takes extra time and gives Mom special
attention. I tipped her a little extra.
We went to the bank to try and get my sister’s loan
processed. The paperwork wasn’t ready yet.
My sister came home with us to watch Mom while I went to
pick up a new TV with a friend. While I was gone my sister says Mom tried to
leave to go home at least four times. She would walk with her and guide her
back home. The afternoon Zanax puts her to sleep on the sofa and she is in bed
by 7pm.
