Another month, another (short) blog...

Still here..

Deep in a completly different waking/sleeping pattern as the FIFA World Cup reduces us in Asia to zombies....games starting at 11 pm and 3 am.....it is HARD!!!

Japan did amazingly well and earned respect.
England is somehow amazing us all and got through to the semi finals.

Apologies if all of this means nothing to you :-)

Okaasan.
Yes, she is fine. 
I haven't actually seen her for 2 weeks because I had a trip away to see a friend...and then there is football...and guests staying...and a tree in the garden infested with aphids holding a mass rally...

Okaasan.
The care home said they had an extra place in another day of day service. Still in the same building, on the 5th floor, same staff, bigger group.
Singing, exercises, handicrafts, chat, and lunch....all very good.

Dear Son went on Friday to help Okaasan on her first day in the group. The staff were worried that she might panic because it is a bigger group, so they asked him to attend. But she was fine....friendly with people and no sign of aggression.

Really we are pleased she has settled into the routines of the care home. Talking to other residents and understanding that this place is her home.

While we focus on football, the lack of summer, and aphids.
