Easter Sunday



Well it has been a big week. Last Saturday we headed down to Kristen and Jason's wedding - it was beautiful and we are waiting to get some better pictures uploaded since our camera ran out of batteries right after Gary walked Kristen down the isle... (a rookie mistake I know!). Mom found the most comfortable cozy chair at the reception and the event went on around her. She lasted until the dancing got wild!. Home on Sunday. Michael and his friend Stephanie stayed overnight in Pacifica with us on Sunday night and we took her to the airport on Monday... Michael sat and watched tv and movies with Grandma all day Monday and was happy just to relax. He headed home to Laramie on Tuesday and told Grandma he would see her on Thanksgiving. Wed we had a visit from Hospice and Gary, mom and I got to sit and talk a bit with Cathrine. Gary and Joanna came in on Wed after a couple of nights on the central pacific coast and a night in Sausalito, they headed home in late afternoon after taking care of a few obligations for Candi. Thursday Mom and I had an appointment with Dr. Strauss. Her weight is stable and her blood presure is down... no need for pills, cept her pain pill which she takes occasionally. But no other complaints - what a trooper! I did a lot of spring cleaning in between visitors and mom's naps ... took two large bags of 3x clothes to the goodwill and made some room in mom's closet. It was great just to be home and spend time with her and not have to juggle schedules, chores and appointments around the work schedule. We need to just relax and rejuvenate. Mitch and Medody baked cakes on Friday night to take to the SF State Pow Wow on Saturday. Easter Sunday will be quiet... got the smallest ham I could find and will have an early afternoon meal.
