Lois and I were planning to do our usual Christmas ritual – go to a movie. I had planned to work a shift at Lois’s so that two aides could spend the day with their family. Unfortunately, Lois was too tired to go out. We did update her email, cleaned out some old files and played a game Lois and I like. I would read from a book of two minute mysteries then we try to guess the answer. Lois is very good at these. On of the mysteries had to do with the way squirrels go down a tree. Lois knew the answer from all the hours of watching the squirrels from her dinning room window. We then searched thru her books and found several books of 5 minute mysteries and read a few of those also. Lois thought it was a great day. I enjoyed being with her longer than just a short visit.
Lois has a doctor’s apt. on Wed, Dec 28 for a follow up with Dr. Garbarino. We don’t really look forward to this visit as last time he stated that he felt she may have reached her potential. They will reevaluate Lois and see if there has been any change or improvement over the past three months.
If you have been sending Lois emails, thank you, she does enjoy hearing from friends and colleagues. She does not check her email everyday and sometimes it may get checked only once a week.
