Mom stories continue...

[susandennis]

So today Mom moved into the guest room in the nursing wing (called The Cloisters). Dana got her settled in and then got the hell out of town and went back home to Jacksonville.

Polly is on duty and just sent me an update. She reports that Mom has already charmed the socks off of everyone on the staff. Polly said she stopped by after Mom had been there a couple of hours and found that everyone working there was tripping over each other to 'do' for Mom.

She also reported that Mom's room is the first one in the hallway. It's behind some double doors that are locked by a code. She says:

For future reference, the code is 1234. Do you think you can remember that? In case you can NOT, the secret code is printed in LARGE numbers on a bright yellow piece of paper for all who venture into this inner sanctum.

So it looks like the next big hurdle is my sister. My brother and his wife are going to be there when my sister gets there next Saturday but go home at the end of the weekend. Last night I remembered Tivo. My sister and her little rug rats will, no doubt, totally fuck up the whole TV set up. I will ask her to use one of the two other TV sets if they need to watch TV, but I'm not hopeful. She'll also fuck up the PC but after she's gone, I can walk Polly through that fix. Polly would never be able to handle the Tivo.

Oh well. That's a battle for another day.

It's so hard to have non-techie relatives. :) I'm so glad both parental units are computer people.
