Grandma moves to her new digs this morning. I'm going to get her at 9 am, pack up the few things she has at the nursing home, and take her to Oakridge. They have a surprise welcome back party planned for her so she'll be all flustered. I just hope she likes how I have her apartment set up. I expect we'll be rearranging things as she decides she'd like things elsewhere. Last thing remaining to do is to get a phone for her that's simple enough to use and has speed dial settings that don't require seeing a menu. I never did find the phone from her old apartment.
She's all moved in except for a phone which I hope to deal with this evening. She really seemed to enjoy eating lunch with her friends. So many people stopped by to welcome her back, and her party didn't even start til 1 pm! Hope she does well.
Finishing this entry Fri morning because I was so exhausted I fell into bed as soon as we got home from supper. I was too tired to cook and people have told us that the Golden Corral buffet restaurant really does have good food and is nothing at all like Old Country Buffet. We were going to try it Saturday but it was too crowded so we decided to go tonight, but it was after 7:00 before we left. I almost fell asleep in my food. Ate way more than usual protein, but that may not be a bad thing. I needed to restore my strength.
I did buy a phone for Grandma but it doesn't have an answering system so I may get a separate unit that hooks up to it. I wanted a phone in place last night so she can enjoy calling Leone and all. I did get frustrated trying to explain to her how to use it and how to find the buttons she needs, but I did the best I could.
