More Snow Melt

Catching up tonight

I’m going to up most of the night catching up on writing. I’m behind and I don’t like it. I need to catch up before Saturday because I want to spend most of the day doing reviews. I don’t know what the problem is lately, but I’m going to have to figure it out.

One of the problems is that Mom spends most of the day sitting on the couch planning what she’s going to do tomorrow. Also she gets angry because she can’t find things and thinks the items was stolen. Yesterday, I had her clean off her vanity and put stuff in a box. I figured if she did it she would remember and be able to find the stuff. I was wrong, last night she got angry because she thought I had take the items and threw them away. I know this is part of the Alzheimer’s symptoms and I’m just going to have to deal with it

I may have to start writing and working at night when there are less interruptions. During the day I’ll keep an open document and work when I get a chance. I can get Mom to do some work, but it takes thirty minutes or more to get her to do something. I run dishwater and remind her four or five times to wash the dishes. I’m almost at my wits end, perhaps a schedules would help.
