I missed the email that she didn't want to go to the Senior Center today. When I went over to the house, she looked really tired, I convinced her to at least go out and have a cup of coffee. We took the coffee over to a small park and just sat in the shade. It helped he a lot to get out and she was glad that she did. I forgot my camera to take pictures. It was a nice and relaxing day and we talked about...everything. She said  something like 'It makes it easier to go out when  you have a nice friend to take you.' She's sweet.:)

We just visited when I came over today. She was upset about a few things so we just talked about what was bothering her. I think it helped.

Jerry had her cast taken off on Wednesday. When I came over today, she didn't want to do anything or go anywhere, it just hurt too bad. I know the feeling :( I mentioned it would get her mind off of it if she went out. We ended up just visiting today. I went and got her a cup of coffee and came back and helped with her laundry. I hope she has a good weekend! 
(I think I fixed the blog to the colors she chose in the beginning. I still need to fix some things, but it's up! :) ) Enjoy reading! 

I called last night to remind her I was coming over today. She talked about how nice it was to see Cork and Dalleen and the rest of the family. She said it was nice on Saturday and it was "What Sheri would have wanted." It sounded like it was nice. Terry planted her flowers for her and "Had a heck of a time getting it in there."  I took her to Walmart to pick up a few things and when we got back home, Meals on Wheels left a note at the door. They didn't leave her meal so I called to have someone bring another one out. She did have some food in the fridge though. Jamie is going to take her to her Dr. appt. tomorrow and hopefully get her cast off. I reminded her I would be there on Friday to take her to the Senior Center. (Next Tuesday I'll come over a little later if I can so she doesn't miss Meals on Wheels.)

This was a sad weekend for Jerry, she lost her daughter on Sunday. She was upset and sad today. We talked for a little bit then went to Walmart and got a pretty flowering plant to plant in Sherri's name. We even got one of the flowers that Sherri made and put it with the plant. It's a Annual so it will come up every year...and it attracts humming birds :) Jerry said "Oh, I love humming birds." She said she sits outside sometimes in her chair, so she will be able to see it and watch it grow. She picked out a spot for the plant in the back of the house. It was too hot to plant today; Jerry said that Cork would plant it when he came in a couple days.

Today was my first day back with Jerry! I met the nurse outside as I was pulling up and she said Jerry was anxious but wanted to go to the Senior Center today. They didn't have a lot of people show up, but it was still good that she went. They usually perform at the end of the month, so we went over a little bit later to watch. Not a lot of people were there so they didn't perform this month. We still got to sing with them. Jerry will perform with them next month. Jerry decided to have lunch and coffee there too. The coffee "Was so good." We saw a few people that we knew from before. We went to Walmart after to pick up a few things and we lost each other! I went to pick something up and came back and she was gone. We found each other again...whew. I mentioned to her that maybe on Tuesday when I come over we could go for a ride in...I wasn't sure what to call Terry's car and asked Jerry, what is it? She laughed and said it's a... "Puddle jumper." It depends on how hot it is, we'll just play it by ear. 

I stopped by in the afternoon on Wednesday to ask Jerry about her lunch with Glenna. She said she had a good time and was glad that she went. She seemed happy that day.
Jerry is so sweet! It was my Birthday on Wednesday to and she called me to tell me Happy Birthday! She even told me she got me some flowers and a card! She said she picked out the color of the flowers because “I thought that color looked like you.” The Birthday card was the sweetest card ever! What a special day. Thanks Jerry! :)
She called me early Friday morning and said she didn’t want to go to the Senior Center; she was upset and she didn’t want to put me out. I told her she wasn’t putting me out and I was planning on taking her. We ended up going and I’m glad we did. It was fun singing, and at lunch we sat at a table with a couple of men and one other lady and visited. They were all telling jokes; it was funny and made us laugh. When we got back to her house, we went over the monthly calendar/schedule from the Senior Center. She seemed excited over some of the activities there are to do. (She put the calendar on her fridge if someone wants to check it out.) I circled the activities that she was interested in.

I talked to Jerry about the lunch she missed on Wednesday. She said she would try it again next week. When we got to the Senior Center, there was a man sitting outside on the bench and she said “Hi, you’re a cute fella.” Victor wasn’t there again today and everyone was saying “He must have a girlfriend.” Glenna came out to the Senior Center today too, she even stayed for lunch. They talked afterwards and Jerry will be going to lunch with her next Wednesday the 14th.
(There is one picture of Glenna, Robynne and Jerry on photobucket.)

Jerry was supposed to go to lunch with Glenna today. They were running a little late to pick her up. I called her and let her know. Meals on Wheels came and she ate that instead. Glenna really wanted to take her out. Hopefully she will next week. I’m sorry she missed it; I know she was looking forward to it.

Jerry missed Glenna today at the Senior Center. Victor wasn’t there either; everyone seemed to be at a loss without him. There was a performance in the dining room so they sang songs for a bit then left early to watch a man sing on stage. Jerry said she really liked to have someone singing while she was eating. She thought it was ‘nice’. He was a good singer too. At one of the other tables there was a mechanical kitten; we went to look at it when Jerry was done eating. It was a white kitty named Snowball, I think. He moved his head, closed his eyes, meowed and raised his paw and rolled over to sleep. Jerry thought it was cute. One of the other ladies daughters bought it for her. After I dropped Jerry off I got a call, her friend Glenna wants to take her out to lunch next week. We set it up for Wednesday :) (She asked me to tell Mandi “I love her. She calls me every day.”)
