U.K. Duty Visit - Day 8
This is yet another largely gray & gloomy day with nothing startling to report. I feel “over the hump” but will no doubt be irritated by this cold for many more days to come. I have adequate voice to enable communication but I definitely “sound funny” especially to my own ears!
We continued to plow through photos and memorabilia, a long morning of it, but we think we are near the end of discovering any more caches not yet reviewed. Now will begin the process of seeing what are duplications (or nearly so) and what most definitely need to be scanned before we separate - not an easy exercise in itself. We (Pam, really) have decided to make up one small album of modern pictures for Mum-Mum, using only those in which she still may remember the subjects or locations.
We finished up “Pam’s stew” with potatoes & vegetables as our primary meal and after a while left to visit Mum-Mum. We were all delighted to see how much better she looks and how much brighter she acts & speaks, although the memory lapses are still rather disturbing to us, as we have not really grown accustomed yet – especially when she looks so well.
We had intended to go out for “Sunday Dinner” until we realized that tomorrow is Valentine’s Day itself, meaning crowded pubs/restaurants, slow service & probably expensive “special menus” so after leaving the hospital we went to Waitrose & bought supplies to enable us to make it through until Monday morning.
