Fading, Fading...

First thing this morning my mother found the plastic bag of advertising that came with yesterday's Telegraph- and went through it item by item.

"What's this?"

"Advertising"

"I don't know what this is."

"More advertising."

"What's this?"

"It's all advertising. Take my word for it."

"What's this?"

Well, you get the idea.

When she'd been through it all- and I'd removed the pile from sight so she didn't go throught it again- she gazed into her empty cereal bowl and asked, "What do I do now?"

She's largely indifferent to music- and always has been. She's also very deaf these days.

oh well that would have been too easy

dad would have loved music
but the trashed his hearing

so its not an option for him either.
sigh proper "parenting" is just harder sometimes

content is good much better than
wandering around looking for you in the garden
and thinking you are a kid... and not finding you
that can't happen. sigh (nursing home job memories )
