At 2pm, I sped home and was relieved to see that the charger I'd ordered for my Mum's phone had arrived from Amazon. She hadn't been able to speak to me with her phone for over a week and had lost the charger. Before we went down the route of buying her a new phone, I'd ordered the charger.
I went straight over to the care home and plugged her phone into the mains, but it had been dead for such a long time it took ages to revive it! I stayed for a while and had a confusing conversation with my parents as to what date it was. My Dad had demanded that we go out and buy Mum clothes for a Valentine's party tomorrow but I refused, the thought of going to Tesco and picking out clothes filling me with horror. I haven't yet seen them wearing the clothes I picked out for them for Christmas!
What didn't help was the weekly planner they had in their room saying it was week commencing the 16th of December! I wished heartily that it was, as I'd be facing a Christmas in Mallorca again!
I made my excuses and left and drove home in the gloom. Back home I decided to give in to the inevitable and have a nap, so I fetched my gorgeous throw downstairs and curled up on a chair with an ASMR video playing. I slept for an hour and felt much more refreshed!
I definitely needed the sleep as I rushed about preparing the porridge and my lunch and then cooked the dinner tonight. Sophie turned her nose up at the pork steaks and had the second half of her lasagne instead! She managed to eat the carrots and my roast potatoes, though!
