I grew up with pop, but lived in the south for 25 years and learned to say soda. So now I say soda pop.

Well mum has a limited menu right now but it’s all she wants. The night she came home I didn’t have many healthy soups on hand so gave her bean soup with ham and cheese toast. Then yesterday I ran to the store and got the a few containers of homemade soup, in chicken noodle and chicken with dumplings and chicken rice. And a few varieties of canned soup. So for the next few days dinner is soup and something. But I’m getting the water down her. Every time she’s up I’m offering water. She mostly sleeps though. I remember when I had pneumonia I slept for like a week. But there’s times I stand in the doorway checking to see that she’s breathing. Awrch it’s gotta be hard to be 94! She said today that home doesn’t seem like home, it looks the same but feels different.

I’m doing fine. Completely recovered and sleeping ok. Waking up a lot but able to go back to sleep.
