Morning Conversation

Here is a snippet of our conversation while on the 5 minute drive to St. Leonards where Mom participates in adult day care.

Lily:  "Oh am I going to that place where they all are half asleep and then there is me just sitting there."

Kerry:  "Yes, Mom.  They are not all sleeping.  You enjoy your visits there."

Lily:   "Yes they are.  They are all old in their 70's."

Kerry:  "Mom are you old?"

Lily:  "Yes, I am old but I can still do everything I used to do.  One day though it will all go kaput and be all gone."

Kerry:  "Well Mom,  what am I going to do with you then?"

Lily:  "Just put me in the grave.  I hope you have the money or else they will just leave me in the snow. "






By the way I left Lily drinking coffee sitting next to another lady and they seemed to be enjoying each others company.

  1. She looks content there! And her words about hoping you have the money sounds like something from my mother!
