Another intriguing snatch of conversation

As I've mentioned previously, I fall asleep nearly every night to the sound of S talking to, and laughing with, her 'friends'. I am quite happy about this and it doesn't bother me really. Occasionally, I can't help 'tuning in' to what S is saying, even though I'm trying to get to sleep.

Last night when I was just about off, I was suddenly aware of this conversation: 'So is it good or bad?' (laughter) 'I don't know' (a gale of laughter) 'I think I'll go half and half!' (even louder laughter) and then...'Brilliant!'

I've no idea what she was talking about. But what does it matter if she's so happy?

  1. Many thanks for your comment, Racheyface. I don't know that I can really give you advice but I'll have a think about it and email you as that would probably be more appropriate than posting any thoughts here. But, if anyone else wants to pass on thoughts here, please feel free.

    I wish you all the best in a very difficult and demanding job, though I'm sure that you will find it very rewarding in some ways.

  2. I'd think racheyface that you need to talk to the supervisor and get permission. Some people think us bloggers are way off talking about our loved ones on here, that we are demeaning them; however, I do it to elevate my Mother's life past and present and honor her, and to help anyone I can about dementia or offer comfort and support. But if you don't use real names, I don't see what it could hurt.
