I try to have lunch with my mother once a week, usually on Wednesday, though this week it was Thursday because of the dementia support group yesterday. She was in good spirits and our conversation mostly centered around what I was going to do for the rest of the day. After asking me several times what I was doing the rest of the day, we went to lunch where she asked me again several times what I was doing the rest of the day, though at least once she said "I may have asked you this before, and if I have forgive me, but what are you doing the rest of the day?" I was surprised that she realized that she might be repeating herself.
When we left the restaurant, she passed a woman and they had a friendly exchange, like old friends do, and that made me feel very good.
All in all, this was a good visit. I like days like that.
