We woke up this morning after a fairly good night's sleep, both only having to get up once, that for us is remarkable, so understandably, Mac was anxious to go to the loo...well, he walked to the hall and just stood there. I said, well you go first, he answered, where? I said to the bathroom, you go first, he answered, i haven't got any money to pay for that...' Well since we were both kind of half asleep, I did a double take and said, you don't need money,' he looked at me and it was really funny, with a kind of condescending look at a person who is rather low in intelligence...and said, 'comon now, of course you have to pay for this" Well i just said very firmly, "mac, you don't have to pay, just go', and he went and from then on it was if nothing had happened out of the ordinary...on to the morning - feeding our cat and fishes and feeding ourselves and doing our usual morning stuff...but I've been wondering if it was just part of his waking up fom a dream, but it was rather off putting, and then later, i found it rather funny...
Tonight he said, 'some people have problem with their brains - i know they get mixed up....i said well, you have a memory problem, he said, "yes i know but it's not bad", I said as long as we live in the moment, it's fine, he said, that's right, so i really don't have a problem...well I let that pass, as he really has enough to worry about living in the moment, so not about to make his life any harder...Just 5 minutes ago he asked where I'd go to sleep, and of course this is a common question at night and i answered - the usual place, our bed, in our bedroom, - o.k. said mac, that's true, right in that room there...right i said, just where you will sleep too.
In any case as long as he has happy memories i'm happy too, and tonight we found out that St. Henri, where he has the happiest memories now...are having an exhibit at the Fire Station where they have a historical society room, it is the Kids of St. Henri. in the distant past - we are going to check this out, and hopefully get to go to the exhibit..This made his evening very exciting, and so it goes...
Will keep you posted - g'nite
