Despite of me worrying mum would not want to spend her savings on a care home, she seems to enjoy this bit of luxury. I was allowed to see her in the room today, as the other two beds are vacant; yes, multiple occupancy bedrooms are standard in care homes here, whether government ones or private. I found mum covered in a crispy, hotel quality white bedding. I bet this care home residents are those who have loads of money so possibly hotel quality bedding is an attempt to make them and their family happy.
Mind you the care home cost is just a tiny bit higher than full price of government one, although meds and pads need to be paid separately while they are free for residents of government care homes.
Mum again said she likes that place, even though she feels isolated while on her own in the bedroom. I’m glad she’s happy. That makes me think (again) I just need to find a job now and all will be well.
I’m quite tired now (at 17.18), I was on my feet from 7am as I had to go to Smardzewice to get mum’s medical history. I also bought sleepers for mum but they’re too narrow, so I need to exchange them tomorrow.
I had lunch in town, pork in mushroom sauce, potatoes and, what I call ‘Polish coleslaw’ (shredded vegetables in vinaigrette dressing), it was very nice. I’ll probably have a shower soon and then then do nothing for a bit.
Nothing strictly autistic to add at this moment but I guess everything that happens to me is about autistic life, wouldn’t you agree?
