I called mom this morning. She's doing better, although had a hard night. They took her off the morphine because she asked the RN what happened to the turkey...and because it was wearing off pretty quickly. Apparently the RNs are teasing her about turkeys now. They took her to PT this morning and have worked out a strategy to get her into the house when she is sent home. Good news.
I called B last night for a mundane issue and learned that she is down south at her parents' place because her father is dying. So please keep her in your thoughts and prayers.
Last night was the last night of the "switch" in roles that S and I have experimented with. It's been pretty intense. First off, it's a lot of work having to be in control of things all the time, especially when the person in question really likes being in control. Second, we've never spent this much time together. I'm a little bit ready for a day/night to myself. I will say that I did ask to have dinner ready when I got to his place both last night and the night before. I could get used to that.
I had another dream that I'm interpreting as being about the work situation that's been on my mind. It was less traumatic than the previous nights...but still, I wish this was out of my subconcious. I am so happy about the long weekend!

Good to hear about Mum!
My Dad tried to convince the nice nurse person at the hospice that there was a dangerous dog in the little cabnet in the wall for pills.
Thoughts for B though!
I will definitely be thinking about B - so sorry to hear that. I had a weird nightmare last night - lately my nightmares are in the occult realm and not in the social realm (i.e. someone being cold to me) like they used to be - can't figure out if it's good or bad! Thanks for pickles - can't wait :)
So sorry to hear about B's father. They're in my thoughts.
Good to hear about your mom. It must have been fun in her mind the past couple of days. Turkey! *G*
Good luck with the work situation, and letting go of stress. *hug*
