Pink Grandma looks a little frazzled.

Well, she's been at the nursing home for 24 hours and so far, so good. We shopped again this morning and after 3 stores I found some velcro tennis shoes. While we (SSIL and I) were trying to find the shoes, we found some velcro tennies shoes in Men's but not Women's. So SSIL got bored and went shopping around in a different department of the store. I wasn't giving up though--if they had men's velcro shoes, then women's must be somewhere. Well, way up high on a shelf (Walmart) was a pair mixed in with other women's athletic shoes. You know how they put one shoe on display so that you know what's in the box? Well, this shoe was not on display anywhere. So, hurray, I found some and only $10!! I bought some socks also and then we headed to the nursing home. We brought all the stuff we bought last night and the new shoes over to PG. SSIL pulls out the shoes to show PG and starts putting them on her feet. She is gushing over them and asks if he got a "bargin". He replies, "Of course, you know I always shop the sales. They were only $10." PG says, "I know you're a sales shopper just like me." I just roll my eyes to myself and laugh. What would she do without her super son-in-law:)

She looked uncomfortable laying in bed, but she said that she wasn't in pain. I think she's just a little disoriented. She asked if John (the administrator at the assisted living facility where she lives) has given away her room yet. And we try to console her and tell her that her room is waiting for her to get better and return to it.

I kind of think that she really doesn't care where she lives at this point. She really liked her stay at the hospital where she had surgery, and when the case manager was arranging her rehab care asking us which nursing home would we like PG to go to--PG piped in that it didn't really matter, she'd stay anywhere. Although she did express some concern last night that she'd have to get to know new people again at this new place. But we try to help her understand that she will be going back to her home. She doesn't remember things very well from one day to the next.

While out at occupational therapy today, she did notice that this nursing home has a Wii, so she was excited (a little). I hope she gets to play soon!
