Oh Beth, I laughed when I read your post. I had just sat down to take a quick break after taking the last tray of Edna's cookies out of the oven. Instead of a double batch we made two single batches. The first one only got 2 cups of flour and was a little too crisp, while the second one got an extra 2 tbsp of flour and appears just right. Getting into personal care is very difficult, and something to be initiated before the day comes. Most people don't look far enough ahead to make it work as a smooth transition, so it becomes a crisis intevention and everyone is traumatised. Very unfortunate. I hope it works out for the couple, who are obviously close to you.
We were out for supper with Loren and his children on Friday night as it was Jeremy's birthday. A very popular pizza restaurant and very busy. The staff were overwhelmed and it took almost an hour for our dinner to arrive. It was noisy and hectic and both David and I were exhausted by the time it was over. Loren mentioned that they were probably going back again next month for Gillian's birthday, and now we're wondering if we could deal with a return visit.
