A girl at work gave some of us tattoo valentines. I stuck mine in my purse to put on my grandma. I'm trying to make the time we spend together fun for her. She's not talking much anymore-of course-I talk enough for us both-but am trying to listen more and be patient. Last nite was Family Nite at the nursing home and her husband and I went. I really had a great time. They had a great entertainer with kerokee music. He tried to get me to sign twice-but I'm a little shy in that department, but I loved singing along(Patsy Cline, George Strait, Josh Turner songs to name a few-new all the words-since I love country music!). I tried to get my Grams moving a little and did get to clap some and saw her mouth moving to one song!
If you have any ideas for fun things to do -let me know! Sherry from

Hello Rebecca,

Visiting nursing homes can be depressing, but also brings a lot of pleasure. I think this is wonderful. Nothing better to liven them up than good old fashion country music.
ReplyDeleteYou are a wonderful granddaughter. I love that photo of the tattoo on her arm :-)
ReplyDeleteI love country music too. My friend wrote George Strait's song "I Hate Everything" and Deanna Carter's song "Strawberry Wine" :-) We've been friends since back in the days of "albums", as in vinyl :-)
Blessings,
Marcia
