Thanks OHH..

I plan on taking them up to Mr'P and take him outside and he can peel and cut them. I bawl when doing onions, he doesn't. He even eats them like apples YUCK lol... told him he wouldnt get kisses if he carried on eating them like that too often lol

He wasn't happy when I rang this afternoon.. Just with me.. He had eaten in the lounge and the blokes made a banana loaf.
He only ever went out a couple of times in the other home.. Was never that he couldn't.. he just wouldn't. he is a Martar and thinks it hurts me if he doesn't do things.. I learnt that years ago.

I told him many many times he could have gone to the Men's shed we had here. But no. We used to go to Senior Citz but then he didn't want to.

I think his biggest problem is admitting he is getting older and can't do what he used to. And he just stopped one day. And now physically he is paying for it.

I stopped at the oppy on my way home and scored a free Allyson Gofton Cookbook. And a pretty top for $1.

There was a darling little older lady that was taking a bag in. She wouldn't let me help. But as I walked past her car as I took my free book back to the car before I went into the second building I noticed her car rego ran out in July. So I went in and whispered to her. She has parkinsons.. She gave me a big hug for telling her and one of the ladies who works there who is 80 but more like 60 and she came out and lined up for one too... And she also thanked me for telling her.. It was only that Ive only just done mine that I noticed.



Its an easy thing to forget. Im guessing this lady has to be in her 90s. The fact she is still driving is wonderful.

I realized this morning , that I've been spending time with older people other than my grandparents since I was 9-10. But I know my heart is too tender to be able to work with them in the rest home situation, cos I'd be a broken mess all the time when they pass.
I take my hats off to people who can tho.
