I didn't watch a cartoon with breakfast this morning because I had to get to work a little early so I could leave a little early (my job is flex time, I just have to work 8 hours in a row, doesn't matter when, during covid there were times when I had to go in at 4 AM and then was able to go home at noon). My one coworker was all "what are you doing here at 6AM, you always come in at 6:30." I had to go in early because we were doing a anointing of the sick/last rites with my grandma, with a bit of a St. Patrick's Day party and birthday party since my brother was born on the 14th and St. Patrick's Day is on the 17th, and I brought my balloon animal stuff since I learned how to do basic animals when I was a kid. On the way to her memory care I read some chapters of Jerimiah. Mskate and I got there shortly after my mom, so we just spent some time with her. She likes to read but struggles with big words, but we found that toddler "cardboard page" books are a good speed for her, and we found a nice Winnie the Pooh book. She struggled some with the book though even though it's all small words. It's sad. I made her a giraffe hat and dog, and she liked them. Later in the night I made some balloon animals for the residents and put them in the dining area. Since it's a Friday in lent we had cheese pizza and cheese bread. There was also some promo where we got 2 bottles of ranch dressing. The anointing of the sick was a really good ceremony, we had prayers, we laid hands on my grandma (and I put my hand on her with my grandpa's rings, so he was there with us), we all gave her a crissum blessing and I wiped the excess crissum on my dry skin and it helped moisturize it. When we got home I did some cleaning, showered, and now I'm writing this. I don't think I'll be getting to to writing stuff for my october blog today, too tired. Later.
