Emails from moms.

These are the latest emails to mom. She does reply to my emails... but I don't post them because I didn't ask if I could and they are just full of instructions and stuff about Italy that makes me jealous.

Letter 7: Mia visits
Today... Saturday... Mia came over while lindy worked. All I will say is that at one point there was a ton of commotion coming from gramps area and so mg went back there they had gramps' chair(with him in it)all the way reclined-his head only inches from the ground-as they tickled him and jumped all over...
Gramps was a little traumatized... Poor guy!
Also Owen sprayed the orange bathroom spray into his eyes and I had to flush them with water... Lots more happened but those were the highlights.
Did you find vivoli?
Tell me what your doing and how it's going.
Love you

Letter 8: a cold for gramps
Gramps caught Henry's cold...tho he thinks it's from some sneezing man at goodwill the other day(yes I took him to goodwill). Can he have cold meds? During the day and at night? Will nighttime cold meds interact with his other medication? He is coughing at night :( poor guy! I feel bad for him.
Let me know
Love you
Dana

Letter 9: Home front
That's too bad that your backs are sore! Going slow can be frustrating but it's so glorious there I'm sure your just drinking it all in:)
Gramps slept alot during the day yesterday. So he was up till almost midnight whistling at the top of his lungs! Not the breathy whistle he usually does but really LOUD whistling! It was impossible to fall asleep. Henry woke up shortly after he stopped... Long night. I was grateful for a pot of good strong coffee this am(I got one cup...then gramps drank it all) speaking of coffee and gramps' love of it... He came out here 7 times(7)yesterday between 3-4:30pm asking for more! He kept saying "you probably don't make coffee do you?" I kept answering "I do in the morning but you drank it all" he would reply "there is no more? I was looking for some coffee)... he would repeat the quote from above...sheesh. Finally I made him some hot cocoa. He reluctantly accepted this substitution.
Speaking of hot cocoa...
Have you had any hot cocoa there yet?!
A scarf please... A good one :)
Love Dana

Emails from moms house

Letter 4: barking!
How do I make the barking stop!!! Henry can't take good naps with all the barking!! It's so horrible!
And I need gramps pin for Christmas shopping...

Letter 5: thanks
So I found the pin number after I emailed you... Sorry. The dogs bark out side all day! Not sure why. I have them in this am Sophie is sleeping right outside henrys door... Lol. She is such a funny girl. I am doing laundry today. What are you guys up to? Gramps is doing ok... Honestly not sure how you get shopping done at the store... He either corners people to talk about reagan or-if pushing the cart-gets in people's way on purpose and does that silly dance... Sheesh! Wish I could stick him in the cart. Anyway I got so frustrated yesterday that I left and forgot like ten things! O well. He is doing fine other-wise and loves the boys. Hope your having a blast!

Letter 6: Sophie
Well... I tried to let the little ladies in early last night cuz it was stormy and Sophie wouldn't come... Sophie wouldn't come in for her dinner last night either. Finally at bed time she came in. So she got soggy food... She did play fetch finally yesterday :)!
After trying to make plans to go Christmas shopping AGAiN yesterday gramps said he would just like me to do it... Sigh. I'm glad but feel guilty for being glad...lol
Gramps keeps telling me "where things are" in his area(whats in certain boxes and even where his coin jar is). He does it everyday "just in case" he keeps saying he doesn't know how long he will be around and someone needs to know where everything is... I keep telling him he showed me already and that you know but he gets a little worked up if I don't go... So thats exciting.
Oh fireneze!!! My city! I am so jealous! I hope it's perfect weather for you and that you think of me on those narrow cobble stone side walks :) And that dev and markle love it there!
Rabbit fur lined black leather gloves!!!
Love you!

Emails.

Letter #3 things are exciting here
So grandpa is like a big bald child who want as much attention as Owen and will talk over/interrupt Owen to get said attention from me. Pretty funny...poor Owen now has a temporary extra sibling to rival with... Gramps stopped 7 people at Costco(7!) and within 30 seconds of meeting/cornering them told them about being a former broadcaster and interviewing Regan...(this is way more embarrassing in person than when you tell me about it) I stood transfixed and did the countdown 3. 2. 1. Reagan!
Sophie and I are in a power struggle regarding coming when i call and playing catch and I'm not gonna lie-she is probably gonna win-but I'm giving it my best shot. She will sit for me woohoo! Sometimes I just say "sit" cuz I know she will obey even if it's not necessary.
Owen loves your jewelry(will explain that later) and I may have acquired an old navy skirt from a bag in your closet... Will pay for skirt... It looks great on me :)
Hope your enjoying your vacation!
Love you!
Dana
Ps I need gramps pin number! You no leavey

Emails from moms house.

We are currently residing at my moms house watching 3 chicken, 2 cats(Ava and alfie), 2 dogs(Winnie and Sophie), and one gramps(James) who has Alzheimer's.
This is a series of emails to my mom from me to give her some peace of mind.

Letter #1
All settled in:
Hey mom
We are settled in. Gramps tried to get his pills early twice... Lol. Everyone is fine. We had taco bell for dinner :(. What is your iPad apple ID password? I want to install a free app...
How was the flight? Is Verona beautiful?
Miss you
Dana

Letter #2 Oh yeah:
I forgot to mention that when we arrived there was a bird inside the house...mg caught it gently and let it go. Also Sophie just came in after giving me the run around for some time and then scratching at the door... Then she proceeded to bark viciously at Winnie... That's why I'm awake at 1:30 in the am... Those dogs
