Today is Mom’s birthday!
We went to a Tui Na massage appointment for me. The lady, Li Jie, turned out to be very fun to talk to. She spent 3 hours massaging me! I think she liked Mom and can relate to her having an only daughter. She can feel the love of my mom towards me. I am lucky.
I did feel better after the massage! She is so in-tune with my body…very interesting. My neck felt more relaxed.
Then we went to Ono Poke in the mall. We had fried rice, fried chicken, and some poke. Strange combo lol! But that’s what Mom liked!
Then we went downtown so Mom can get her watch battery replaced. She was thrilled about that lol.
Then we went to Arc’teryx. She’s been wanting a fancy rain jacket from there.
A cute staff helped us. Mom was kinda flirty with him lol. He was pretty funny too. She said she liked the jacket he was wearing, probably because he was cute. She complained how ugly the pumpkin pie orange jacket was, the guy joked that he has one.
He wasn’t very good at helping Mom put on her jacket. He is just a kid after all. Maybe 18~22? He was not awkward though. He still had acne, but he would grow into a cuter guy once that skin clears for sure.
I asked Mom to try on a few more things, and she decided on another inner jacket. The two jackets came to $650 or so. No sweat! It’s so great to have money!
Then we wanted to look at their bags. There was one tote bag, which was ugg as hell. He said it was waterproof. I said, but it’s wide open! It didn’t even have a zipper or a lid. He said it’s very good for holding water. HAHA. He was quick!
Then we went to Fairway to buy more jackfruit.
For dinner, we had jackfruit, persimmons, pineapple, and the canned Thai Chicken Rice soup that I’ve been looking for forever (found at Fairway!) and canned Clam Chowder.
This trip I feel that Mom is less focused. I’d tell her a story and gets none of it. I got frustrated with her at some point, and she was upset too.
I’m a little bit concerned that her mind is deteriorating. I guess it’s bound to happen sooner or later…but I feel that it has more to do with her being unfocused than being less smart.
Maybe because she hasn’t been sleeping well…
She is trying to get herself off the sleeping meds.
I think we need to go to stem cell therapy in January.
It’ll help with her anti-aging and her diabetes.
Her diabetes meds are what started this whole sleep issue.
I noticed in me that I’m grumpier this time. Less cheerful.
Maybe because I’m on my period?
Maybe because I’ve been stressed.
My mood is ok, kinda even, but I’m not as overjoyed and laugh-easy.
Or maybe it’s perimenopause lol
I’ve decided to not renew my Hampton membership.
Fun dinners alone ain’t cutting it. 2 people already can’t come to the first core group meeting. The thought of
I’ll try Mentorpass.
