Isobel had a busy day of visits today.

Louisa and Teri from the school went in at mid-day and supervised lunch which as usual was eaten in full. They found Isobel very tired but otherwise OK.

Keith and Liz went in during the afternoon for what was intended to be a brief visit once they had seen how tired Isobel was; but Liz left her handbag behind and they had to drive back to collect it, finally leaving Isobel only five minutes before I arrived. Apart from being so tired that she dozed off a couple of times, they found Isobel in a good mood and able to talk about the film she was watching, Mary Poppins.

I arrived at ten past five and found Isobel in a good mood. She remembered Keith and Liz's visit (At the time I thought they had left half an hour before on the basis of the visitors log, I was unaware they had come back for Liz's handbag and that I had only just missed them). Isobel was a bit hazy about Louisa and Teri's visit. Isobel was certainly tired, but was still watching Mary Poppins with considerable attention. I fed Isobel her tea of spaghetti rings on a couple of rounds of toast. For some reason she had not ordered any desert, this is unusual but she said she had not fancied one. I have reservations about this statement as she would have ordered this meal early yesterday and would not have had any idea how she would feel today. I'll keep an eye on this over the next few days. It would be better to order a desert which is left partly uneaten - the staff are used to this. Anyway, Isobel will not starve as she had a banana and two lots of grapes after tea. Although clearly tired she watched a Wallace and Gromit film, commenting occasionally on the plot and characters. Isobel ate a little box of four Ferrero Rocher chocolates before I went home at 7pm.
